About the Role

Polymarket is looking for an Executive Assistant to support our Legal team. You'll work directly with the Chief Legal Officer and Deputy CLO, keeping a busy, fast-moving legal function running smoothly — managing complex calendars, coordinating travel, and handling the administrative details that keep the team focused on high-priority work.

This role is well suited to someone with prior experience in a law firm environment or a recent graduate with an interest in law. You'll be embedded in the Legal team's day-to-day, exposed to a broad range of legal and regulatory work, and trusted with sensitive information from day one.

What You'll Do

  • Manage complex, heavily overlapping calendars for the CLO and Deputy CLO — anticipating conflicts, prioritizing effectively, and keeping schedules airtight

  • Coordinate all travel logistics including flights, hotels, ground transportation, and itineraries for periodic travel related to hearings and conferences

  • Track and maintain deadlines including lobbyist registration renewals and continuing legal education requirements

  • Monitor and manage incoming mail and email, flagging time-sensitive items and routing correspondence appropriately

  • Support the broader Legal team with administrative tasks including filing, document organization, and deadline tracking

  • Serve as a reliable point of contact for internal and external stakeholders on behalf of the Legal team

What We're Looking For

  • Meticulous attention to detail — you catch the small things before they become big problems

  • Calm under pressure with the ability to manage multiple calendars and competing priorities simultaneously

  • Absolute discretion — you'll be trusted with privileged and confidential materials as a core part of this role

  • Clear, professional written and verbal communication

  • Proactive and organized with a low-ego, no-task-too-small attitude

  • (Plus) Prior experience at a law firm as a legal secretary, legal assistant, or in an administrative support role

  • (Plus) Familiarity with regulatory or compliance tracking (lobbyist registrations, CLE deadlines, or similar)

Benefits

  • Competitive salary & equity

  • Unlimited PTO

  • Full Health, Vision, & Dental coverage

  • 401k match

  • Hardware setup: new MacBook Pro, big display, & accessories
