• Build strong working relationships across your group, the wider business, and the admin community

• Raise and track purchase orders, manage contracts, and support payment processes where relevant

• Organise and support leadership events, meetings, workshops, and ensure timely distribution of materials

• Collaborate with EAs to support wider team events (e.g. All Hands, AMAs, offsites, roadshows, Board & Committee Meetings, AGM)

• Support onboarding for new starters

• Liaise between the EGM team and wider business to coordinate diaries, events, and resources

• Champion global ways of working and effective team communication

 

What you'll bring with you

 

• Proven experience supporting senior leaders in a fast-paced, global environment, with strong judgement and discretion

• Highly organised, proactive, and detail-focused, with the ability to manage competing priorities and work independently

• Strong relationship builder with excellent communication skills and confidence working across all levels and time zones

• Comfortable working behind the scenes to support others, anticipate needs, and ensure seamless delivery

• A flexible, can-do attitude with a continuous improvement mindset and willingness to pitch in wherever needed
