The Role
This is more than a traditional EA position. You'll play a key role in keeping a high-performing Director organised, prepared and operating at their best.
You'll need to be one step ahead, anticipate what's coming next and ensure every detail is taken care of. This is a role for someone who thrives on responsibility, enjoys working at pace and takes genuine pride in being exceptionally good at what they do.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Managing a busy and ever-changing calendar, appointments and meetings
- Coordinating meetings, preparing agendas and ensuring actions are followed up
- Acting as a key point of contact for internal and external stakeholders
- Managing emails, correspondence and competing priorities
- Preparing reports, presentations and business documents
- Coordinating travel, appointments and day-to-day logistics
- Proactively identifying issues, anticipating needs and finding solutions before they're needed
- Handling confidential information with the highest level of discretion
- Providing high-level administrative and operational support
- Keeping the Director organised, accountable and focused on key priorities
About You
You're proactive, switched-on and exceptionally organised. You take ownership, think on your feet and don't need someone constantly looking over your shoulder. You understand the importance of being two steps ahead and take pride in making things happen behind the scenes.
To be successful, you'll have:
- Previous Executive Assistant experience is essential
- Experience supporting a Director, CEO or senior executive
- Exceptional organisational skills and attention to detail
- The ability to manage competing priorities in a fast-paced environment
- Strong written and verbal communication skills
- A high level of professionalism, discretion and confidentiality
- Excellent initiative and a solutions-focused mindset
- The confidence to make decisions, anticipate needs and work autonomously
- A strong work ethic, sense of urgency and commitment to delivering results
- The ability to remain calm, composed and effective under pressure
Who This Role Will SuitYou're ambitious, hardworking and thrive in a high-performance environment. You enjoy being busy, take pride in staying organised and get satisfaction from making sure everything runs like clockwork.
You're not someone who waits to be told what to do. You take initiative, think ahead and get things done. You understand that the little details matter, you're comfortable managing a demanding workload and you're always looking for ways to work smarter.
If you're an experienced EA ready to step into a role where you can make a genuine impact, work closely with a high-performing Director and become an invaluable part of the business, we want to hear from you.
