About the Role
You’ll be the operational backbone for a growing advisory and legal services company. This role is ideal for someone who loves variety, learns fast and wants to be part of building and scaling something from the ground up.
You’ll move between operations, analysis, research, investigative support, and special projects.
If you’re energized by solving problems, making systems smoother, and using AI as a force multiplier, you’ll fit in well.
What You’ll Do
Manage day-to-day operations: scheduling, workflows, internal systems client processes, and task coordination
Use AI tools to streamline tasks, draft content, summarize info and support business development
Conduct research and preliminary investigations (public records, timelines, document review, fact summaries)
Build and refine operational processes, templates and frameworks
Maintain databases, pipelines and internal dashboards
Assist with project management across client and internal projects
Support business growth by helping with proposals, marketing operations and platform development
Handle special projects that require curiosity, precision and discretion
Serve as a trusted thought partner to the founder
What You Bring
A spirit of curiosity and excitement about the work
Strong analytical thinking and excellent attention to detail
Comfort using AI tools (or eagerness to learn fast) to enhance workflow and productivity
High integrity, strong judgment, and comfort handling sensitive or confidential information
Ability to organize complex information and create structure where needed
Clear written communication and strong note-taking skills
Ability to move quickly, switch between different types of tasks, and stay steady in a fast-paced environment
A builder’s mindset — you like improving systems, not just running them
Curiosity about operations, strategy, investigations, law, or organizational safety (experience in any is a plus, not required)
Why This Role Matters
You’ll help shape the next phase of the business — building systems, improving performance, increasing capacity and amplifying the founder’s impact. This is a chance to grow with the organization, develop a wide skill set, and have a meaningful hand in the company’s future.
