Job Description

Jar is India s premier financial fitness platform, guiding millions toward smarter savings with effortless ease. As EA to the founders, you would serve as the single point of coordination that makes everything work across time zones, contexts and competing priorities.
This is a high-trust, high-context role, and the right person becomes invaluable within months.
What will be your responsibilities?
Calendar Management
Time is the scarcest resource here, and you would own how it gets spent. This means:
  • Building schedules that match energy to importance (hard meetings when fresh, admin when tired); proactively scheduling meetings and anticipating needs
  • Protecting focus time while ensuring critical relationships dont go stale
  • Creating "hit lists" before every trip who must I see in Dubai? London? Bangalore? Mumbai? New York?
  • Managing across multiple time zones
  • Preparing daily briefs highlighting priorities
Communication Management
You are the first to draft most external communications and the router for inbound ones. This means:
  • Knowing when to send a polite decline vs. a "lets revisit in 3 months" vs. a warm intro.
  • Drafting and manage correspondence end-to-end.
  • Tracking action items from meetings and ensure timely completion.
  • Maintaining organised systems for deadlines and deliverables.
Travel Coordination
  • Arranging domestic and international travel, including flights, visas, accommodations, and ground transportation.
  • Building detailed itineraries and handling last-minute changes.
Team Coordination
You dont have direct reports, but you work through others constantly:
  • Routing requests to the right team member, following up with relevant parties to keep projects moving forward and ensuring resolution.
  • Flagging and addressing potential issues or bottlenecks pre-emptively.
  • Serving as a bridge between my expectations and execution of direct reports (as you have the highest visibility on my priorities).
Project Driver
Some examples
  • Anniversary/birthdays/weddings: Making sure that critical people in team and our network - important dates are marked somewhere and we are able to wish them on time/send gifts.
  • Sprints: Scheduling 29+ meetings in a new city within a 3-day window.
  • Leadership offsite: Venue, guest list, budget, logistics all coordinated.

  • Personal projects: Family logistics, housing transitions, daily meals, etc.
What s required from you?
Top Traits
  • Ability to build systems: A lot of this job involves taking incoming chaos, triaging it against actual priorities, structuring it so it can be tackled, and following through until its done so you need to be someone who naturally creates order and builds systems rather than someone who thrives in perpetual improvisation.
  • Very strong with communications: Strong communication skills matter enormously, and concise is better than comprehensive. If you can say something clearly in three sentences instead of six, thats what we want brevity that still delivers the message without losing warmth or clarity.
  • Great judgment under ambiguity: "Schedule something with Aryan next week" is enough. You know Aryan is P1, prefers evening, and is based in NYC/Palo Alto every other week.
  • Written precision: Your emails are clear, warm and half the length most people would write.
  • Relentless follow-through: If you say youll do something, it happens, and you dont need reminders to make sure of it.
Must Have
  • Youre someone whos obsessed with getting things done without needing follow-up, and you understand the difference between 98% and 100% that last two percent matters here.
  • Youve big ambitions in life and youre interested in this role as a stepping stone to get a sense of how a fast-growing startup operates. We will be delighted to hear and support you when youve decided to found a startup of your own, or pursue a more challenging role.
Nice to Have
  • Event planning or project management background.
  • Calm in chaos: Housing falls through with 24 hours notice? Flight cancels? You solve it, then report it.
