Job Description

Apesan is one of Europe’s leading manufacturers of custom-fit automotive floor mats.

We design and produce high-quality TPE and textile mats for global customers—from aftermarket distributors to OEMs and e-commerce consumers.


We’re a fast-growing, family-owned manufacturing company with a practical, hands-on culture. Our team includes 10+ white-collar and 50+ total employees, supported by strong international partners.


As we expand our global operations, we’re looking for a dependable, organized, and resourceful Executive Operations Assistant to work directly with our Managing Partner and help keep company priorities on track.

Qualifications We Are Looking For

This role functions like a CEO’s Office position in a start-up — but within a dynamic, family-owned manufacturing and consumer products company.


You’ll work side-by-side with the Managing Partner to manage priorities, follow-ups, communication, and team coordination across departments and partners. Expect to work from a cozy office right in the heart of our bustling industrial site — where the real action happens.


You’ll handle diverse daily tasks, from scheduling and recruitment support to project follow-ups. Over time, this position can evolve into broader coordination or management responsibilities as the company grows and you grow with it.

  • Comfortable managing both simple tasks and complex communications.

  • Positive, loyal, trustworthy, and discreet.

  • Proficient with Google Workspace (Docs, Sheets, Slides, Calendar, Drive).

  • Experience with Asana is a strong plus.

  • Prior experience in manufacturing or international company settings is an advantage.


Key Responsibilities


  • Manage the Managing Partner’s daily schedule, priorities, and follow-ups.

  • Follow up on priority actions assigned to direct reports.

  • Organize travel, meetings, and visitor logistics.

  • Handle daily operational paperwork (expenses, contracts, signatures, etc.).

  • Prepare meeting notes, summaries, and short reports.

  • Keep Asana boards and Google documents organized and up to date.

  • Own company communications content on digital mediums such as LinkedIn and corporate web page and physical events such as exhibitions.

  • Track key legal topics such as IPs.



Rights


  • Schedule: Monday–Friday, 08:00–17:30 (on-site, 5 days)
