Executive Assistant

Location: Southampton / Hybrid

Salary: Up to £48,000 per annum (Depending on Experience)

Contract: Permanent, Full-Time

About the Opportunity

An exceptional opportunity has arisen for a high-calibre Executive Assistant to join a leading, award winning corporate organisation.

This is not a traditional 1:1 support role. Our client operates a sophisticated, agile support model where the Executive Support team manages incoming requests and tasks directly from various senior leadership and UK Executive Team members. This is a fast-paced, high-visibility position perfect for an Executive Assistant who thrives on variety, collaboration, and working within a modern, forward-thinking corporate environment.

If you want to step away from traditional support structures and work as part of a highly dynamic, collaborative team, this role offers a fantastic platform to showcase your skills and gain valuable exposure to high-level corporate strategy.

Key Responsibilities

* Agile Executive Support: Respond to and manage incoming administrative requests from multiple senior executives, ensuring high-priority tasks are addressed efficiently.

* Strategic Diary Management: Proactively manage complex calendars, making strategic decisions on meeting precedence and liaising closely with other Executive Support team members.

* High-Level Documentation: Construct and produce detailed meeting agendas, briefing papers, and professional PowerPoint presentations for key strategy meetings.

* Communication Management: Screen and manage verbal and written communications for executive members, acting as a professional and effective gatekeeper.

* Logistics & Events: Coordinate complex travel, accommodation, and venue bookings, while providing coordination support for corporate roadshows and engagement events.

* Operational Administration: Support budget tracking, process executive expense claims, and manage the administrative onboarding and offboarding processes for team members.

What We Are Looking For

We are seeking a proactive, self-motivated professional who remains calm under pressure and uses their initiative to solve problems before they escalate. To be successful in this role, you will need:

* Proven Experience: Significant experience working at Senior Management or Personal Assistant level, ideally within a rapidly changing, fast-paced corporate environment.

* Technical Proficiency: Advanced skills in Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, Excel, and Outlook. Experience using modern AI tools (such as Copilot) to drive daily administrative efficiencies is highly desirable.

* Communication Excellence: Exceptional verbal and written communication skills with the ability to adapt your tone for various senior and executive audiences.

* Organisational Mastery: Outstanding ability to handle multiple conflicting priorities and manage the expectations of senior stakeholders.

* Absolute Discretion: A proven track record of handling highly business-sensitive and confidential information with absolute discretion.

Salary, Benefits & Culture

This organisation has been officially recognised as a leading UK employer, offering an inclusive, collaborative, and highly supportive environment where your development and support skills are fully valued. Alongside a highly competitive salary, you will receive a comprehensive and flexible rewards package:

* Flexible & Hybrid Working: Modern hybrid working options designed to support work-life balance, with flexibility around working hours and genuine part-time or job-share arrangements available.

* Generous Annual Leave: A highly competitive annual leave allowance with options to customise your holiday balance through buying and selling schemes.

* Health & Wellbeing: Comprehensive healthcare options, including dental plans, health cash plans, screening services, and dedicated mental health and wellness support.

* Financial Benefits: Highly competitive corporate pension plans, regular salary reviews, discretionary bonus schemes, and exclusive employee savings and loan initiatives.

* Family-Friendly Policies: Enhanced paid parental and partner leave schemes, alongside structured return-to-work programmes to support family life.

* Perks & Lifestyle: Tech saving schemes, cycle-to-work programs, vehicle scheme options, and a variety of corporate lifestyle discounts and social club events.
