Overview
This is not a traditional EA role. If you’re looking for a quiet diary-management job, this isn’t it. We’re looking for a sharp, proactive, commercially aware Executive Assistant to support a Finance Director who operates across finance, IT, operations, and wider business strategy.
You’ll be a right-hand partner, not just an administrator.
What You’ll Actually Be Doing
* Managing a constantly shifting diary and priorities
* Acting as a sounding board on business decisions
* Supporting with reporting, admin, and statutory tasks
* Preparing documents that need to be right first time
* Travelling to sites regularly to understand how the business really works
* Getting involved in operational and commercial discussions
* Spotting problems before they become problems
* Handling highly confidential information—discretion is non-negotiable
What This Role Demands
* You use initiative—you don’t wait to be told
* You have commercial awareness
* You can handle pressure
* You’re comfortable being around senior leadership and speaking up
* You’re happy to travel and get stuck into the reality of the business
What We’re Looking For
* Proven EA/PA experience at senior level
* Ideally supported a Finance Director or worked in a finance-led environment
* Strong communication skills—you can adapt your style and get your point across clearly
* Highly organised, detail-focused, and reliable
* Comfortable dealing with sensitive and confidential information
This Role Is Not For You If
* You need constant direction or hand-holding
* You’ve only worked in highly structured corporate environments doing one narrow task
* You’re not comfortable with change, pressure, or unpredictability
* You’re unwilling to travel or engage with the wider business
Why This Role
* Real exposure to how a business operates—not just a desk job
* Work directly with senior leadership
* Broad, varied role where you’ll learn fast and have impact
* No two days are the same
If you’re switched on, proactive, and want a role where you’ll genuinely make a difference—apply now.
