Description

The Executive Administrator provides high-level administrative, project, and communications support to Truvant’s four-member executive leadership team. This is a senior role designed for an experienced professional who operates with independent judgment, executive presence, and complete discretion.


Beyond calendar, travel, and event ownership, the role is a force multiplier for the executive team: building and coordinating major presentations (including Board and investor materials) and stepping into significant business initiatives such as acquisitions, post-close integrations, greenfield expansion, and new facility openings. The successful candidate anticipates needs, removes friction, drives deadlines across senior stakeholders,

Requirements

Executive Support — Four Executives

• Manage expense reporting, invoice coding and approval routing, and vendor coordination for the executive team.

• Maintain confidential files and records, including personnel, legal, transaction, and Board materials.

Change Management & Organizational Communication

• Partner with executives and HR to plan and coordinate communication around executive strategies, growth and changes within the business.

• Draft and prepare change communications and supporting materials such as leadership talking points, FAQs, town hall content, employee announcements, and rollout timelines.

• Coordinate the cascade of messaging so leaders, managers, and employees hear the right information in the right order across sites and shifts.

• Track questions, feedback, and themes surfacing from the organization during periods of change and summarize them for executives to inform follow-up communication.
