Job description

Be the CEO’s strategic right hand - drive focus, follow-through, and alignment.

At BJAK, we’re building Southeast Asia’s leading digital financial platform - helping millions access simpler, smarter insurance and financial services. As Executive Assistant to the CEO, you’ll work at the center of leadership, strategy, and execution.

This is a high-trust, high-impact role. You’ll operate as a force multiplier - protecting the CEO’s time, ensuring priorities are executed, and acting as a communication and coordination bridge across the company and beyond.

This is not a personal assistant role - your focus will be on driving operational clarity, executive readiness, and strategic momentum.

Why this role matters

Help the CEO stay laser-focused by managing calendars, context, and communication.

Ensure decisions turn into actions and ideas become outcomes.

Be a trusted partner in a fast-paced, high-growth environment where speed and structure matter.

Shape internal alignment, cross-functional follow-through, and stakeholder visibility.

What will you do

Own and manage the CEO’s business calendar, meetings, and travel, ruthlessly prioritizing what matters.

Track and follow up on strategic actions, cross-functional deliverables, and business goals

Prepare briefs, decks, memos, and comms - both internal and external

Join meetings to document, clarify, and drive accountability on next steps

Serve as liaison between the CEO and leadership, investors, and external stakeholders

Coordinate and support planning cycles, townhalls, board meetings, and major leadership forums

Pre-read documents, surface issues, and flag gaps ahead of meetings

Solve problems and unblock issues proactively to keep operations moving

Maintain full confidentiality and professionalism at all times

You’ll thrive in this role if you...

Are fast, sharp, and structured - you bring clarity to chaos

Communicate with polish - in writing, slides, and speech

Anticipate needs before they’re spoken and follow through without reminders

Are deeply organized and don’t drop the ball, ever

Move fast, think ahead, and keep people accountable

Handle sensitive information and stakeholder relationships with maturity and discretion

Want to be at the center of execution, not just observing from the sidelines

What you bring

3+ years of work experience, including 2+ years supporting a C-level executive or founder

Experience in high-growth, fast-moving environments (tech / startup preferred)

Strong writing, coordination, and stakeholder management skills

Proficiency with Google Workspace, Notion, Excel, and digital productivity tools

Excellent judgment, attention to detail, and business maturity

Fully based in Malaysia and available to work on-site in Petaling Jaya HQ

Comfortable supporting occasional urgent matters outside of standard hours

Our Team & Culture

We’re a lean, high-performance team that moves fast and holds a high bar. Titles don’t matter here - output, integrity, and ownership do. Everyone is expected to roll up their sleeves, contribute meaningfully, and take initiative.

We reward people who think like owners. We value speed, clarity, and relentless ownership. If you’re hungry to grow and care deeply about excellence, this is your kind of environment.

Why Join Us?

Above-market compensation for top-tier performance

A high-exposure role at the center of company leadership

Opportunity to grow into broader strategy, operations, or chief-of-staff paths

A fast-moving, no-nonsense team that values clarity, ownership, and speed

Real impact in shaping how the CEO leads and how the company executes
