- Prepare and review executive communications, presentations, reports, and confidential documents
- Serve as a key liaison between the CEO and internal/external stakeholders, including board members and high-profile clients
- Act as a true gatekeeper — triaging communications, filtering distractions, and ensuring priorities are clearly managed
- Attend meetings, capture minutes, track action items, and drive follow-ups to completion
- Coordinate across departments to align on strategic priorities and business-critical initiatives
- Support personal matters including property, private travel, and lifestyle-related arrangements
- Anticipate needs before they arise and create proactive solutions to potential roadblocks
- Build trusted relationships across the organisation to facilitate smooth information flow and execution
- Maintain the highest standards of professionalism, confidentiality, and discretion
What You Bring:
- Minimum 3 years’ experience supporting C-suite executives or founders in the UK and UAE
- Proactive, adaptable, and capable of managing shifting priorities with calm efficiency
- Polished verbal and written communication skills with excellent interpersonal presence
- Strong organisational and project coordination abilities
- Fluent in English; additional languages are a plus (bilingual or trilingual preferred)
- Exceptional attention to detail and a solutions-oriented mindset
- High emotional intelligence, with the maturity to handle sensitive matters and make sound decisions
- Willingness to work flexible hours and travel internationally as required
This is more than an Executive Assistant role — it’s a high-trust partnership at the highest level of the organisation. If you’re a confident operator with impeccable judgment, presence, and a passion for excellence, we’d love to hear from you.
