The operations assistant who keeps the machine running.
SOPs written, vendors chased, reports delivered and onboarding checklists done — a full-time ops teammate for COOs, founders and team leads.
Back-office work, owned end to end.
Operations work is the glue nobody budgets for: the vendor renewal nobody tracked, the onboarding checklist that lives in someone's head, the weekly report assembled at midnight.
An ExecWing Operations Assistant takes recurring processes, documents them, runs them and tells you when something drifts. You get fewer surprises and a business that's easier to scale.

Operations Assistants: common questions
What's the difference between an operations assistant and an EA?
An EA is organized around one leader's time; an operations assistant is organized around processes and systems that serve the team.
Can they build automations?
Yes, within reason — Zapier/Make workflows, templates and dashboards. Complex engineering stays with your team.
Will they write our SOPs?
Yes. A common first project is documenting the 10–20 recurring processes that live in people's heads.
Can they handle HR tasks?
Coordination and logistics, yes. Employment decisions, legal HR advice and payroll approval stay with you.
