We're looking for an exceptional Executive Assistant to support the Chair / CEO of a leading global talent business.
This is not a traditional EA role. We're looking for someone who is proactive, commercially minded and always one step ahead. You'll be a true right-hand partner, helping to manage priorities, build relationships and ensure everything runs seamlessly behind the scenes.
The ideal candidate will have experience supporting senior leaders within media, entertainment, talent, broadcast, agency or similarly relationship-driven industries. You'll be comfortable working with high-profile clients and stakeholders, possess exceptional emotional intelligence, and have the confidence to operate autonomously while maintaining absolute discretion.
Highly organised, resourceful and solutions-focused, you'll thrive in a fast-paced environment, anticipating needs before they arise and ensuring every interaction is professional, well prepared and impactful.
The Role
As Executive Assistant, you'll provide high-level support across diary management, stakeholder engagement, meeting preparation, travel coordination and executive operations.
You'll play a critical role in helping the Chair / CEO operate effectively, ensuring priorities are managed seamlessly and every interaction is professional, well-prepared and impactful.
What You'll Do
Executive & Diary Management
- Manage a highly complex and ever-changing diary, coordinating 30-40+ meetings per week
- Prioritise competing demands and proactively manage scheduling challenges
- Coordinate meetings across multiple stakeholders, locations and time zones
- Act as a trusted gatekeeper, ensuring time is spent on the highest priorities
