Executive Assistant - Country Road Group

As Executive Assistant supporting of our Chief Officers, you'll be more than a trusted support partner — you'll be a key enabler of the Executive Leadership Team's success. Working closely with your executive, you'll help drive priorities, keep the business moving and ensure the right things happen at the right time.

Reporting to the Executive Operations Manager and working within a collaborative, team-based Exec Ops model, you'll seamlessly manage complex calendars, communications and day-to-day business activities while building strong relationships across the organisation.

You'll thrive in a fast-paced environment, using sound judgement, initiative and adaptability to anticipate needs, solve problems before they arise, and support your executive.

How You Will Contribute

• Partner closely with your executive, anticipating needs so they can stay focused on strategic priorities
• Manage a complex, high-volume calendar — prioritising against business needs, minimising conflicts and protecting time for what matters
• Prepare, review and refine executive presentations, reports and papers, including risk, governance and Board submissions
• Coordinate leadership meetings end to end: agendas, materials, logistics, minutes, actions and follow-through
• Support strategic initiatives, research and special projects — preparing briefing materials so your executive is well prepared
• Track key projects and deliverables across the portfolio, keeping deadlines and commitments visible
• Act as a key point of contact for internal and external stakeholders, screening and prioritising incoming requests and resolving or redirecting them
• Coordinate domestic and international travel, itineraries, expenses and credit card reconciliations
• Contribute actively to EA meetings and initiatives, working collaboratively with EAs across the business and providing backup support as needed
• Handle highly confidential information — supplier commercials, governance matters and organisational change — with complete discretion
• Support function-wide engagement activities including huddles, offsites and team events, delivered within budget

What You Will Bring

• Proven experience as an Executive Assistant supporting C-suite or ELT executives in a fast-paced, complex organisation
• Strong background in complex calendar and travel management, executive-level communication and meeting coordination
• Confident with systems and digital tools, and quick to adopt new ways of working

• Advanced Microsoft 365 skills - Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Teams, SharePoint and OneDrive
• Exceptional organisational skills, attention to detail, time management and problem solving
• The ability to engage, influence and build trust with senior leaders and across diverse stakeholder groups
• Adaptability and resilience - managing competing priorities and changing deadlines without losing accuracy
• Complete integrity in managing confidential information
• A genuine partnership mentality, and a collaborative approach to working as part of a function rather than in isolation
