Looking for a highly organized, discreet, and ridiculously resourceful Personal Assistant to the CEO to keep our CEO alive, on time, and in the correct city. This is not a traditional Executive Assistant position. This is crisis management with a calendar. This is a remote position, but the role will be heavily focused on making the CEO’s day-to-day personal life run smoothly, with professional and administrative support as needed. About Your Boss, Our CEO runs a fast-growing company and believes she can accomplish approximately 37 hours of work in a 12-hour day. She is occasionally correct .She has excellent ideas. Lots of them. Usually all before breakfast. Your job is to determine which ones need to happen today, which ones can happen next week, and which ones need to be gently talked off the ledge. About the Job. One minute you'll be booking first-class flights to a conference. The next you'll be on the phone convincing a plumber, a landscaper, and an internet company that today really is the only day that works — while also locating her favorite black blazer that somehow disappeared. You are the person who figures it out, handles it, and follows through.
What You'll Do
- Manage personal and professional calendars
- Book flights, hotels, transportation, and complete travel itineraries
- Handle last-minute travel changes, cancellations, and rebookings
- Schedule personal appointments and make reservations
- Order household items, groceries, supplies, gifts, and other personal purchases
- Track deliveries and handle returns, exchanges, and refunds — because buying three versions "just to compare" is a personality trait
- Coordinate household services, vendors, maintenance, and errands
- Research products, services, restaurants, travel, and whatever else needs to be figured out
- Make calls and resolve issues on the CEO's behalf
- Handle highly confidential personal and professional information
- Assist with Microsoft Office, data entry, scheduling, and administrative projects
- Handle the random tasks that somehow needed to be completed yesterday
The Ideal Candidate
- Owns what can only be described as a Mary Poppins bag
- Has an almost unsettling ability to remember where literally everything is
- Solves problems no one else has noticed yet
- Can get an answer from someone who already told three other people "no"
- Stays suspiciously calm when the entire day's schedule implodes before 9 a.m.
- Carries snacks, Advil, chargers, and scissors... just in case
- Can track down a person, package, reservation, or missing blazer in under 20 minutes
- Secretly enjoys solving other people's self-inflicted problems
- Can make three phone calls, send two emails, and order groceries while sitting on hold with Comcast
- Has ever managed six waitresses at a truck stop diner during the Sunday breakfast rush. Honestly, the skill set transfers.
Experience as a Personal Assistant, Household Manager, Executive Assistant, Hospitality Manager, Restaurant Manager, or in another high-demand role where you were responsible for keeping everything moving is a plus. More important than the perfect title is your ability to take ownership and figure things out. This is a remote position, but it is not a traditional 9–5 role. Flexibility for evenings and weekends is required. The right person understands that sometimes the plan changes. And when it does? Fine. New plan.
Pay: $65,000.00 - $75,000.00 per year
Benefits:
- Flexible schedule
- Retirement plan
Work Location: Remote

Tips for Your Remote Chief Executive Officer Job Search
Apply early to remote roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists remote chief executive officer openings from across the U.S. in one place. Search roles by function and apply directly to the ones that match your leadership background before competitive windows close.
Prove async leadership in your materials
Remote boards evaluate how a chief executive officer will run distributed teams without in-person oversight. Your resume and cover letter should name specific tools you have used for async communication, how you have structured remote reporting cadences, and the outcomes those practices produced.
Prepare for distributed-team interview formats
Remote chief executive officer interviews frequently involve multiple asynchronous rounds, video calls with board members in different time zones, and written case responses. Practice presenting your operating philosophy in writing as clearly as you would in person, since remote boards weight written clarity heavily at this level.
Build visibility in remote-first leadership networks
Remote chief executive officer searches often run through distributed founder and board communities before they appear publicly. Engaging in remote-first leadership forums, contributing to async discussions on organizational strategy, and connecting with distributed-company advisors puts your name in circulation before a role is posted.
Remote Chief Executive Officer Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a remote chief executive officer job?
Remote chief executive officer roles go to candidates who can demonstrate they lead effectively without physical proximity. Remote-first boards and distributed organizations screen for strong written communication, comfort with asynchronous decision-making, and a history of building accountability into distributed teams. Candidates who can point to specific outcomes from remote or hybrid leadership situations, and who articulate a clear operating cadence for distributed teams, stand out most.
Which companies hire remote chief executive officers?
Employers currently hiring remote chief executive officers include FutureSight, Mitalmor, and CEO Life, per current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Remote chief executive officer roles are most common at remote-first technology companies, distributed SaaS businesses, and nonprofits with nationally dispersed teams and boards.
Can you get a remote chief executive officer job with no experience?
Yes, but remote chief executive officer roles with no prior executive experience are rare and demand early self-direction that many candidates underestimate. Entry paths include leading a remote startup, running a distributed nonprofit, or stepping into a fractional chief executive officer role for an early-stage company. Demonstrating measurable outcomes from any distributed leadership role, even at a small scale, opens doors when formal credentials are thin.
Do you need a degree for remote chief executive officer jobs?
Not always. Remote employers hiring chief executive officers weigh demonstrated leadership results, board relationships, and the ability to drive strategy across distributed teams far more heavily than academic credentials. A record of scaling revenue, managing remote organizations, or turning around distributed operations routinely outweighs a missing or unrelated degree for this role.
Which industries hire the most remote chief executive officers?
The sectors hiring the most remote chief executive officers are Insurance and Technology & Software, based on current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. These sectors rely heavily on distributed teams and outcomes-based leadership, which makes fully remote chief executive officer arrangements a natural fit for their operating models.
