Executive Assistant at The Signet Collection
Supporting our Managing Partner and his family/business interests, across The Signet Collection and Ross & Ross.
Do you colour-code your calendar... for fun?
Can you spot a typo from across the room? Do you secretly enjoy turning chaos into calm?
If so, keep reading.
At The Signet Collection, we don't do ordinary hotels. We create beautiful places full of character, personality, and unforgettable experiences. Behind every one of those experiences is an incredibly talented team—and now we're looking for someone equally special to become the right hand (and occasionally the left hand, diary, therapist, organiser, and miracle worker), whilst also supporting Ross & Ross in their mission to manage the construction of new traditional country houses and restoration of heritage properties.
This isn't just another Executive Assistant role.
Reporting to the Managing Partner and the other half and founder of Ross & Ross, you'll be the calm in the storm, the keeper of the calendar, the guardian of confidentiality, and the person who somehow knows what's happening before everyone else does.
Where is this role?
We currently have 4 properties (with more coming!) and a central office near Newbury (Newbury RG20 8NJ).
This role is based out of our central office, 5 days a week, so the role would suit someone local to the Newbury area. There may be occasional travel required where support is needed, but you will be one of the mainstays of our support office.
And yes, there is free parking available on site at the office!
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
A typical week might include...
- Untangling a diary that resembles a game of Tetris
- Organising travel plans before anyone has even realised they need them.
- Preparing board papers, presentations, and reports that make everyone look brilliant.
- Keeping on top of emails, priorities, and deadlines with ninja-like efficiency.
- Helping organise company events that people actually look forward to attending.
- Building fantastic relationships with colleagues, suppliers, and guests alike.
- Occasionally reminding your Managing Partner to eat lunch!
You'll become the trusted person people turn to because they know if anyone can sort it... you can.
Who are we looking for?
You'll be tech-savvy, with a love for administration and process... and of course people!
- You have bags of experience in an admin role using multiple digital platforms
- Confidence in organising others, and managing up, down, and side to side!
- A collaborative spirit — you play well with others.
- Organisation skills sharper than a freshly polished steak knife.
- Agile and adaptable - we are growing and we move quickly as a business - so you will be happy working at pace and will come with us on our journey as a growing hospitality business.
- You are naturally discreet and completely trustworthy, write beautifully, and communicate brilliantly.
- You can juggle ten things without dropping the important one.
- You have a brilliant sense of humour (essential) and you don't panic when plans change—because they inevitably will!
You'll probably already have experience supporting senior leaders, but more important than your CV is your attitude.
