We are seeking a resourceful and highly self-directed Executive Personal Assistant to support our CEO. This full-time remote role is ideal for someone who thrives on quietly keeping things in motion behind the scenes so the CEO can focus on leading the company.

This is an opportunity to be quietly indispensable—steady, responsive, and always a step ahead—ensuring the Founder's personal world runs as smoothly as their professional one.

At Just Right Reader, you'll join a passionate, growing team committed to educational equity, literacy innovation, and joyful learning.
