Executive Assistant to the Cofounder/CEO

About us

Nourish is on a mission to improve people’s health by making it easy to eat well. Nutrition-related chronic disease is the largest and most overlooked crisis in the world. Food can be medicine: working with a Registered Dietitian is one of the most effective interventions available, but <1% of eligible Americans use their covered benefits.

Nourish is building an AI-native, patient-friendly healthcare system centered on nutrition that improves outcomes, lowers costs, and helps people live healthier, longer lives. We launched three years ago, are live in all 50 states, and already have thousands of dietitians and hundreds of thousands of patients on the platform.

We are growing quickly, have partnered with national health insurance companies and provider groups, and have raised $115M from top-tier VCs including JP Morgan Growth Equity, Thrive Capital, Index Ventures, Y Combinator, Maverick Ventures, Box Group, Atomico, G Squared, and Pinegrove Venture Partners. Our angel investors include world-class healthcare founders from Oscar, Rightway Health, Headway, Spring Health, and Alto Pharmacy, as well as soccer star Alex Morgan and the founders from Olipop and Notion.

About the role

We are seeking a highly organized and proactive Executive Assistant to support our Co-founder/CEO. This role is critical to enabling our CEO to operate at maximum effectiveness by managing calendars, coordinating communications, handling logistics, and serving as a trusted partner on day-to-day priorities.

This person will work closely with cross-functional leaders across the entire company. The ideal candidate thrives in a fast-paced, high-growth environment, has exceptional attention to detail, and brings a solutions-oriented mindset to every challenge.

• Drive operational efficiency by implementing systems and processes for task management, information flow, and organizational alignment.

• Handle sensitive and confidential information with the highest degree of professionalism and discretion.

• Support preparation for board meetings, investor discussions, and high-stakes external engagements.

• Anticipate needs and proactively identify opportunities to create leverage for the leadership team.

We’d love to hear from you if:

• You have 5+ years of experience as an Executive Assistant, ideally supporting C-suite leaders in fast-paced or high-growth companies.

• You are a master of time management and calendar prioritization, with the ability to juggle competing demands seamlessly.
