Comprehensive diary and inbox management
Acting as a trusted gatekeeper and brand ambassador
Proactively identifying issues and resolving them before they arise
Coordinating priorities to ensure the CEO’s time is spent effectively
Supporting the wider business where needed in a fast-moving environment
Light office management duties, including replenishing refreshments and maintaining an organised, aesthetically pleasing office space

You will:
Be proactive rather than reactive, thinking one step ahead at all times
Take pride in high standards and attention to detail
Be confident operating in an ambitious, scaling business
Enjoy contributing ideas, including planning engaging internal employee events at key points throughout the year
Be trusted to work autonomously once embedded in the role, without needing constant direction
