About the Role

Title: Executive Assistant to the Founders

Location: Remote - Canada (Eastern time zone)

At Sailor Health, the founders are deeply hands-on across every function – from clinical operations and payer strategy to hiring, compliance, and product. We're looking for an Executive Assistant to work directly with our co-founders to keep the company running smoothly behind the scenes.

This is our first EA hire, and it goes beyond pure calendar management. You'll be the operational backbone of the founding team – owning scheduling and logistics, running our NYC office, supporting new hires with HR and onboarding workflows, and making sure nothing falls through the cracks as we scale.

If you're excited to be the person who makes everything work at a fast-growing digital health company, we'd love to meet you.

Who You Are

• You have impeccable attention to detail and follow-through, and you never let a ball drop.

• You respond quickly, communicate clearly, and maintain composure when priorities shift.

• You understand the weight of confidentiality.

• You're a fast learner who's genuinely excited to go deep on new domains – whether that's HR compliance protocols, expense management systems, or new operational workflows. You operate independently, figure things out, and move with urgency.

• Experience in an EA or operations role is a plus, but not required – we're open to recent graduates who are sharp, hungry, and ready to grow alongside the founders of a fast-scaling company.
