Senior Executive Assistant

Arthrex | Solihull / Hybrid Working

Are you a trusted Executive Assistant, exceptional organiser and always one step ahead.

Behind every effective senior leader is someone who knows what matters, what needs to happen next and what must remain confidential.

At Arthrex, we’re looking for two exceptional Senior Executive Assistants to support our Regional North EMEA Director and designated senior leaders across North Western Europe.

The role requires a highly organised, dependable and resourceful individual who demonstrates exceptional attention to detail, anticipates requirements, exercises independent judgement and acts as a trusted point of contact for internal and external stakeholders.

Someone who thrives on responsibility, earns trust through their actions and brings calm, control and clarity to a fast-moving international business.

What will you bring to the role?

• Trust and discretion: You handle sensitive information with absolute professionalism, integrity and sound judgement.
• Masterful prioritisation: You manage competing demands confidently, protect executive time and know when to act, challenge or escalate.
• Proactive thinking: You anticipate needs, identify potential issues before they arise and find solutions without waiting to be asked.
• Exceptional organisation: From complex diaries and international travel to leadership meetings, presentations and projects, you make the complicated look effortless.
• Accuracy and accountability: You take ownership, manage the details and ensure commitments are delivered reliably and on time.
• Digital confidence: You’re highly proficient in Microsoft 365 and experienced in using AI tools to improve efficiency and ways of working.

You’ll be responsible for:

• Executive and administrative support
• Meeting, travel and event coordination
• Communication and stakeholder management
• Management information and project coordination
• Quality, accuracy and accountability

What are we looking for?

You’ll bring proven experience supporting directors, VPs or equivalent senior leaders, ideally within an international or multinational organisation. You’ll be confident dealing with stakeholders at all levels, communicating with diplomacy and working independently in a role where priorities can change quickly.

A calm head, outstanding attention to detail and the confidence to exercise independent judgement are essential. A relevant professional qualification is welcome, but your experience, integrity and approach matter most.

Education and professional experience

• Proven experience as an Executive Assistant or Senior Management Assistant supporting director-level, VP-level or equivalent senior leadership.
• Demonstrated experience managing complex schedules, international travel and competing executive priorities.
• Advanced proficiency in Microsoft 365 applications, particularly Outlook, Teams, PowerPoint, Word and Excel.
• Proven experience in working with Artificial intelligence and providing working efficiencies across various business practices.
• Experience working in an international or multinational organisation is advantageous.
• A relevant professional qualification is welcomed but a university degree is not essential.

Personal competencies and attributes

• Exceptional attention to detail, accuracy and reliability.
• Proactive, forward-thinking and able to anticipate requirements.
• Strong organisational skills and effective prioritisation.
• High integrity, discretion and trustworthiness.
• Confident, diplomatic and professional communication.
• Ability to work independently, exercise sound judgement and take initiative.
• Adaptability, resilience and composure under pressure.
• Strong interpersonal skills and a collaborative, service-oriented mindset.
• Willingness to challenge constructively and suggest improvements.
