Executive Assistant to the CEO 80 to 100%

The role provides close, day?to?day support to the Chief Executive Officer, ensuring that priorities are clear, time is used effectively and actions move forward. This includes overseeing scheduling and meetings, preparing concise and useful background materials, coordinating travel arrangements, and maintaining visibility on commitments and next steps. The position requires the ability to exercise sound judgment, manage sensitive information discreetly and act as an effective first point of review for incoming requests.

The Executive Assistant also supports the organisation's governance and external relationships by ensuring Board and committee meetings run smoothly from preparation through follow?up. This includes coordinating materials, documenting outcomes, monitoring decisions and deadlines, and supporting ongoing interaction with institutional and financial partners in a reliable, professional manner.

The position calls for someone comfortable working independently, staying organised under pressure and maintaining accuracy and reliability in a fast?paced environment.
