  • Support senior leaders within a globally recognised investment firm.
  • High level of autonomy, trust and responsibility.
  • Work in a fast-paced, high-performance environment | No two days are the same.

The Opportunity

Join a highly regarded global investment firm as an Executive Assistant supporting a Managing Director and Director within a high-performing Sydney team. This is a fast-paced, high-intensity EA role where complex calendar management is at the heart of the position. Supporting senior executives alongside a broader team of 3-4 VPs and Associates, you will be managing diaries that are constantly changing, shifting priorities and last-minute requests.

You will thrive in this environment if you are highly responsive, calm under pressure and naturally one step ahead. This is not a role for someone who needs every day to look the same.

The Responsibility

  • Manage complex and constantly changing calendars
  • Navigate last-minute changes, competing priorities and diary conflicts with confidence
  • Work closely with VPs and Associates to coordinate meetings and team requirements
  • Coordinate domestic and international travel, including changes and detailed itineraries
  • Anticipate priorities and proactively manage your executives' time
  • Coordinate internal and external meetings with senior stakeholders
  • Prepare executives for meetings and ensure all logistics are organised
  • Manage correspondence, follow-ups and general administrative requirements
  • Act as a trusted and highly discreet point of support to your executives.

The Expertise

  • Proven EA experience supporting senior executives in a fast-paced environment
  • Exceptional calendar management skills and confidence managing constantly shifting diaries
  • Highly organised, proactive and able to reprioritise quickly
  • Calm, solutions-focused and comfortable working with urgency
  • Strong communication and stakeholder management skills
  • Excellent attention to detail and sound judgement
  • Discreet and professional, with the ability to manage confidential information
  • Naturally responsive and willing to go the extra mile when required
  • While there is no expectation to work outside standard hours, being comfortable with occasional out-of-hours responsiveness is advantageous
