About the Role

At Pavago, one of our clients is hiring an Executive Assistant to provide high-level support to the CEO of a well-established commercial furniture manufacturer’s representative group serving six U.S. states.

This is more than a traditional administrative role.

You’ll serve as the CEO’s trusted partner—managing executive priorities, coordinating communication, overseeing calendars, supporting proposals, maintaining CRM data, and improving day-to-day business operations.

You’ll also play a key role in keeping projects organized, preparing business documents, managing sales-related administrative tasks, and identifying opportunities to improve efficiency through technology and AI.

If you’re highly organized, proactive, detail-oriented, and enjoy helping executives operate at their best, this role is a strong fit.
