Executive Assistant Walsall – Office Based Permanent, Full-Time £35,000 - £40,000
Are you an experienced Executive Assistant who knows how to bring structure, organisation and calm to a busy senior leadership team?
We are recruiting for an established and growing business near Walsall, looking for a confident and highly organised Executive Assistant to provide proactive support to senior members of the business.
This is a fast-paced, friendly environment where priorities can change quickly. You'll need to think ahead, manage competing demands, chase actions and confidently challenge when needed. We're looking for someone who stays calm under pressure, gets things actioned and naturally brings structure and organisation to the people around them.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
