We are working with an insurance business that has traded for around 10 years and achieved a lot in that time. The foundations are in place, the investment is secured, and the leadership team is focused on what comes next.
They are looking for an experienced Executive Assistant to work closely with the CEO as a trusted partner. This is a central role where your experience, judgment, and initiative will be noticed, and where you can make a real impact on how the business grows.
Why this role matters:
* Work side by side with the CEO and act as their right hand
* Shape the CEO’s office and influence how things get done
* Support board meetings, investor updates, and senior leadership activity
* Get involved in projects and initiatives that stretch across the business
* Run the role with autonomy and improve ways of working
* Join a business that has achieved a lot over 10 years and is now entering a fast-growth phase
This isn’t a traditional EA role. Your corporate or regulated environment experience will be valuable here, and your input will directly influence the way the business operates.
What you’ll be doing:
* Manage the CEO’s diary, priorities, and communications
* Coordinate with internal and external stakeholders at all levels
* Prepare for board meetings, investor updates, and senior leadership sessions
* Get involved in projects and initiatives that affect the business as a whole
* Identify opportunities to make processes more efficient and effective
* Work with discretion, professionalism, and calm judgment at all times
Who we’re looking for:
* Experience as an Executive Assistant supporting senior leaders, ideally at board or executive level
* Background in insurance, financial services, or another regulated environment preferred
* Highly organised, calm under pressure, and able to make sound decisions quickly
* Comfortable in a fast-moving business that has already achieved a lot and is now scaling rapidly
* Able to work independently, take initiative, and influence how the office operates
* Motivated by long-term growth and a chance to build tenure
Location & Package:
* Based in the South West, with regular office presence expected
* London candidates welcome – full relocation package available
* Salary: £65,000–£85,000 plus bonus
* Benefits: personal development plan (with allowance), private healthcare, pension, international travel
* Long-term role in a business that invests in its people
Why this is a rare opportunity:
This is a chance to work at the centre of a business that’s proven itself and is now ready to grow faster. You won’t just be supporting the CEO, you’ll be involved in decisions, projects, and processes that shape the business.
The company has achieved significant milestones over 10 years and now has the backing and momentum to scale further. For the right person, this is a role where you can take responsibility, influence the business, and build a long-term career.
