About Us
\nMy client are a globally recognised business operating across borders and time zones, ensuring critical goods and services move seamlessly through international supply chains. With operations spanning key markets and a growth agenda driven by innovation, partnerships, and performance, we’re at an exciting point in our journey.

The CEO leads from the front — energetic, sharp, and focused on the big picture. To support this, we’re hiring a top-tier Executive Assistant to be their operational and strategic partner.

The Role
\nThis is a high-impact EA position for someone who thrives in fast-moving, international environments. You’ll manage the CEO’s time, relationships, and agenda with precision, ensuring nothing gets dropped — and everything moves forward.

\n Manage international travel, meetings, and logistics — across multiple time zones, partners, and senior stakeholders.
\n Prepare clear, high-level briefing materials, agendas, and Board documents.
\n Act as a liaison across internal and external networks — from investors and partners to the senior leadership team.
\n️ Lead on projects ranging from leadership offsites to confidential initiatives.
\n Always be two steps ahead — problem-solving proactively and managing complexity with poise. About You
