Senior EA

We're looking for a brilliant, highly organised and proactive person to work closely with the MD of a growing, purpose-driven business.

It is an opportunity to become a trusted right hand to the MD, playing a pivotal role in how the business operates, how priorities are managed and how ideas are turned into action.

You will be the person who creates clarity in a fast-moving environment, connects people and priorities, anticipates what is needed next and ensures that the MD's time, energy and attention are focused where they matter most.

• Managing the MD's diary, helping prioritise competing demands and making sure time is spent on the things that matter most.
• Anticipating what's coming up, spotting potential issues and making sure everything is in place before it's needed.
• Organising meetings, travel and events, preparing agendas and presentations, and making sure actions don't get forgotten.
• Working with people across the business and external contacts to keep communication flowing and everyone moving in the same direction.
• Following up on projects, decisions and commitments, making sure things get done and nothing slips through the cracks.
• Improving systems and ways of working, helping with day-to-day operations, paperwork, expenses, invoices and contracts.
• Helping with personal appointments, family scheduling, correspondence and other commitments, always with sensitivity and discretion.

• 5 + years' experience supporting a CEO, founder, Managing Director or another senior leader.

• Is naturally organised and loves bringing structure to a busy environment.
• Thinks ahead rather than simply reacting to what's in front of them.
• Can juggle lots of different things without losing sight of the priorities.
• Is confident, personable and comfortable dealing with people at all levels.
• Has excellent communication skills and can bring clarity when things feel complicated.
• Uses initiative, solves problems and doesn't need to be chased to get things done.
• Has good judgement and understands the importance of trust, confidentiality and discretion.
• Is adaptable, resourceful and happy to roll up their sleeves when needed.
• Is comfortable with Microsoft Office and everyday digital tools.
• Has experience organising events and coordinating people across different locations.
• Feels genuinely connected to working in a business with a bigger purpose.
