Job Description

Executive Assistant to the CEO


The Opportunity
Wilshire Law Firm is a high-growth, nationally recognized plaintiffs' firm built on performance, discipline, and execution. Our Founder and CEO is a relentless operator who moves fast and expects the same from his closest collaborators. We’re seeking an elite-level Executive Assistant who can keep pace, think ahead, and provide airtight support that enables focus, velocity, and results.


This isn’t a passive, calendar-wrangling role. You’ll be the CEO’s right hand — embedded in the heart of the business — proactively managing priorities, solving problems, and eliminating friction. You must thrive under pressure, protect the CEO’s time like a hawk, and operate with absolute precision and discretion.

What You’ll Own
Founder Support & Executive Operations

  • Manage the CEO’s time with strategic calendar control, travel logistics, and meeting prep
  • Filter and route high-volume communications with judgment and clarity
  • Draft, edit, and manage high-stakes correspondence and internal documents
  • Join critical meetings to take notes, follow up, and ensure accountability


Information Flow & Prioritization

  • Anticipate needs before they arise — calendar conflicts, deliverable deadlines, missed handoffs
  • Create systems to track key priorities, meeting outputs, and action items
  • Act as the CEO’s air traffic control — protecting focus while keeping the business moving


Execution & Administrative Excellence

  • Own complex travel, hospitality, and personal logistics with concierge-level precision
  • Maintain confidentiality at all times — no exceptions
  • Operate with speed, accuracy, and a mindset of service and problem-solving


Who You Are

  • A seasoned EA with 5+ years supporting a demanding CEO or founder
  • A master of logistics, prioritization, and time management
  • Emotionally intelligent, tactful, and unflappable under pressure
  • A clear, concise communicator — both written and verbal
  • Tech-savvy and proficient in Microsoft 365 and modern productivity tools
  • Able to type 40+ WPM with strong documentation skills
  • Comfortable working some evenings or weekends when needed
  • Bachelor’s degree required; advanced education or business exposure is a plus
  • Willingness to travel up to 25% of the time


Compensation

  • $160,000 - $225,000, depending on experience


Benefits

  • Paid time off and holidays
  • High-growth environment with room to level up
  • Team events and off-sites
  • Firm-paid medical (HMO), with optional upgrades
  • Firm-paid life and AD&D insurance
  • Low-cost dental and vision coverage
  • 401(k), FSA, EAP, and pet insurance
  • Employee referral bonuses
