About Sainteur
Sainteur is a small markets-news startup. We publish news on stocks, crypto, startups, the economy and the politics that moves markets, and we started in 2026. The company is young, so the work behind it changes from week to week: new tools, new accounts, new people to meet.
About the Role
You will work directly with the founder and keep the business side of Sainteur running: the inbox, the calendar, the accounts and vendors a young company collects, travel when it comes up, and the research and paperwork that would otherwise pile up. It is a role of trust: you will read the founder’s email, manage the calendar and handle accounts on the company’s behalf.
Responsibilities
- Keep the founder’s inbox under control: sort it, flag what needs a decision, draft replies and follow up so nothing slips.
- Run the calendar: schedule and move meetings and calls, send the invites, and prepare a short note before the important ones.
- Handle vendor and account admin: subscriptions, software accounts, invoices and receipts, renewals and cancellations.
- Book and organize travel when it’s needed, with the plans kept in one place.
- Do light research: compare tools and vendors, look into people and companies before a meeting, and sum up what you find.
- Draft, format and file documents: memos, meeting notes, checklists, and forms and simple agreements for the founder to review.
- Keep shared files and to-do lists tidy, so anyone can find what they need.
Required Qualifications
- Experience as an executive, personal or administrative assistant, or in another organized, detail-heavy role.
- Clear, careful written English: an email you send for someone should read as if they wrote it.
- At ease with Gmail, Google Calendar, Docs and Sheets, and quick to learn new tools.
- Discretion with confidential information and with access to accounts.
- Able to work on your own, keep track of many small things, and say plainly what’s done and what’s waiting.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience at a startup or with a founder, where priorities change quickly.
- An interest in markets, finance or the news.
- Bookkeeping basics: invoices, receipts and expense tracking.
