Office Lead & EA to CEO -US
Job Description
New York Office Operations
You'll own how our NYC hub runs day to day: the feel of the place, the energy when people walk in, and all the behind-the-scenes work that lets a high-performing team focus on doing their best work.
You will:
Set the tone the moment people walk in as you're the first person the team and guests see
Own the day-to-day running and standards of the New York office and take real pride in making it genuinely great
Manage vendor relationships, facilities coordination, and office supplies
Make sure the fridge is stocked, lunches are sorted, and the office feels like somewhere people actually want to be
Ensure the office technology works seamlessly and space is easy to navigate: AV connects, meeting rooms are set up right, and desk booking reflects real usage so friction never has a chance to surface
Support onboarding and offboarding processes, including granting and revoking access to core systems
Executive & Operational Support
The CEO moves fast. Your job is to make sure he's always organised, prepared, and one step ahead, and to free up the Chief of Staff to focus on the bigger picture.
You will:
Own the CEO's calendar, travel, and logistics, keeping him organised, prepared, and moving efficiently
Parachute into priority problems and help keep things moving when it matters
LA Office & Distributed Team Support
Our Los Angeles office will be smaller but still needs an operational owner, and as we hire remote roles across the US, we need to make sure everyone feels genuinely part of the Orbital team wherever they're based.
You will:
Act as the operational point of contact for the LA office, ensuring the environment meets Orbital's standards and the team has what they need
Own equipment provisioning and onboarding logistics for remote US joiners, ensuring every touchpoint is smooth and consistent from day one
Support tooling and access management for the distributed team
Events & Team Rituals
At Orbital, getting people in a room together is never an accident. You'll design and deliver US team events and moments that people actually look forward to: the kind that strengthen how the team works, not just how it socialises.
You will:
Plan and execute team socials, All Hands, and company off-sites for the US team
Manage vendors and budgets with confidence
Create lightweight feedback loops to continuously improve the events programme
Ensure in-person moments support business outcomes as well as social connection
Why This Might Not Be For You
You prefer purely strategic work. This role involves ordering supplies, sorting logistics, and handling day-to-day operational details
You need detailed briefs to get started. We need someone who figures out what needs doing and does it
Large, established companies are more your speed. We're a Series B scaleup. Things change, processes are still being built, and comfort with ambiguity is essential
Why Join Orbital
Real ownership from day one: this isn't a support role, it's a builder role
Operate at the intersection of law, AI, and high-growth SaaS
Genuine momentum: $60m Series B, doubling headcount, expanding across two continents
Be part of building something from the ground up. The US operation is yours to shape
Join a smart, collaborative, and ambitious team that values impact over hierarchy
The salary range for this position is $100,000 - $113,000
Security is everyone’s responsibility at Orbital. We ask all team members to follow our security policies, complete regular awareness training, and handle sensitive data with care in line with ISO 27001 standards. Spot something unusual? Reporting risks or incidents quickly helps us maintain the strong culture of security and compliance we all depend on.
At Orbital, we’re committed to building a diverse and inclusive team. We especially welcome applications from people who are traditionally underrepresented in tech. Even if you don’t meet every single requirement, or if the right role isn’t listed yet, we’d still love to hear from you.
This hiring range is a reasonable estimate of the base pay range for this position at the time of posting. Pay is based on several factors, which may include job-related knowledge, skills, experience, and business requirements.
Compensation Range: $100K - $113K
