Looking for a Corporate Executive Assistant to support the CEO and Founder of a highly successful international business operating within the energy and infrastructure sector.

This is a highly senior Executive Assistant position supporting an entrepreneurial CEO whose diary is fast-moving, commercially driven and constantly evolving. The role is entirely business focused and will suit someone who enjoys operating at pace, working independently and becoming a trusted member of a small executive team.

The CEO already has personal support in place, allowing this role to focus solely on business operations, strategic priorities and executive coordination.

The Role

Key responsibilities include:

• Managing a complex and constantly changing business diary.
• Coordinating UK and international travel.
• Preparing meeting agendas, briefing documents and presentations.
• Tracking multiple projects and ensuring actions are followed through.
• Liaising with senior stakeholders, advisers and external partners.
• Managing business correspondence and prioritising communications.
• Supporting board and executive meetings where required.
• Monitoring deadlines, commitments and key deliverables.
• Working closely with the CEO’s Personal Assistant to ensure seamless coordination across business and personal commitments.
• Handling confidential information with absolute discretion.

About You

We’re looking for someone who is naturally organised, commercially aware and enjoys working in a fast-paced environment.

You’ll ideally have:

• Significant experience supporting a CEO, Founder or Executive Chairman.
• Ideally educated to degree level (Bachelor’s degree or equivalent).
• Strong diary and international travel management experience.
• The ability to manage multiple priorities without losing attention to detail.
• Excellent communication skills and confidence dealing with senior stakeholders.
• A proactive approach and the ability to anticipate what needs doing.
• Good judgement and the confidence to make decisions independently.
• High levels of discretion, professionalism and integrity.

This role would suit someone who is quick to understand priorities, enjoys solving problems and is comfortable working with an entrepreneurial leader whose schedule changes frequently.

The CEO is known for being approachable, loyal, fair and highly driven. He values people who take ownership, think ahead and become a genuine extension of his office.

What’s on Offer

• Competitive salary
• Exceptional benefits package
• Discretionary annual bonus
• Hybrid working (3 days in the office)
• Flexibility when business needs require it
• Occasional travel
• A varied role with exposure to senior business leaders, investors and strategic projects
• The opportunity to work closely with a respected CEO in a growing international business

Due to the seniority and confidential nature of this appointment, all applications will be handled with the utmost discretion. This is a highly influential Executive Assistant role, and the remuneration package reflects the level of responsibility and expectation. Whilst the role offers hybrid working, a degree of flexibility will be required to support the demands of the CEO and the business.
