24 / 7, 1 : 1 EA role to Founder & CEO of global creative business

Overview

We are looking for a skilled EA at the top of their game to dive into fast paced, high intensity role supporting the founder & CEO of an incredible global, creative business. Whilst already a well-established company and brand, they are continuing to scale rapidly and so the principal’s diary, schedule and inboxes are ever-changing, high-volume pieces that need an experienced hand to take ownership of so they can be streamlined to make him run more efficiently and effectively. The inboxes will need constant prioritising, filtering and flagging as well as responses on his behalf. He is a fair, reasonable and inspiring individual but running a global business comes with intense pressure and he is very short of time, so he needs an EA who sees the bigger picture and will recognise the need for short, concise, well considered communication and who will understand the importance of finessing the more menial and granular level day to day tasks that have a real knock on impact, such as pre-empting his transitions between meetings / VCs / trips / travel etc. Whilst this role is predominantly business focused, and there is a private family PA, some personal PA tasks will still be required. However you will have a junior PA to support you and hand over tasks to, and there is a great team you are working alongside in the CEOs office, including the EA to the Co-CEO and her junior as well as the wonderful Chief of Staff. On top of that there is a lovely wider team in the head office and the company has a great culture, spearheaded by the principal, and they are based in really cool and beautiful offices. This role needs a top-notch business EA who really thrives in being a dedicated right hand to their principal. This is a 24 / 7 role and as his EA, you will need to be available out of hours should the principal need to contact you, whether it be regarding a travel issue or because he is in a different time zone. The position is office based and early morning starts and evening finishes, mirroring the principal’s hours, are the norm. As his EA you will be exposed to an incredibly interesting business and connected to very influential people globally. Excellent oral and verbal communication skills are key, as is 5 yrs + PA experience, and experience supporting at CEO or Founder level is a must.

Please note due to the high volume of applications we receive for each role we post; we are only able to respond to successful applicants.
