Culture Guru is recruiting an outstanding Executive Assistant to support one C‑suite leader and one senior leader within a large, established and highly respected organisation in the property and development sector.

🎯 This is a high‑profile, fast‑paced role in a traditional, high‑standard head office environment where excellence, judgement and presence really matter. For the right person, it’s a chance to operate at the centre of senior decision‑making and make a genuine impact every day.

🧠 You’ll work with two respected and influential leaders with different but complementary styles – one fast‑moving and demanding, who values initiative, confidence and pace; and another who is collaborative, steady and widely trusted, with teams who rely on him. Both are well‑regarded internally and externally, and both operate at the heart of the business.

⏱️ The pace is busy and dynamic. On occasion (typically around once a quarter), there may be very early starts for senior or board‑level meetings, in which case a private taxi will be provided. From time to time, days may also run a little longer when the business needs it, so flexibility is important. Day‑to‑day, however, the role follows a normal full‑time office rhythm.

📬 You’ll be the person who brings structure, clarity and momentum: shaping diaries, controlling inboxes, coordinating C‑suite and senior leadership meetings, preparing high‑quality packs, and making sure nothing important slips.

• You’re supporting C‑suite and senior leadership at the top of the organisation
• You’ll be trusted with board‑level work, senior stakeholders and high‑impact priorities
• This is a visible, high‑impact role where your work genuinely matters
• You’ll operate in a large, established, influential business with scale and substance
• The scope goes well beyond diary management – you’ll help shape how senior leadership operates day to day
• It’s a serious career EA role for someone who wants challenge, pace and responsibility

• Running complex, fast‑moving diaries for C‑suite and senior leaders
• Owning high‑volume inbox management, drafting responses and driving actions forward
• Orchestrating C‑suite, board and senior leadership meetings end‑to‑end
• Producing polished agendas, packs, presentations, reports and briefing documents
• Ensuring leaders are fully prepared for key meetings and decisions
• Organising UK and international travel with detailed itineraries
• Managing sensitive and confidential information with discretion and professionalism
• Supporting the planning and delivery of senior events and leadership meetings
• Line managing the Office Manager/Reception function and setting front‑of‑house standards
• Overseeing office and facilities operations to keep the workplace running smoothly
• Arranging reception cover and supporting meeting logistics when required
• Acting as a central coordination hub between leadership, teams and external partners

• Has strong experience supporting C‑suite and/or senior leadership
• Is confident, visible and engaged – not a wallflower
• Has gumption
  : proactive, resilient, comfortable operating at pace and speaking up when needed
• Is super polished and professional in a head‑office environment
• Is flexible and understands that occasional early starts or longer days come with senior roles
• Is highly organised, detail‑driven and calm under pressure
• Communicates confidently with senior stakeholders
• Is discreet and trusted with sensitive information
• Is strong with documents, packs and presentations
• Takes pride in being a reliable, high‑performing, senior EA

🔥 If you’re the kind of EA who wants to operate at C‑suite and senior leadership level, be genuinely trusted, and play a central role in how the business runs
, this is a brilliant opportunity.
