As Senior Executive Business Partner, you'll help GitLab's Chief Financial Officer stay focused on the work that matters most as the company enters a pivotal new chapter. GitLab is moving deliberately toward faster, more focused execution and an AI-native operating model built around customer outcomes. This role sits at the center of that motion.

This is a high-trust, high-autonomy role for someone who brings both strong execution and sound judgment. You won't wait to be told what's needed, you'll anticipate it, shape it, and move on it. You'll help the CFO and the broader Office of the CFO operate with clarity, speed, and discipline in an environment where priorities shift, decisions have real stakes, and the quality of follow-through directly affects outcomes across the business.

This role goes beyond traditional executive support. You'll help run the Office of the CFO by owning its operating rhythms, reducing friction in how work gets done, and ensuring the right decisions get made by the right people at the right time with minimal unnecessary escalation or overhead.

You’ll work fluidly across tools including Google Workspace, Slack, Navan, Zoom, GitLab, and Claude to manage competing demands, synthesize information quickly, and keep high-value work moving.

About the Team

The Executive Business Administration function supports GitLab leaders by creating the operational foundation that enables effective, low-friction work across a highly remote, asynchronous environment.

In this role, you'll work closely with the CFO and partner with administrative partners across the organization to coordinate priorities, improve visibility, and keep important work moving. You'll also play an active role in shaping how the Office of the CFO operates with the goal of improving its cadences, strengthening its follow-through, and helping the function run in a way that reflects where GitLab is headed, not just where it's been.

This team operates with high trust and high autonomy. It's the right fit for someone who combines precise execution with organizational instinct and who finds satisfaction not just in keeping things running, but in making them meaningfully better.

Key Responsibilities

Maintain regular in-person availability in San Francisco, CA, reflecting the hands-on nature of executive support within an otherwise remote-first company.
Manage complex calendars by vetting requests, prioritizing meetings, and making clear recommendations about tradeoffs protecting the CFO's time for the work that creates the most impact.
Proactively manage inbound requests to the CFO by framing issues, surfacing options, and driving decisions forward reducing handoffs and keeping accountability close to the work.
Own and continuously improve the leadership cadences across the Office of the CFO, including staff meetings, planning rhythms, and other operating mechanisms, tightening cycles, and removing overhead wherever possible.
Champion accountability and excellence across the EBA team while maintaining active coordination with the Office of the CRO to keep priorities aligned and support flowing across both functions.
Prepare agendas, briefing materials, and meeting content with enough lead time for thoughtful review, ensuring discussions are focused, prepared, and connected to outcomes that matter.
Track follow-ups, action items, and commitments across the CFO's direct reports and functional peers, and actively hold the organization to account on open items.
Help the CFO maintain clear visibility into team progress, emerging issues, and customer-connected outcomes across the finance organization.
Build trusted working relationships with leaders, direct reports, and key individual contributors staying close enough to the work to provide genuinely informed insight, not just logistical support.
Partner with People Operations, IT, recruiting, and other Executive Business Partners to resolve logistics, schedule interviews, coordinate onboarding, and provide coverage when needed.
Plan and manage team meetings, onsites, and events, owning agenda development, pre-meeting prep, note-taking, action item tracking, and budget support, and using AI tools to reduce routine work so your energy stays on higher-leverage contributions.
Coordinate end-to-end travel logistics, including transportation, lodging, security, visas, and related documentation.
Process expense reports and monitor reimbursements with accuracy and timely follow-through.

What You'll Bring

Experience supporting senior executives in a fast-moving environment, with the judgment to navigate shifting priorities, sensitive matters, and real ambiguity without waiting for a playbook.
A working style built on ownership: you anticipate what's needed, make calls where you can, and escalate only what genuinely requires it.
The ability to move quickly without sacrificing quality; disciplined execution, reliable output, and a high bar for follow-through even when the pace is fast.
Willingness to provide regular in-person support in San Francisco, CA to meet the needs of the CFO.
Comfort operating in a leaner, more empowered structure where fewer people own more, and where your contributions are visible and consequential.
Strong executive communication skills, including the ability to synthesize information fast, frame recommendations clearly, and ensure the right content reaches the right people at the right time.
A demonstrated instinct for connecting operational work to real outcomes not just completing tasks, but understanding why they matter and whether they're producing results.
Strong interpersonal skills and the ability to build trusted relationships across leaders, peers, and key contributors while maintaining discretion with confidential information.
Fluency with tools including Google Workspace, Slack, Zoom, Navan, and GitLab, and comfort using AI tools to improve your own productivity and output quality.
A collaborative, self-directed approach. Someone who brings transferable judgment and initiative, not just familiarity with a specific set of tools or processes.
