Executive Assistant - Strategy - CEO's Office - IIM/XLRI/SPJIMR/MDI/FMS/IIFT/IMT

Role Overview:

This role is the CEO's right hand. You will run the CEO's office, drive strategic projects end to end, and make sure decisions turn into action across operations, sales, finance and the leadership team. It suits someone who wants to learn how a company scales, at close range, and grow into a business or strategy leadership role.

What you will do:

Run the CEO's office:

- Own the CEO's calendar, priorities and time; protect focus time for the few things that matter most.

- Prepare briefs, pre-reads and talking points before meetings with clients, investors, bankers and partners.

- Run the leadership operating rhythm: weekly reviews, monthly business reviews and quarterly planning. Take minutes, track action items and follow up until they close.

- Handle confidential information with complete discretion.

Drive strategy and special projects:

- Turn the 3-year growth plan into quarterly goals and track progress against them.

- Lead projects such as new city or vertical launches, enterprise client pitches, pricing reviews and partnership evaluations.

- Do market and competitor research on logistics, 3PL, quick commerce and e-commerce fulfilment players.

- Build business cases, financial models and board-ready presentations.

Keep a pulse on the business:

- Build and maintain a CEO dashboard: orders, on-time delivery, cost per shipment, fleet and hub utilisation, revenue, margins and cash.

- Spot gaps early and flag them with data, not opinions.

- Work with operations, sales, finance, HR and tech heads to unblock cross-functional issues.

Support capital markets readiness:

- Coordinate with finance, auditors, legal advisors and bankers on fundraising, governance and listing preparation.

- Help prepare investor presentations, data rooms and board materials.

- Draft internal and external communications for the CEO.
