Executive Assistant (Remote, GMT)

About the company: In the coming decades, demand for critical minerals such as copper, lithium, and cobalt will continue to grow. These minerals are needed to build electric infrastructure, vehicles, data centers, and electronics. However, the mining industry is making 10x fewer discoveries per dollar spent on exploration compared to 30 years ago because the easy-to-find, near surface deposits have largely been discovered. KoBold was founded to be the first AI native mineral exploration, mine development, and technology development company. Our goal is to turn mineral exploration into a repeatable science to discover the minerals the world needs—by integrating artificial intelligence, human intelligence, and new technology. Our multidisciplinary teams of data scientists, engineers, and geologists work together to build data systems, design new sensors, and establish industry-leading workflows to develop and test subsurface predictions on our exploration projects. Our first discovery, Mingomba, is a high-grade copper deposit in Zambia, found after spending materially less than industry average. We are developing Mingomba with the same technical rigor that we apply to exploration. The Mingomba team brings together mine and processing engineers, geologists, data scientists, software engineers, and community, health & safety, construction, and operations specialists. By combining industry knowledge and cutting edge technology, we are developing Mingomba into a world class project that has safer and more predictable outcomes for ourselves, partners, and communities. It is expected to create thousands of good jobs for generations. KoBold runs exploration programs in eight countries, all with the potential for another discovery. KoBold is privately held; investors include institutional asset managers T. Rowe Price and Canada Pension Plan Investments; technology venture capitalists Andreessen Horowitz, Breakthrough Energy Ventures, BOND Capital, Durable Capital, StepStone, and Standard Investments; and strategic natural resources companies BHP and Mitsubishi. About the Role We're looking for a sharp, systems-minded Executive Assistant to support our Chief Investment Officer based in London, and 2 VPs (one in London and one in South Africa). You'll be embedded in a fast-moving, Slack-first culture where things change quickly, and attention to detail is the difference between smooth and chaotic. You'll be trusted with sensitive information and high-visibility communications that touch every employee at KoBold. We take hiring seriously, because we're building a team, not just filling a seat. If you move forward, you'll complete a timed written assessment designed to test your judgment, resourcefulness, and communication under pressure. From there, you'll interview with our EA team and, if you advance, with the executives you'd be supporting directly. We're a remote company, which means communication and collaboration aren't nice-to-haves. They're the foundation of how we operate. Our EA team is tight-knit and genuinely invested in each other's success, and we're looking for someone who will add to that, not just show up and do their own thing. The process takes time by design. We want to make sure this is the right fit for you as much as it is for us.
