An assistant who needs to be told twice is not saving you time.

Most founders who hire an executive assistant end up managing one. You explain the calendar rules, the VIP list and how you like travel booked, then you explain it all again next week. The hours you meant to buy back go into supervision. Meanwhile the inbox still sits at 300 unread, board prep still lands on Sunday night, and follow-ups from last week's meetings never go out.

RevHires fixes the handoff before it starts. Your executive assistant is trained on your preferences, email tone and approval rules through SOP Voice Cloning before day one. A pod lead checks their work daily, reviews it weekly, and replaces them at no extra staffing charge if the fit is wrong. You delegate once and it sticks.

The role

What does an Executive Assistant (EA) do?

An executive assistant, often called an EA or executive administrative assistant, runs the logistics of a leader's working life so that leader can focus on the decisions only they can make. Where a general administrative assistant supports a whole team, an EA supports one or two executives directly: managing their calendar and inbox, preparing them for meetings, coordinating travel, tracking commitments and acting as gatekeeper. The best EAs anticipate. They spot the conflict, draft the reply and flag the risk before you ask.

Calendar ownership

Owns your calendar end to end: scheduling across time zones, defending focus blocks, resolving double bookings and confirming every external meeting 24 hours ahead. Works from your written priority rules, so investor and client time wins over internal syncs and nobody books you back to back without a buffer.

Inbox triage and drafting

Sorts your inbox into act, delegate, read and archive twice a day, drafts replies in your voice for approval, and sends routine responses on their own under rules you set. You open a short, prioritized summary instead of hundreds of unread threads every morning.

Meeting prep and follow-up

Builds a one-page brief before key meetings with attendee background, last touchpoints and open items. Takes notes or pulls them from your recorder, then sends recap emails and logs action items with owners and due dates, so commitments made on calls actually close.

Travel and logistics

Books flights, hotels, ground transport and restaurant reservations against your stated preferences and budget, builds a single itinerary document, and monitors for delays and changes. Handles rebooking during your business hours so you are not stuck on hold at an airport gate.

Project and task tracking

Keeps your personal task list and cross-team projects current in Asana, ClickUp or Notion. Chases owners for status before deadlines, flags slippage early, and sends you a short Friday report on what moved, what stalled and what needs your decision next week.

Expense and invoice admin

Collects receipts, codes expenses in Expensify or Ramp, reconciles card statements and routes vendor invoices for approval. Keeps subscriptions and renewals on a tracker, so you are not surprised by an annual charge you meant to cancel three months ago.

Stakeholder communication

Acts as your first point of contact for clients, partners, board members and your own team. Handles scheduling threads, sends reminders and follows up on overdue items in a professional tone that reflects well on you, escalating only what genuinely needs your attention.

Documents and reporting

Formats board decks, polishes internal memos, maintains shared drives and builds the recurring reports you review each week from your CRM or finance tools. Keeps templates and naming conventions consistent, so anyone on your team can find the latest version fast.

How we screen for this role

Executive assistant candidates start with a timed inbox exercise: 40 mixed emails to triage, prioritize and draft replies for, scored on judgment and tone. They then untangle a calendar with conflicting meetings across three time zones, book a sample multi-city trip against stated preferences, and handle a live role play with a pushy caller who wants time with the executive. We also check written English, discretion and references from prior executive support roles.

How fast can I hire an executive assistant?

Most executive assistants go live in 7 days. Day 1 is discovery, where we capture how you work. Days 2 to 3 are SOP Voice Cloning on your email tone, calendar rules and approval limits. Days 4 to 5 are role scenario training, Day 6 is QA calibration with you, and on Day 7 they start running your calendar and inbox.

Will a remote executive assistant communicate well with US clients and partners?

Yes. We recruit from the top 1% of enterprise talent in Latin America, South Africa and Egypt: college-educated, near-native English, many with backgrounds at companies like Microsoft, Amazon, Vodafone and Oracle. Before going live, your EA is trained on your tone and on US business email and phone etiquette. Your contacts deal with a polished professional who represents you well, not someone reading from a script.

What hours will my executive assistant work?

Your executive assistant works your US business hours, whether you are on Eastern, Central, Mountain or Pacific time. We also support companies in Canada, the UK and Australia on their local hours. You can set a schedule that overlaps your mornings for inbox triage and covers end of day for follow-ups, so nothing waits overnight for a reply.

Who manages the executive assistant day to day?

You direct the work, and RevHires handles the entire management layer. A pod lead reviews your EA's output against a daily QA scorecard, runs weekly performance reviews and coaches on anything that slipped. You get a capable assistant plus an accountable manager, without building training materials, scorecards or performance processes yourself.

Is it safe to give an offshore executive assistant access to my inbox and accounts?

Every engagement includes a signed NDA and our data handling protocols. We recommend delegated access and a password manager such as 1Password, so your EA never needs your personal credentials and you can revoke access instantly. For healthcare clients, we sign BAAs and our team is trained on HIPAA-aligned data handling.

What happens if my executive assistant is not the right fit?

Tell your pod lead. We diagnose whether it is a training gap or a fit issue, and if it is fit, we replace the assistant at no extra staffing charge. The replacement goes through the same SOP Voice Cloning on your preferences, so you do not start from zero. Because plans are month to month, you are never stuck with an arrangement that is not working.
