About The Role
We are hiring an Executive Assistant to work directly with the CEO across a growing group of businesses.
This is a trusted support role for someone who enjoys being close to decision-making, helping organise priorities, and making sure important actions are followed through properly.
You will work closely with the CEO to bring structure, clarity, and momentum to day-to-day priorities. This includes organising tasks, tracking follow-ups, coordinating communication, preparing information, and helping ensure key projects continue moving forward.
This goes beyond basic admin support, but it is also not a role where you are expected to own multiple departments. Your main focus is to support the CEO effectively, help create order around competing priorities, and act as a reliable right hand as the businesses continue to grow.
The role would suit someone who has already worked as an Executive Assistant, Personal Assistant, founder support, senior admin, operations support, or in a closely related role.
About The CEO
You will be working directly with the founder across businesses connected to recruitment, content, and new ventures.
This is a strong opportunity to work closely with a CEO who is actively building and growing businesses. You will gain exposure to business decisions, planning, execution, communication, and how ideas are turned into action.
The CEO is looking for someone who can be trusted to stay organised, follow through, manage details, and help keep priorities moving. This role would suit someone who wants to learn directly from a founder-led environment and develop into a stronger executive support or business support professional over time.
What You'll Be Focused On
Your main focus will be to help the CEO stay organised, prepared, and supported.
You will help create structure around priorities, make sure actions are tracked, and ensure follow-ups are not missed. The role requires initiative, discretion, good judgement, and strong communication.
This is a role for someone who can think ahead, take ownership of details, and bring calm organisation to a fast-moving environment.
What You'll Be Doing
- Supporting the CEO with daily priorities, tasks, and follow-ups
- Organising actions, deadlines, notes, and key information clearly
- Helping turn ideas and discussions into clear next steps
- Tracking tasks and making sure agreed actions are followed through
- Managing communication and admin support where required
- Preparing information, summaries, and updates for the CEO
- Supporting calendar/diary, scheduling, coordination, and planning where needed
- Assisting with content, media, and personal brand coordination
- Helping organise business growth ideas before they are passed to the wider team
- Coordinating with team members to keep priorities moving
- Identifying simple ways to improve organisation, communication, and follow-up
- Handling sensitive information with professionalism and discretion
What We Offer
- Direct exposure to the CEO and founder
- A trusted role with real responsibility and visibility
- Experience across growing businesses, including recruitment, content, and new ventures
- Opportunity to learn how business priorities are planned, organised, and executed
- A role where initiative, judgement, and follow-through are valued
- Opportunity to grow into a more senior EA, business support, or operations-focused role over time
- Remote working with an international team
