About the Role

The Executive Assistant will provide high-level administrative and strategic support to two senior marketing leaders at Sam’s Club: the Chief Marketing Officer (SVP of Marketing) and the Vice President of Marketing Strategy & Planning.

This isn’t a traditional EA role. It’s a chance to be the right hand to senior executives leading one of the most ambitious marketing transformations in retail. Sam’s Club Marketing is evolving into a modern, member-first, culture-led organization — and this role ensures our leaders can move faster, think bigger, and focus on what matters most.

We’re looking for a force multiplier — someone who brings sharp judgment, impeccable organization, and a proactive mindset. The ideal candidate thrives in complexity, can anticipate needs before they arise, and takes pride in being a trusted partner, connector, and problem-solver. If you’re looking to play a critical role at the intersection of strategy, leadership, and execution — this is it.

• Act as a strategic gatekeeper and enabler — managing complex calendars, aligning priorities, and ensuring leaders’ time is spent on the highest-impact work.

• Own the rhythm of the business — from coordinating staff meetings, off-sites, and leadership sessions to ensuring clear agendas, logistics, and follow-through.

• Master complex travel logistics — managing domestic and international travel (including charter and private aviation), often with multiple moving parts and last-minute pivots.

• Drive operational excellence — handling expenses, vendor invoicing, and reporting with accuracy and timeliness.

• Be a trusted advisor and problem-solver — anticipating needs, offering creative solutions, and helping navigate challenges with discretion and professionalism.

• Represent Sam’s Club Marketing with confidence and polish — serving as the first point of contact for senior leaders, external partners, and cross-functional stakeholders.

• Exceptional organizational skills with the ability to think two steps ahead and pivot seamlessly in a fast-paced, high-stakes environment.

• Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Office (especially PowerPoint), Microsoft Teams, Zoom, ServiceNow, Concur, and travel systems.

• Strong communication skills — written and verbal — with the ability to represent executives and the organization with professionalism and warmth.

• Comfort working in a large, matrixed organization; Walmart experience is a plus, but not required.

• A balance of humility and confidence — able to work behind the scenes with discretion while also influencing outcomes and connecting dots across the organization.

Sam’s Club is one of the fastest-growing retailers in the U.S., and our Marketing practice is at the forefront of that growth. We’re building a bold, modern, member-first marketing engine that is redefining what a challenger brand can be. Joining this team means stepping into an environment that is ambitious, fast-moving, and collaborative — where your role as Executive Assistant will have an outsized impact on how effectively our leaders deliver for our members.

This is a chance to grow your career alongside senior leaders, while being embedded in a team that prizes excellence, creativity, and speed.
