Apply for the Executive Assistant to the CEO
Location: Leeds
Job Description:

Our client is a growing, privately owned financial services organisation seeking to appoint an accomplished Executive Assistant to support its CEO.

This is a broad and trusted role at the heart of a small, entrepreneurial business. The successful individual will provide high-quality executive support to the CEO while also helping to keep the wider organisation connected, organised and operating effectively.

The role will include:

  • Managing a complex and changing diary, balancing internal priorities, client meetings and external commitments
  • Coordinating UK and international travel, including detailed itineraries
  • Preparing for Board and senior management meetings, including compiling and circulating papers
  • Producing high-quality presentations, reports and correspondence
  • Organising internal and external events, client dinners and business functions
  • Acting as a professional and trusted point of contact for clients, including high-net-worth individuals
  • Liaising confidently with senior colleagues, advisers and other external contacts
  • Monitoring actions and ensuring that commitments are followed through
  • Providing broader organisational support as the business continues to grow

We are looking for someone who is highly organised, proactive and comfortable working in a fast-moving environment. You will be polished and credible when dealing with senior and high-net-worth individuals, while remaining approachable and able to build trusted relationships across the organisation.

Exceptional discretion, sound judgement and attention to detail will be essential. You will anticipate what needs to be done, remain calm when priorities change and take ownership without needing close direction.

Previous experience supporting a CEO, founder, principal or other senior executive would be valuable. Experience within financial services, professional services, investment, private wealth, a family office or another high-touch client environment may be helpful, but is not essential.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys being at the centre of a business and takes satisfaction from making things happen.
