The Opportunity
A rare opportunity to join a high-growth, forward-thinking SME at a pivotal stage in its journey. This business is led by an impressive, entrepreneurial CEO and a dynamic senior leadership team who are driving ambitious expansion plans.

* Full management of a complex and ever-changing CEO diary
* Coordinating international travel and detailed itineraries across multiple time zones
* Preparing for and organising board and senior leadership meetings
* Producing high-quality reports, documents, and presentations
* Acting as a key liaison between the CEO, Directors, and internal/external stakeholders
* Managing confidential and sensitive information with absolute discretion
* Bringing structure, organisation, and efficiency to a fast-moving environment
About You
* Proven experience supporting senior executives within a fast-paced environment (SME experience advantageous)
* Professional, and confident in dealing with senior stakeholders
* Exceptional organisational skills with strong attention to detail
* Advanced Microsoft Office skills (Word, Excel, PowerPoint)
* Proactive, solutions-focused, and able to operate with autonomy
