ABOUT THE X-GROUP OF COMPANIES
"We generate and deliver kilowatts using advanced technology, to give back with endless energy".
Most power system providers limit support to their own brands. We founded X-Group with the core objective to change this practice in the industry. In 2020, we assembled a team of seasoned experts, proficient in a diverse array of power equipment. From that point onward we’ve made it our mission to deliver the X-FACTOR experience with cross-platform energy solutions that reduce cost and carbon footprint. We believe companies should never put product sales ahead of their customers' success. Guided by this principle, our vendor-neutral approach considers all possibilities of OEM hardware, optimizing for our clients’ needs, budget and future.
We listen and help you solve for X.
We help our clients benefit from new technologies for intelligent ESG (environmental, social, and governance) performance growth, with lifecycle support that moves them from feeling cornered to confident. We walk through every project phase, from concept to completion for all rotating equipment, guiding with the capability and synergy of our robust group of companies.
We are the world's leading provider of cross-platform solutions for evolving power systems.
The future of power is bright.

WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Executive Support: Keep the CEO organized, prepared, and (mostly) on schedule. Assist with presentations, reports, and daily priorities.
- Scheduling & Logistics: Own the calendar, manage meetings, and handle travel arrangements with the precision of an air traffic controller.
- Problem Solving: Handle last-minute changes, conflicting priorities, and unexpected surprises like a pro.
- Communication: Draft emails, respond to inquiries, and ensure the right messages get to the right people at the right time.
- Confidentiality & Discretion: Some things are meant for the boardroom, not the break room. Handle sensitive business and personal matters with care.
- Personal Organization: From scheduling appointments to remembering that one thing that fell off the CEO’s radar, you keep it all running smoothly.
- Negotiation & Decision Making: Book flights, secure reservations, and manage vendors—sometimes at the last minute. Your ability to get things done (without breaking the bank) is key.
- Tech-Savviness: Use software, apps, and digital tools like a second language. If you can fix a Wi-Fi issue in a pinch, even better.
- Travel & Adaptability: Be ready to pack a bag—sometimes with little warning. Airports, new cities, and shifting plans should be exciting, not overwhelming. Extensive travel may be required.
- Deliver the X-FACTOR experience through excellence, expertise and extraordinary service.
WHAT YOU'LL BRING
- 3-5 years of experience as an Executive Assistant, Personal Assistant, or Administrative Professional supporting senior leadership.
- Exceptional organizational skills—because if you're not on top of it, no one is.
- Quick thinking and adaptability—the ability to shift gears without breaking a sweat.
- Strong written and verbal communication—whether it’s a persuasive email or a direct, no-nonsense message.
- Creative problem-solving—you find solutions where others see dead ends.
- Entrepreneurial mindset—you take initiative, own your work, and figure things out.
- Tech-savvy and a fast learner—because “I don’t know how to do that” isn’t part of your vocabulary.
- Strong negotiation skills—getting the best deal, the best seat, or the best schedule is second nature.
- A sense of humor—because sometimes, you just have to laugh.Education & Experience:
