Executive Virtual Assistants
A founder's week fills with other people's requests. An executive virtual assistant from The Peak Hire protects the calendar, triages the inbox, prepares you for the meetings that matter, and follows up on what you promised, so your attention goes to the decisions only you can make.
What your assistant handles
Concrete examples of work clients delegate. Your scope is set on the discovery call and can change as priorities shift.
Calendar control
- Scheduling to your rules on focus blocks and meeting days
- Holding buffers, travel time, and recovery gaps
- Resolving conflicts and negotiating reschedules
- Coordinating multi-party and external meetings
- Keeping a rolling view of the next two weeks
Inbox triage
- Sorting by urgency and owner against your rules
- Drafting routine replies in your voice for approval
- Unsubscribing and filtering noise permanently
- Surfacing the handful of mails that need you today
- Tracking threads waiting on someone else
Meeting preparation and follow-through
- Agendas circulated before the meeting, not after
- Background briefs on people and companies
- Notes and action capture during or after calls
- Chasing the commitments you and others made
- Maintaining a visible open-loops list
Travel and personal logistics
- Itineraries with bookings, transfers, and documents in one place
- Booking within budget rules you set
- Handling changes and cancellations when plans move

- Recurring personal admin you would rather not hold
Who this is for
- Founders and owner-managers with no assistant today

Questions people ask
How much of my inbox can an executive assistant really take?
As much as you are willing to define rules for. Most clients start with triage and drafted replies for routine mail, keep sensitive threads to themselves, and expand once the drafts consistently sound right.
Will they make decisions on my behalf?
Only inside boundaries you write down, such as accepting a meeting that fits your rules or booking travel within a set budget. Anything outside that comes back to you with a recommendation.
Can they work my hours if we are in different time zones?
We match on working-hours overlap. Tell us the hours that must be covered live and we shortlist assistants who can hold them consistently.
How do you handle confidentiality?
Assistants work under confidentiality terms, inside your own tools, with the narrowest access that lets the work happen. You control what is shared and can revoke access at any time.
What if the first match is not right?
Plans are month-to-month, and our 14-day match guarantee covers a free rematch if the fit is wrong. Executive support is personal, so we would rather change the person than have you tolerate it.
