  • Turning raw inputs such as emails, notes and spreadsheets into polished presentations and meeting materials

  • Preparing agendas, compiling pre read material and tracking follow up actions from key meetings

  • Helping to design and maintain effective ways of working for the executives you support, including meeting rhythms and communication flows

  • Supporting the planning and delivery of leadership meetings, customer visits and internal or external events

  • Acting as a professional point of contact for internal and external stakeholders and handling sensitive information with discretion

Required Qualifications and Skills:

  • Experience in an administrative, coordination or Executive Assistant role

  • Exposure to supporting leaders, managing calendars, coordinating meetings, arranging travel or handling competing priorities

  • Confident use of Microsoft 365 tools, particularly Outlook, PowerPoint and Excel, and experience working in a digital, Teams based environment

  • Strong organization, attention to detail and follow-through

  • A proactive and forward thinking problem solver who anticipates needs and looks for better ways of doing things

  • Low ego, adaptability and a willingness to learn how senior leaders like to work

  • A polished and professional communication style

  • An interest in understanding the bigger picture and how strong executive support helps the business operate effectively

  • A calm and steady presence under pressure who can juggle shifting demands without losing composure or professionalism
