Help lead one of New York Life's most visible transformation initiatives.

NYL360 is reimagining how New York Life works - building a unified, AI-powered experience for every prospect, client, agent, advisor, and employee who touches the company. It's ambitious, fast-moving, and highly visible at the executive level. We're looking for a sharp, resourceful Executive Assistant to be the operational backbone behind our SVP and Senior Leadership Team - someone who thrives on keeping high-stakes work running smoothly and isn't afraid to jump in wherever needed.

Why This Role Matters

This isn't a back-office support role - it's a front-row seat to how a major digital transformation actually gets executed. You'll work directly with senior leadership, shape how the department communicates and engages, and be trusted with the details that keep a fast-paced team functioning at its best.

• Support scheduling needs across the Senior Leadership Team
• Coordinate meetings end-to-end - rooms, video conferences, catering, materials, and logistics
• Book travel and manage expense reconciliation for the SVP and department

Events & Engagement

• Plan and execute department-wide meetings, town halls, and events - from logistics to leadership materials
• Build employee engagement initiatives that bring energy and connection to the team
• Track attendance and help keep the department's rhythm on track

Operations & Administration

• Serve as department P-Card owner - managing orders, expenses, and tracking with precision
• Keep shared spaces - conference rooms, common areas, pantry - organized, stocked, and running well
• Be the go-to for resolving office and building issues quickly
• Maintain department distribution lists and take on ad hoc projects as they arise

What You Bring

• Relevant administrative / operational experience; Bachelor's degree preferred
• Sharp organizational instincts and follow-through - you don't let things slip
• A proactive, resourceful mindset - you spot what needs doing before you're asked
• Creativity for building engagement activities people actually enjoy
• Comfort juggling multiple priorities in a fast-moving environment
• Strong written and verbal communication
• Discretion and sound judgment with confidential information
• Fluency with AI tools (Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini) and Microsoft 365, Zoom and Teams
