Executive Assistant / Personal Assistant
Reason for Reporting
Our client is looking for a sharp, intuitive, and highly capable right-hand to the CEO, someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment, anticipates needs before they arise, and plays a key role in keeping both people and priorities aligned.
If you enjoy being at the centre of decision-making, working closely with leadership, and bringing structure to a dynamic business — this could be the opportunity you’ve been waiting for.
What this role entails:
You will operate as a true extension of the CEO, managing the day-to-day flow while staying one step ahead.
• Seamlessly manage a complex calendar, meetings, and travel
• Prepare high-quality reports, presentations, and briefing packs
• Act as a trusted gatekeeper — filtering communication and priorities
• Coordinate meetings at executive and board level (with full follow-through)
• Keep projects, deadlines, and strategic initiatives on track
• Build strong relationships across teams, clients, and stakeholders
• Handle sensitive information with the utmost professionalism
What sets you apart:
You are not just organised, you are exceptional at what you do.
• Naturally proactive — you anticipate rather than react
• Calm under pressure, with the ability to juggle competing priorities
• Highly professional, with strong emotional intelligence
• Detail-driven, without losing sight of the bigger picture
• Confident communicator who can engage at executive level
• Tech-savvy, with strong MS Office / Google Workspace skills
Your Background
• 5+ years’ experience supporting senior executives (CEO-level exposure ideal)
• Relevant tertiary qualification (advantageous)
• Experience in project coordination or managing multiple priorities
