Conveo is the AI research platform enabling fast, affordable, and high-quality consumer / B2B research. Global brands like Unilever, Google, and Orange use our AI video interviewer to generate insights across marketing and product teams.
Traditional research is slow, expensive, and superficial. Running it well requires expertise most teams don't have. That gap affects how well companies understand their customers and how well they can serve them. We're closing it.
😎 The team
Conveo is a YC-backed company in an active growth period. We started this year as a team of ~20 and are on track to reach ~120 by year end. The people who join now have an outsized chance to shape how this company is built.
⭐️ Your Role & Impact
As our first Executive Assistant & Office Manager, you’ll be a creative problem-solver and trusted partner to the leadership team. Your day-to-day focus will be partnering closely with our founders — Dieter (CEO) and Hendrik (CRO) — while supporting the broader leadership team as needed.
You’ll help optimize how the company spends its time and attention — bringing clarity, calm, and momentum to a fast-moving environment.
You’ll build strong, trust-based relationships across the company and with external stakeholders (candidates, customers, investors, partners, and vendors). You’ll act as an informed representative in day-to-day interactions, with great judgment and total discretion.
This is a role for someone who enjoys owning the details and improving the system: creating high-quality outputs, anticipating what’s needed next, and making sure the team can stay focused on building, selling, and shipping.
🔥 Your Mission
Make leadership time work for the whole company
Your primary day-to-day support is for the founders — Dieter (CEO) and Hendrik (CRO). You own the calendar mechanics, inbox triage, prep, and follow-through that keep decisions crisp and execution unblocked.
Own and protect leadership calendars: protect deep work, batch shallow work, eliminate meetings that shouldn’t happen, and make sure the meetings that do happen have an agenda, a prep doc, and a clear outcome
Triage inboxes: surface what truly needs attention, draft replies when appropriate, and make sure nothing important falls through the cracks
Track action items from leadership meetings and make sure they close
Run the office so no one notices the office
The best office management is invisible. Coffee is good, the wifi works, the new hire has a laptop on day one, and Friday lunch shows up without anyone asking.
Own the Antwerp / London office end-to-end: vendors, suppliers, snacks, equipment, etc.
Set up and equip the office, including any future moves or expansions
Be the first point of contact for visitors, candidates on-site, customers stopping by, and the team itself when something needs sorting
Make travel, offsites, and visits actually work
We run quarterly team offsites and travel constantly between London, Antwerp, and New York. You make all of that frictionless.
Plan and book founder and leadership travel: flights, hotels, ground transport, dinners, visa logistics
Own quarterly team offsites end-to-end: venue, agenda support, travel, food, activities, budget
Coordinate customer visits, investor visits, and recruiting on-site days
Build the culture and moments that keep the team connected
As we scale across offices, the small moments matter: how we onboard, how we celebrate wins, how we stay aligned, and how we make in-office time feel worth it.
Own team-building and culture moments in the Antwerp / London office: monthly team events, Friday rituals, celebrations, welcome lunches, and “make it feel like Conveo” touches
Partner with leadership to run high-quality all-hands, town halls, and internal events (venue/logistics, run-of-show, comms, and follow-ups)
Create lightweight playbooks and templates so events get easier (and better) every time
👀 What We're Looking For
Must-haves
3-5+ years supporting senior executives, ideally founders or C-suite at a high-growth startup, scale-up, or fast-paced professional services firm
Demonstrable track record of owning a calendar, inbox, and travel for someone whose time is genuinely scarce
Experience using AI tools (Claude, ChatGPT, automations) to compound your own output
Office management experience: vendor relationships, lease and supplier management, onboarding logistics, event planning
Excellent written communication in English. You can draft a founder-quality email, Slack message, or briefing doc and the recipient won't know it wasn't written by the founder
Fluent in modern productivity tooling: Google Workspace, Slack, Notion, calendar tools, expense platforms. Comfortable picking up new tools in a day.
Based in London or Antwerp.
Mindset
High agency, low ego: you see what needs to happen and you make it happen, without waiting to be asked
Anticipatory: you're already solving the problem before anyone realizes there is one
Absolutely discreet: you handle sensitive information the way a good lawyer does — quietly, carefully, and without exception
Calm under pressure: when the day falls apart at 9am you reset it by 10
Taste: you care about the small details — how the meeting room is set up, how the offsite welcome note reads, what's in the fridge on Monday
Service-minded but never servile: you treat this as a craft, not as a stepping stone, and you have the confidence to push back on the founders when you should
🏆 What Success Looks Like
After 6-12 months
The founders' calendars are clean, intentional, and protective of their highest-leverage work. They no longer touch logistics.
The Antwerp /London office is somewhere the team is excited to come to. New hires are fully set up on day one without exception.
Quarterly offsites and customer visits run end-to-end without leadership being involved in the logistics
You are one of the most trusted operational hires in the company, and the leadership team can't imagine how they ran without you
