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,
Executive Support — Four Executives
