This is a high-impact Executive Assistant role and a trusted business partnership to a member of the Haleon Executive Team (HET). The role enables the executive to focus on the highest-value priorities by improving decision-making, information flow, planning, and the effective operation of the executive office.

Working closely with the executive’s Leadership Team, functional colleagues, other Executive Assistants and key external stakeholders, you will anticipate needs, resolve complexity and ensure that priorities, meetings, travel, communications and commitments are managed with pace, discretion and sound judgement.

• Act as a trusted partner and first point of contact for the HET member, representing them professionally with internal and external stakeholders.
• Build a strong understanding of Haleon’s strategy, the function’s priorities and the executive’s business cycle, using this context to plan ahead and focus time on the matters that create most value.
• Run the day-to-day executive office proactively, identifying upcoming requirements, dependencies and risks before they become issues.
• Exercise sound judgement when handling time-sensitive, confidential or commercially sensitive information, escalating appropriately and maintaining the highest standards of integrity.
• Partner with the Leadership Team to coordinate priorities, decisions, deliverables and cross-functional activity, helping the function operate as one team.
• Provide thoughtful challenge and recommend better ways of working where this will improve effectiveness, clarity or pace.

• Own a complex and fast-moving diary, prioritising meetings according to importance, business value, urgency and required decision outcomes.
• Anticipate conflicts and pressure points, offering solutions rather than simply identifying problems, and ensuring the right stakeholders are included at the right time.
• Manage internal and external scheduling across senior stakeholders, international time zones, and changing business priorities.
• Triage the executive’s inbox and correspondence where required, highlighting priority items, drafting responses, and ensuring actions are addressed promptly.
• Maintain appropriate forward planning so that preparation time, travel, key governance dates and critical business milestones are protected.

• Plan and coordinate Leadership Team meetings, functional forums, town halls, off-sites and other key events, including , agenda, attendees, pre-reads, speakers and logistics.
• Coordinate visitors, catering, and other requirements in line with Haleon policies.
• Work with Communications, HR and other teams to coordinate accurate, timely communications on behalf of the executive.
