We are looking for an ambitious and highly organised Executive Assistant to join a busy Executive Operations team and play an important role in supporting a senior executive within a global organisation.

This is an opportunity for someone who has built a solid foundation in PA, EA, Team Assistant, or business support, and is now ready to take the next step. You will gain exposure to a high-profile executive environment, work alongside experienced colleagues and receive the guidance and mentoring needed to develop your career.

Key details:

Working closely with the Head of Executive Operations, helping to ensure the smooth running of a senior executive office. Your responsibilities will include:

  • Managing a busy and complex diary, scheduling meetings, resolving clashes and keeping priorities on track.
  • Monitoring incoming correspondence, drafting straightforward responses and escalating matters when appropriate.
  • Coordinating UK and international travel, accommodation, itineraries and expenses.
  • Supporting the preparation and collation of executive and board materials.
  • Helping organise meetings, offsites and events, coordinating venues, logistics, catering and attendees.
  • Attending meetings when required, taking notes, capturing actions and following up on agreed activity.
  • Maintaining accurate records, contacts, distribution lists and filing.
  • Handling confidential information with discretion, professionalism, and good judgement.
  • Building strong relationships with colleagues and external contacts and representing the executive office professionally.
  • Supporting the wider Executive Operations and EA teams with occasional cover and project-based work.

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.

Most importantly, we’re looking for someone with the potential and attitude to grow. You may not have done everything before, what matters is that you’re organised, curious, dependable, and ready for your next challenge.

Why this role?

This isn’t simply another EA position. It’s an opportunity to step into a high-profile executive environment, gain valuable exposure and learn from experienced professionals around you. You will be joining a friendly, agile and fast-growing organisation where continuous improvement is part of the culture. You’ll have the opportunity to make an impact from day one while developing the skills and experience that can shape your longer-term career.

The role is based in Crewe, with core hours of Monday to Friday, 8.30am–5.00pm.

Given the nature of the executive office, there will occasionally be a requirement to provide support outside these hours, so a degree of flexibility is important.

If you’re ready to move beyond traditional administration and take your next step into high-level executive support, we would love to hear from you.
