A fast‑paced, FTSE listed engineering company is looking for an exceptional Executive Assistant to support the CEO. This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced EA who has worked at Board or ExCo level within a global organisation.  The scope of this role goes well beyond diary management — ideal for someone smart, organised and confident operating with autonomy.

You’ll manage the CEO’s time, priorities and inbox, coordinate complex international travel, act as a key point of contact for senior stakeholders, and take ownership of practical projects such as leadership events. You’ll also oversee the smooth running of a small executive office, including supplier liaison, office coordination and occasional light‑touch support to the wider leadership team.

We’re looking for an experienced EA who is proactive, calm under pressure and able to anticipate needs before they arise. You’ll be personable, discreet, commercially aware and comfortable working at pace. Experience supporting at CEO or Board level — ideally within a complex international or fast‑moving environment — is highly beneficial.

If you’re a thoughtful, dedicated EA who enjoys responsibility and wants to play a central role in a growing organisation, and enjoys being the hub of the office and making things happen smoothly then  we’d love to hear from you. 

Thank you for your interest in the above position. Whilst we’d love to get back to everyone who applies to our roles, we are a small team so will only be in touch if your application is successful.
