Gran Blanco is looking for a highly capable, driven, and adaptable Executive Assistant to work directly alongside ownership and support day-to-day operations across events, hospitality, marketing, and business initiatives.

This is not a traditional assistant role. We’re looking for someone who can think independently, communicate clearly, solve problems confidently, and step into whatever is needed without waiting to be told every detail. The ideal candidate is resourceful, proactive, organized, and thrives in fast-paced hospitality environments.

You should be someone who enjoys learning on your own, figuring things out, and taking ownership of projects from start to finish. We value people who are self-starters, hardworking, detail-oriented, and excited to grow with the brand.

• Coordinate and manage private events, large party bookings, and venue activations
• Communicate with clients professionally via email, phone, and in person
• Assist with event planning, logistics, vendor coordination, and onsite execution
• Help create marketing materials, newsletters, flyers, and social media content
• Coordinate DJ bookings, partnerships, and programming initiatives
• Support operational tasks across the venue as needed
• Assist with administrative work, scheduling, research, and problem-solving
• Help improve systems, workflows, and overall guest experience
• Be comfortable jumping into new tasks and learning quickly

Ideal Candidate

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• Strong critical thinking and problem-solving abilities
• Confident making decisions and finding solutions independently
• Naturally proactive and highly organized
• Comfortable wearing multiple hats in a startup-style environment
• Interested in hospitality, events, nightlife, food & beverage, or marketing
• Creative, adaptable, and resourceful
• Strong work ethic and positive attitude
• Someone who enjoys being busy and taking initiative
• Experience with Canva, social media, event coordination, or hospitality is a plus
• Experience with Tripleseat, Resy, Adobe Creative Suite, or restaurant/event operations is a bonus

What We’re Looking For

This role is best for someone who:

• Likes being challenged
• Learns quickly without needing constant direction
• Can articulate ideas clearly and professionally
• Takes pride in being dependable and capable
• Wants hands-on experience across hospitality, events, operations, and marketing
• Is excited to help grow a Venice hospitality brand

If you’re someone who likes figuring things out, enjoys fast-paced environments, and wants to be deeply involved in building experiences and growing a brand, we’d love to hear from you.
