About Stand

Stand is a new technology and insurance company revolutionizing how society assesses, mitigates, and adapts to climate risks. Our leadership team has extensive experience in insurance, technology, and climate science: building billions in market value at prior ventures. At Stand, we are rethinking how insurance enables proactive, science-driven resilience.

Existing insurance models often rely on broad exclusions, leaving homeowners without options. At Stand, we leverage advanced deterministic models and cutting-edge analytics to provide personalized risk assessments—helping homeowners secure coverage and take proactive steps toward resilience.

Role Summary: We’re looking for a highly organized, proactive Executive Assistant to support our CEO and keep our San Francisco HQ humming.

• Oversee day-to-day office operations for our SF headquarters (supplies, mail, deliveries, maintenance).

• Welcome and assist visitors.

• Manage vendor relationships (IT, cleaning, catering, etc.).

• Coordinate weekly team lunches, in-office events, and occasional offsites.

• Support onboarding logistics for new hires (workspace setup, welcome kits, systems access).

• Maintain a clean, organized, and welcoming office environment.

• Track and manage small office budget for supplies and events.

Qualifications:

• 6+ years of experience as an Executive Assistant, supporting C-level executives in a startup or high-growth environment.

• Strong organizational and time-management skills, with exceptional attention to detail.

• Proactive problem-solver who anticipates needs and stays three steps ahead.

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.

• Experience handling confidential and sensitive information with integrity.

• Comfortable wearing multiple hats in a small, collaborative team.
  

Bonus points for:

• Previous experience managing an office or facilities for a small team.

• Event planning or vendor management experience.

Compensation:

The annual base salary range for full-time employees in this position is $115,000 to $135,000 + meaningful Equity Grant.
