Operations Administrator and Executive Assistant

Aerolane, Dallas, TX, United States


Aerolane | Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex (Onsite with Flexibility)
Be the Right Hand Behind a High-Growth Logistics Innovator
Aerolane is reshaping the future of logistics—delivering shipments at near same-day speed, without the premium cost. Through advanced aviation technology and smarter aircraft capacity optimization, we’re driving efficiency and sustainability across air cargo operations.

Founded in 2021, our team blends deep experience in aviation, logistics, and innovation—supporting government, commercial, and defense customers with cutting‑edge solutions.

Now, we’re looking for a highly trusted, detail-oriented, and proactive Executive Assistant / Operations Administrator to step into a pivotal role supporting executive leadership and keeping the business running at full speed.

Why This Role Stands Out
This is not your typical admin role.

You’ll act as a true right-hand partner to leadership, with visibility across both business priorities and day‑to‑day execution. This is a role for someone who thrives in fast-moving environments, anticipates needs before they happen, and can seamlessly switch between strategic support and hands‑on execution.

High ownership and visibility with leadership

Exposure to a fast‑growing, high‑impact company

Blend of professional + operational + personal support

Opportunity to build trust and become indispensable to the business

What You’ll Do
You will be the central force behind organization, communication, and execution:

Executive & Operational Support

Own and manage complex calendars across business, travel, and personal commitments

Coordinate meetings, priorities, and schedules with precision

Serve as a trusted gatekeeper and communicator on behalf of leadership

Track expenses, manage payments, and support budgeting/reporting

Maintain organization across documents, systems, and workflows

Ensure operational excellence with zero room for errors

Communication & Coordination

Draft and manage executive‑level communications (email, notes, follow‑ups)

Coordinate across internal teams, vendors, and external partners

Represent leadership professionally in all interactions

High-Trust, High-Adaptability Tasks

Handle confidential matters with complete discretion

Manage last‑minute requests, travel logistics, and scheduling changes

Support both business priorities and personal logistics when needed

What We’re Looking For
This role is about trust, polish, and execution just as much as experience.

Must-Haves

Exceptional discretion and ability to handle sensitive/confidential information

Strong communication skills (written and verbal)

Highly organized with the ability to prioritize and stay ahead of shifting demands

Comfortable working in a fast‑paced, evolving environment

Based in the Dallas‑Fort Worth area with ability to be onsite regularly

Nice-to-Haves

Experience supporting executives or C‑level leaders

Exposure to finance tasks (budgeting, expense tracking, payments)

Tech‑savvy: Outlook, Excel, Slack, Zoom, etc.

Experience in startups, logistics, or high‑growth environments

Early‑career candidates are encouraged to apply if you bring strong professionalism, polish, and a learning mindset.

Job Details

Primarily onsite in Dallas‑Fort Worth

(critical for this role)

Expect a dynamic schedule—primarily ~40 hours/week, with occasional evenings or travel as needed

Competitive market‑based salary (based on experience)

Strong benefits package

Direct exposure to leadership and company growth

Opportunity to grow with a scaling organization

Additional Requirements

Authorized to work in the U.S. (no sponsorship required)

Willing to complete background check and drug screening

Able to commute to the DFW office

We’re looking for someone who can stay calm under pressure, anticipate what’s next, and operate with absolute trust and professionalism.

If you’re the person who keeps everything running—no matter what’s happening behind the scenes—this is your opportunity to step into a high‑impact, career‑defining role.
