Executive Assistant to CEO (Hybrid – Business & Personal Support)
Location: Quorn, Leicestershire (Hybrid – 1–2 days per week with CEO, remote otherwise)
Salary: £40,000 per year
Contract: Full-time, permanent
About the Role
We are seeking a highly organised and discreet Executive Assistant to provide seamless support to a busy CEO across both business and personal life. This hybrid role combines remote working with 1–2 days per week alongside the CEO, ensuring that their time and energy are focused where they are most valuable.
This is not a standard 9–5 role. While the core working hours are Monday to Friday, the CEO requires an EA who can be flexible and responsive outside of typical office hours. This may include early mornings, evenings, and weekends.
You will act as a trusted right hand, overseeing diary management, finance administration, team coordination and family scheduling, while ensuring smooth communication across business and personal matters.

* Liaise with accountants for VAT returns and personal tax.
Household & Assets

* Handle boat and property rentals (Airbnb and lettings).
Family & Childcare Support

* Maintain and update the family app and the drivers outlook calendar.
* Book and schedule drivers for family travel.
* Proactively source and organise gifts
Other Duties
* Handle post and filing.
* Run personal errands.
* Support with confidential matters, personal admin, and any ad hoc tasks the CEO requires help with.
About You
* Proven experience as an EA with both business and lifestyle support.
* Highly organised, excellent attention to detail, proactive and calm under pressure.
* Financially literate, confident with payments and raising invoices.
* Strong communicator, able to liaise with professionals and household staff.
* Discreet, trustworthy, and able to adapt to an ever-changing schedule.
* Flexible, able to anticipate needs and thrive in a varied role.
What We Offer
