Legal Executive Assistant

Thanks for your interest in Oklo! We are searching for an Legal Executive Assistant to support our General Counsel and our broader Legal team.

Oklo is seeking an experienced, dynamic, technically capable Legal Executive Assistant to support our General Counsel, and also to provide comprehensive administrative and operational support to our entire Legal team. You will help our General Counsel with calendar management, scheduling meetings, helping to prepare content and materials, supporting notary or apostille needs, etc. But you will also support the broader Legal team, including helping to plan and organize team travel and offsites, overseeing outside counsel billing and accruals, supporting new team member onboarding, and providing other administrative and operational support.

This role demands a combination of administrative prowess and the agility to navigate a fast-moving company in order to support our lean Legal function as it continues to scale to support Oklo’s rapid growth. We are looking for someone who is creative and can leverage AI and other tools to provide support at scale.

Discretion is essential to this role. The Legal Executive Assistant will regularly handle highly confidential and sensitive information relating to the important matters being handled by the Legal team. Given the significance and scope of this work, the successful candidate must demonstrate sound judgment and treat confidentiality, compliance, and accountability as fundamental responsibilities of the position.

This is a remote US-based role, but you must be able to travel to our HQ twice per quarter. Given that our General Counsel is based in California, there is a slight preference for this person to be located in the Pacific time zone.
