As an Executive Business Administrator, you'll provide strategic, high-impact support to four senior leaders in GitLab's People Group: the VP of Total Rewards, VP of Talent Acquisition, VP of People Strategy and Engagement, and VP of Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging. You'll create leverage for these executives by managing complex calendars and travel across time zones, planning key team events, supporting recruiting and onboarding activities, and staying ahead of what's needed so they can focus on leading and scaling our GitLab team. You'll work primarily across Google Workspace, Slack, Zoom, Navan, and GitLab, toggling between them with ease while identifying priorities, resolving conflicts, and escalating urgent issues when needed. In your first year, you'll establish trusted partnerships with each VP, bring consistency and reliability to their operations, and contribute to the broader EBA community by sharing best practices and stepping in to support other executives when required.
What You’ll Do
The Executive Business Administrator will join GitLab's People Group and includes Total Rewards, Talent Acquisition, People Strategy and Engagement, and Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging. This distributed group partners across GitLab to attract, support, and retain team members while building an inclusive, values-aligned culture. You'll be part of a broader community of EBAs who collaborate asynchronously across time zones using GitLab, Google Workspace, Slack, and Zoom to stay aligned, share knowledge, and provide continuous coverage. The team is focused on scaling people programs, improving processes, and enabling senior People leaders to spend more time on strategic work that supports GitLab's mission and growth.
