Executive Business Partner, GTM

As an Executive Business Partner, you’ll work alongside four GTM leaders: the CRO, VP of Marketing, VP of Customer Success, and SVP of Business Development.

This is a partner role, not a scheduling role. You’ll know the business, use your own judgment to move decisions forward, and help these leaders plan their time, prepare for the conversations that matter, and follow through on what comes out of them.

This is a hybrid role based in the San Francisco Bay Area, with at least two days a week onsite at our SF office. You’ll report to the Senior Manager of Executive Operations.

About the Team

The GTM organization at CircleCI spans Revenue, Marketing, Customer Success, and Business Development. These teams work in quarterly revenue cycles and depend on strong operational support to stay focused on customers and pipeline. You’ll join the Executive Business Partner team, which holds shared standards and meets weekly, and work alongside the EBPs who support the rest of our senior leadership.

What You’ll Do

Calendars and meeting preparation

• Manage the CRO’s calendar with a clear view across the revenue calendar, fiscal quarter, pipeline review cadence, and board cycles to help navigate dependencies.
• Prepare for meetings: gather briefing documents, send pre-reads proactively, and make sure the context is in hand before the meeting starts.
• Support customer meetings, a big part of GTM: schedule them, prepare briefing materials, coordinate travel and onsite visits, and follow up afterward.
• Support the VP of Marketing’s calendar across campaign cycles, product launches, analyst briefings, and external partner engagements.
• Prepare the VP of Customer Success for Executive Business Reviews, renewal windows, and key account conversations, and handle the cross-functional coordination they require.
• Handle scheduling and external logistics for the SVP of Business Development, including partner meetings, introductions, and multi-party deal coordination with Legal, Finance, and Product.

Follow-through and coordination

• Attend meetings with any of the four leaders as needed, so you have the context to follow up and move things forward.
• Track action items for all four leaders, close the loop on every commitment, and flag anything at risk of slipping before it does.
• Work across Sales, Marketing, Customer Success, Finance, Legal, and People, building relationships and getting things moving.
• Book travel, review expenses, and handle the other day-to-day needs of the four leaders.
• Handle board-related logistics and documents with discretion and accuracy.

All-hands and events

• Plan and facilitate the preparation and execution of our quarterly GTM all-hands calls.
• Plan and run GTM team events and offsites, including our annual Kickoff and President’s Club. You’ll own event planning cadence with other stakeholders, day of event logistics, agendas, and vendor coordination.

Team and tools

• Take part in the weekly EBP team meeting and help the team hold each other accountable.
• Use AI tools daily to draft communications, prepare briefings, and summarize information, in line with CircleCI’s AI fluency expectations.

Who You Are

• 8+ years of experience as an Executive Business Partner or Executive Assistant supporting C-suite or senior GTM leaders in a fast-paced tech company.
• You understand how revenue organizations work: what quarter-end means, what a pipeline review needs, and how the last weeks of a quarter change everything.
• You’re a proactive calendar manager. You anticipate conflicts, protect focus time, and decide routine matters without asking permission.
• You have strong follow-through. When you own something, you finish it.
• You use good judgment about when to act and when to escalate, and your aim is to reduce the decisions your leaders have to make.
• You build trust and coordinate across teams without formal authority. Your ability to influence matters.
• You write and speak clearly and effectively, and when you communicate on a leader’s behalf, it reflects well on them.
• You stay calm and focused when priorities change.
• You’re curious about the business and want to understand how the company makes money, beyond managing schedules.

Nice to Have

• You love planning events, large and small, from a leadership dinner to a company-wide kickoff.

How CircleCI Uses AI in Hiring

At CircleCI, people make our hiring decisions. We use technology to support our recruiting team so they can spend more time on what matters most: getting to know you.

Where we may use AI

• Job descriptions and messaging: AI may help draft job descriptions and role-specific messaging so they are clear and accurate.
• Application review: For some roles, we use an AI tool to review applications, including resumes and application responses, against criteria our hiring team sets for the role. The tool generates a fit score and summary to help recruiters organize and prioritize applications.
• Interview notes: With advance notice, an AI note-taking tool may join interviews to record, transcribe, and summarize the conversation. This lets interviewers focus on talking with you. You will be told before each interview, and you may opt out at any stage by letting your recruiter know. If you opt out, the tool will not join, and your candidacy is not affected.
• Outreach: AI may help draft candidate outreach and scheduling messages, which our team reviews before sending.

Our commitment

AI does not make hiring decisions at CircleCI. Our recruiters and hiring teams review candidates and make every decision to advance or reject an application. No candidate is rejected based solely on an AI score. We have tools and processes in place to test for bias and to review how these tools perform, and we adjust our approach as AI technology and the laws that govern it change.

Your choices

You can ask for human-only review of your application, opt out of AI interview note-taking, request an accommodation, or ask questions about how we use AI. Contact recruiting@circleci.com. For how we handle your data, including retention, see our Privacy Policy.
