Position: Executive Assistant (a.k.a. The Alfred to My Batman)

About Me:

I'm Kris, a serial entrepreneur with roots deeply planted in environmental and social impact. From converting my family's old farm into a sustainable tree farm to founding New Majority Capital to empower underrepresented entrepreneurs, while at the same time building a premier outdoor living brand, my passion is blending ambitious business goals with meaningful impact.

Right now, as I manage multiple ventures while also aiming to transform a 90-acre estate into an event and retreat center, the complexity of my commitments has grown exponentially. I'm looking for an "Alfred" to help keep everything aligned and moving forward. Dive deeper into some of my projects and ethos at https://trellisstructures.com and https://newmajoritycapital.com.

The Role:

Ever wondered how Batman keeps Gotham safe while managing Wayne Enterprises? He’s got Alfred. And just like Batman, I need my Alfred. Someone who can juggle tasks with a smile, from wrangling with accountants over tax forms to schmoozing with buyers and brokers. This role is part-time but pivotal—ideal for someone who can lend a few hours each week to orchestrate the behind-the-scenes magic that keeps our empire ticking. While this position offers flexibility, we have a preference for local candidates who can meet in Queens or Nassau at least once a month to ensure smooth coordination and personal interaction.

For clarity, this is not a job with any one of my ventures in particular. You will be employed by my personal hold-co, which owns my equity stake in all of my endeavors. This is a job working with me directly as an entrepreneur. I like to think I am easy to work with, but like many entrepreneurs, while I am very good at strategy and vision I can easily get lost in the details and become disorganized when I have too many conflicting priorities. This role is for someone who can help me triage priorities and stay on track. It may only be 4-6 hours per week for now, but you will gain exposure to all elements of entrepreneurship from the exciting to the tedious.

Who Are You?

A master of organization who finds joy in color-coded calendars and to-do lists that stretch to infinity.

Intrigued by the idea of wearing multiple hats, from marketer to strategist to the personal liaison with business brokers.

A student of life (or maybe an actual student), not looking for a full-time gig but eager for a deep dive into the entrepreneurial ocean.

Dreaming of one day sailing your own ship, whether as an entrepreneur, an investor, or the captain (COO) of this very empire.

What Will You Do?

Keep the trains running on time, whether it’s ensuring marketing materials sparkle or checking in with partners to keep projects on track.

Act as the bridge between dreams and reality, setting up the chessboard for our next big business acquisition.

Navigate the sea of paperwork and forms with the grace of a seasoned sailor, liaising with accountants to decode the mysteries of finance.

Why This Role Rocks:

You get to be Alfred—indispensable, trusted, and always one step ahead. Without you, the Bat-Signal doesn’t even get turned on.

It’s part-time, giving you the freedom to explore other passions while being an integral part of something bigger.

Compensation:

Currently, the majority of my ventures are in the early stages, so the coffers are not exactly flush. This role is ideal for someone who has other means of financial support and is looking for an opportunity with a potentially huge upside. I am offering a stipend to start, with the potential for a significant equity share across all my holdings. This position is perfect for those who can afford to take a risk and are eager to gain valuable experience in entrepreneurship and investment.

How to Apply:

Send your resume over, but more importantly, I want to understand your "why." Forget the standard cover letter; instead, send us an Alfred-worthy introduction: how you’ve organized chaos, navigated the unexpected, and why you’re ready to be the backbone of our ventures. Let's find out if you’ve got the gadgets, the gusto, and the gumption to be the Alfred to my Batman.

P.S. While being an old British gentleman like Alfred is a bonus, it’s not a requirement. This bat-signal is for anyone and everyone—no matter your background, gender, age, or nationality. As long as you’ve got the spirit (cape and butler tray optional), we want you.
