About Nava

Nava is a consultancy and public benefit corporation working to make government services simple, effective, and accessible to all. Since 2013, federal, state, and local government agencies have trusted Nava to build transformative digital services to help people access public benefits. Meeting our mission is an opportunity to restore trust between people and public institutions. We focus on populations that are the least protected because the stakes are higher.

As a client services company, we work with government agencies to improve how people apply for benefits, navigate their health care, and more. We bill for our time, selling our expertise and problem-solving methodology to government clients. Our clients hire us to help improve their products and services so that their users and beneficiaries have a better customer experience.

These end-users—the humans who benefit from our work—are at the core of everything we do. We research beneficiaries’ needs to help our government clients better deliver on their missions, providing everyone at Nava opportunities to do meaningful, impactful work.

Position Summary

Working directly with the executive team and reporting to the Chief Operating Officer, you will directly support multiple executives, including the Chief of Staff, the Chief Operating Officer, the Chief Executive Officer, and the Chief Financial Officer. Support tasks will include: scheduling and calendar management, email prioritization, travel coordination, expense report management, executive event coordination and executive meeting support. 

Who we are looking for

You are an experienced administrative professional who can quickly build context in complex and distributed environments, and can proactively identify as well as support efforts to improve coordination and operations. You’re a detail-oriented and action-oriented operator, and find success when you’re unlocking the capacity of the teams you work with. You’re proactive – you’re actively thinking about ways communication channels or coordination efforts can be improved, and you know when to ask for help and when to make assumptions and move forwards. You’re collaborative – you value learning from the needs and constraints of different teams and leaders, and finding paths forward that bring people along rather than surprise them.
