About Savas

Savas is a Nashville-based luxury leather house dedicated to modern heirlooms — pieces defined by precision, soul, and permanence. Founded by designer Savannah Yarborough, Savas creates made-to-measure and ready-to-wear leather garments for an international clientele of artists, innovators, and collectors who value craftsmanship and individuality.

We are an enthusiastic, tight-knit team who share a pride of self, place, and work — and believe that the combination of exceptional hospitality, strong relationships, and uncompromising quality of workmanship creates an environment unlike any other.

The Role

The Executive Assistant serves as the connective tissue between the CEO/Designer, internal team, and external partners. This role requires extraordinary organization, discretion, intuition, and a deep understanding of creative business rhythms. You will help protect Savannah’s time and focus — managing communication, logistics, and priorities across design, operations, and brand initiatives.

This is not a traditional administrative position. It’s an immersive role inside a fast-moving creative company, supporting both business and artistic leadership.

Responsibilities

• Executive Support & Scheduling
• Manage and prioritize the CEO’s calendar across design, client, and business operations.
• Coordinate meetings, fittings, travel, and personal appointments with precision and discretion.
• Anticipate needs before they arise; ensure Savannah’s days flow efficiently and thoughtfully.
• Handle confidential correspondence and documents with professionalism and care.

Communication & Coordination

• Serve as the first point of contact for the CEO — filtering communications, maintaining professionalism, and protecting time.
• Prepare meeting materials, agendas, and follow-ups.
• Liaise between internal teams (design, production, operations) and external partners to ensure clarity and alignment.
• Excellent written and verbal communication

Operational & Administrative Support

• Manage expense reports, vendor coordination, and light bookkeeping as needed.
• Assist with event planning, client appointments, and trunk shows.
• Support brand initiatives and special projects — from production timelines to investor meetings.

Creative Rhythm

• Understand and adapt to the unique cadence of a designer-led luxury brand.
• Maintain awareness of Savas’s brand voice, aesthetic, and clientele.
• Help bridge the creative and operational — ensuring the vision translates seamlessly into execution.

Who You Are

• A highly organized operator who thrives in ambiguity and brings structure to a creative environment.
• A clear communicator — polished, warm, and discreet.
• A proactive problem solver who anticipates needs rather than reacts to them.
• Deeply attuned to detail — from the tone of an email to the flow of a day.
• Comfortable balancing professional and personal support with good judgment and boundaries.
• Tech-savvy (Google Workspace, shopify, digital calendar systems).

Preferred Experience

• 3–5 years of experience supporting an executive, ideally in a creative, luxury, or design environment.
• Experience in small business or startup operations is a plus.
• Interest for design, craftsmanship, and the creative process.
• Diligent time management skills

Location

This is a full-time, in-person role based in Nashville, TN, at the Savas HQ in the Wedgewood Houston neighborhood. The position will occasionally require weekend and event-specific hours to support fittings, client experiences, and brand gatherings.
