About the Role:
We are looking for a highly organized, commercially astute Executive Assistant to support the business owner of a dynamic and growing group of companies. This is an exciting new role due to business growth, where you will become the right-hand person to the owner, ensuring the smooth running of operations across four companies.

This role requires someone with excellent communication skills, a natural problem-solver who can juggle multiple tasks, and ensure critical deadlines are met.
You will be responsible for a variety of tasks, including executive-level reporting, managing complex Excel functions (VLOOKUP, pivot tables, etc.), overseeing HR matters with the support of an outsourced HR consultancy, and coordinating corporate and team hospitality events.
Key Responsibilities:
· Serve as the primary point of contact for the business owner, ensuring smooth communication and operations across multiple companies.
· Provide high-level administrative support, including diary management, travel arrangements, meeting coordination, and project management.
· Liaise with clients, including CEOs and other senior leaders, ensuring the business owner’s key relationships are managed effectively.
· Handle advanced Excel tasks including data analysis, VLOOKUPs, pivot tables, and financial reporting.
· Coordinate corporate and team events, including hospitality and off-site functions.
· Oversee day-to-day HR matters with the support of an external HR consultancy.
· Manage office administration and assist in office management tasks.
· Be commercially aware, able to anticipate needs, and contribute to business growth.
· Ensure key deadlines and timescales are met, driving the team forward.
· Use systems including Salesforce, SAP, and ZenDesk for customer management and internal operations.
Requirements:
· Proven experience as a Personal or Executive Assistant, ideally within a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment.
· Commercially astute with strong business acumen.
· Advanced Excel skills, including VLOOKUPs and pivot tables.
· Experience using systems such as Salesforce, SAP, and ZenDesk.
· Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, able to liaise with senior executives and stakeholders.
· Highly organized with the ability to multitask and prioritize effectively.
· A proactive problem-solver with a can-do attitude.
· Strong attention to detail and ability to manage multiple projects at once.
· Full driving license (due to occasional site visits).
· Experience with HR processes is a plus, with the support of an external HR consultancy.
This is a fantastic opportunity to join a growing business with ambitious plans for the future. In addition to a competitive salary, you will have access to on-site gym facilities, an all-inclusive kitchen, and a discretionary annual bonus based on performance. You'll be joining a fast-paced, supportive team and have the opportunity to play a pivotal role in the success of the business.
