- Organise meetings of all kinds, either in person or virtual, and complete with meals, gifts, and anything else as needed.
- Be a go-to connection for Employees, Senior Execs, and External Stakeholders.
- Welcome new hires with a smooth onboarding experience.
- Collaborate with the likes of IT, HR, Marketing, Finance, and Legal teams to help keep everything running like clockwork.
- Plan and pull off social events and special projects that bring the team together and keep the energy high!
What You’ll Bring:
- Proven experience as an EA/PA, with experience and the enthusiasm to work in a corporate environment.
- The willingness to build strong relationships and become a go-to, trusted teammate everyone loves working with.
- Strong experience working with the MS Suite (particularly Outlook). Bonus points if you have experience working with Salesforce and Concur too!
- A self-starter attitude with a team-player spirit, always ready to roll up your sleeves and help where needed.
- A positive vibe, a great sense of humour, and a passion for creating a supportive team culture.
