About the Role

We’re seeking a highly organised, proactive Executive Assistant to support senior leadership within a fast-paced, high-growth business.

You will be responsible for managing calendars, coordinating meetings, handling communications, and supporting project execution, while also identifying opportunities to improve processes and reduce inefficiencies.

This role requires someone who can operate with a high level of ownership, anticipate needs before they arise, and maintain strong attention to detail across multiple moving priorities. You’ll work closely with leadership and cross-functional teams, ensuring alignment, organisation, and smooth execution across the business.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives in fast-paced environments, enjoys bringing structure to complexity, and takes full responsibility for outcomes.

Manage and optimise executive calendars, scheduling meetings across multiple time zones
