Pia G.
Freelance Executive Business Partner & C-Suite Executive Assistant
HIGH GROWTH START-UP SPECIALIST! ABOUT ME — WHAT YOU GET WHEN YOU HIRE ME You're a busy founder, CEO, or executive who needs more than a task-taker — you need a trusted right hand who thinks three steps ahead, never drops a ball, and makes you look good in every room (virtual or otherwise). That's exactly what I do. With 20+ years supporting C-Suite executives across energy, finance, and tech — including fully remote roles — I bring the polish of an in-house EA with the flexibility of a freelancer. I hold the globally recognized Certified World Class Assistant (CWCA) designation and have supported boards of directors, managed multi-country offices, and secured over $1.7M in grant funding for clients in Canada. ◆ WHY CLIENTS CHOOSE ME OVER OTHER FREELANCERS → I've done this at the highest level — CEOs, CFOs, COOs, and Boards of Directors, not just managers. → Remote-first since 2024: I'm set up, disciplined, and proven in async/virtual environments across time zones. → I treat your business like my own — proactive, not reactive. I anticipate issues before they become problems. → Certified World Class Assistant (CWCA) — one of a small group of EAs in Canada to hold this credential. → No learning curve on governance: I've run board meetings, filed SEDI & SEDAR, and administered Diligent portals. → Flexible engagement: hourly, retainer, or project-based. I scale to your needs. ◆ SERVICES I OFFERINGS 📅 Calendar & Scheduling · Complex multi-exec calendars · Time zone management · Meeting prep & follow-up · Outlook & Google Calendar ✈️ Travel Management · End-to-end itineraries · Flight, hotel & car booking · Visa & logistics support · Expense reconciliation 📋 Board & Governance Support · Agenda & minutes writing · Diligent Board portal admin · Resolution & filing prep · Director communications 💼 Virtual Office Management · Inbox & email triage · Vendor & supplier liaison · Document & records mgmt · SOP creation 📣 Communications & PR · Stakeholder correspondence · Press release distribution · SEDAR / MarketWire filings · Social media management 📊 Projects & Research · Project coordination (AutoTask) · Online research & reporting · Grant writing & applications · KPI tracking & reporting 🎉 Events & Coordination · Corporate events & retreats · Conference registration · Team & volunteer events · Vendor coordination 🔒 Confidential Support · NDA & contract admin · C-suite level discretion · Sensitive file management · HR support & onboarding
