Role overview

What does an Executive Assistant do?

The best executives don't manage their own calendars—they have an EA who multiplies their output. Marco's Executive Assistants manage complex, multi-timezone schedules, handle sensitive communications, coordinate cross-functional projects, and anticipate needs before they become urgent. They're the operational backbone that lets leaders focus on high-impact decisions instead of logistics.

What does a remote executive assistant do? They manage calendars across stakeholders and time zones, draft and triage executive communications, prepare meeting agendas and follow-up action items, coordinate travel, handle confidential information with discretion, and manage special projects. A remote executive assistant through Marco costs $800–$1,200/month compared to $5,500+/month for a U.S.-based EA—delivering the same caliber of support at a fraction of the cost.

Frequently Asked Questions

An Executive Assistant provides high-level administrative support to executives — managing complex calendars, coordinating travel, preparing reports, and serving as a gatekeeper for communication. They typically work with Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Slack, Notion, and project management tools like Asana or Monday.com, and are responsible for delivering measurable results that directly impact your business goals.
In the U.S., an Executive Assistant typically costs $5,620/month. Through Marco, you can hire an Executive Assistant from Latin America for $1,600/month, the Philippines for $1,000/month, or South Africa for $1,350/month — saving up to 82% while getting the same quality of work.
An Executive Assistant should have strong proficiency in advanced calendar management, travel coordination, document preparation, discretion with confidential information, and executive communication. Experience supporting C-level leaders is strongly preferred.
