About This Role

This is a critical role supporting the Head of Economic & Community Development. You will function as a strategic advisor, operator, and project leader — ensuring the executive’s priorities are executed effectively and the broader organization stays aligned.

You will be deeply embedded with leadership, serving as a proxy for the executive when needed, and helping drive initiatives that span multiple teams, regions, and business functions. Your work will touch everything from strategic goal-setting and project delivery to communications, meeting operations, and daily decision support.

This role requires someone who can think big, operate independently, and manage the details that keep a large, complex organization running smoothly.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Acting as a strategic advisor to the Head of ECD, helping prioritize time, information, and organizational focus.
• Developing a strong understanding of the ECD mission, projects, and the broader Google business to inform decision-making and operate as a reliable proxy when needed.
• Leading and managing cross-functional projects from kick-off to completion, ensuring alignment with organizational goals and timely delivery.
• Facilitating communication and collaboration across key internal partners (Finance, GDC, Legal), Google leadership, and external stakeholders.
• Serving as the gatekeeper for the executive’s priorities — managing approvals, administrative requests, budgets, travel, and time-sensitive decisions with daily check-ins.
• Planning, structuring, and facilitating organizational meetings — including staff meetings, offsites, and business reviews — with clear agendas, productive discussions, and actionable outcomes.
• Tracking deadlines, key actions, and follow-ups across all stakeholder groups to maintain momentum and operational excellence.
• Creating quick-turn decks, slides, and visual materials for executive and leadership-level reviews using existing data, dashboards, and team resources.
• Drafting executive communications, including emails, meeting recaps, handoffs to the ECD leadership team, presentations, and reports.
• Streamlining internal processes, improving workflows, and ensuring organizational clarity and accountability.
