Work from Home as an Executive Assistant

Exponential Talent LLC is a small, high growth, mission-driven boutique consulting firm that specializes in gender and diversity strategy, organization development, and talent management.

We are dedicated to our mission of helping organizations everywhere become more inclusive workplaces where everyone can do extraordinary work. In our own workplace, we want to "walk the talk" of inclusion and we have rethought the rules of work. Exponential Talent is a fun, flexible, and high growth environment, and the most popular ground rule on our team is "no guilt." We work virtually whenever possible (and that's most of the time!) and we collaborate continuously to deliver exceptional results for our clients while also fitting our work with our lives. Note that occasional travel to our clients or to in-person team meetings is required and in person meeting locations span the greater Bay Area with Alameda, CA being the most frequent location.

Because of our unusual work model, we are able to make this administrative role full or part time and we can work with a variety of career interests and goals. We are looking for a minimum of 20 hours a week, with some hours, if possible, each of the five days of the week. Whether you are a retiree, working Mom, part-time student or have some other life needs that requires flexibility, we might just be a great fit for you. Also note that if you do not have experience in some areas, but you do have a drive to learn, we can work together on a training strategy. If your long-term career interest is in consulting, we can work towards that goal with you. If, on the other hand, you have work-life needs and would like to focus on primarily administrative work, we can also create that as a job focus.
