Executive Assistant to VP of APJ
About the Role
As Fastly’s first and only admin in the APJ region, this role requires a seasoned Executive Assistant who is organized, proactive, and able to operate with a high level of autonomy. You’ll support our VP of APJ and two additional regional leaders located across the broader APJ region, acting as a strategic partner in driving operational efficiency and supporting the success of our growing regional team. You’ll be part of a global admin community that values collaboration, growth, and operational excellence.
What You’ll Do
- Provide high-level administrative support to the VP of APJ and two additional regional leaders, including complex calendar and travel management across time zones.
- Organize and coordinate meetings, offsites, and events—both virtual and in-person—including agendas, materials, and follow-ups.
- Prepare and submit expense reports and assist with invoice processing as needed.
- Handle confidential information with discretion and professionalism.
- Anticipate needs and take initiative to solve problems before they arise.
- Serve as a key point of contact and liaison between APJ leaders and global teams.
- Manage office logistics and regional coordination needs as required.
- Support team culture initiatives and foster strong regional connections.
What We’re Looking For
- 5+ years of Executive Assistant experience supporting multiple leaders, ideally within a multinational corporation (MNC).
- Proven track record of operating independently with minimal oversight.
- Excellent organizational and time management skills with strong attention to detail.
- Strong interpersonal skills and a customer-service mindset.
- Fluency in English (written and spoken) with excellent communication skills.
- Proficiency in Google Workspace and comfort learning new tools.
- A collaborative mindset and eagerness to build community within a global team.
We’ll be super impressed if you have experience in any of these:
- Experience supporting leaders in the tech industry, especially in regional sales or marketing roles.
- Familiarity with tools like Navan, Coupa, Slack, and Zoom.
Work Hours:
This is a full-time, salaried position based in Singapore. The role will require availability during core business hours, typically Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM SGT, with flexibility to support time zone differences as needed for regional coordination (including occasional early morning or evening meetings across APJ).
Work Location(s) & Travel Requirements:
This is a remote role based in Singapore. As Fastly does not currently have an office in the region, the Executive Assistant will work from a home office setup and be expected to operate independently while staying closely connected to global and regional teams.
This role may require up to 20% travel within the APJ region to support in-person leadership meetings, team offsites, and customer-facing engagements. All travel will be coordinated in advance and aligned with business priorities.

We offer a comprehensive benefits package designed to meet your needs. Our offerings may vary depending on the country where you work and are subject to change.
