Are you a proactive, emotionally intelligent professional who thrives in dynamic environments and enjoys working with senior leaders?

Our client is seeking an exceptional Executive Assistant to support the Chief Executive and Leadership Team.

This is not your typical EA role.

You'll be a trusted advisor, a strategic thinker, and a key member of the Senior Leadership Team.

You'll manage complex stakeholder relationships, anticipate needs, and ensure the CE's time is focused on delivering strong outcomes for Aotearoa.

Qualifications

A confident communicator with high EQ and strong interpersonal skills.

Proven senior EA experience with a strong relationship and stakeholder management focus working with senior executives.

Someone who's comfortable with calendar management, administrative support, minutes of meetings for SLT meetings and skilled in continuous improvement including the use of AI tools.

Board support experience including the coordination of meetings, reviewing board papers, proof reading and using Diligent software.

A proactive problem-solver who can anticipate needs and act with discretion.

A team player who's resilient, adaptable, and available outside core hours when required.

Experience supporting senior executives in fast-paced environments.

What's in it for you

A collaborative, values-driven workplace where your voice matters.

Be a key member of the senior leadership team.

An opportunity to enhance your EA experience and be acknowledged and valued.

A competitive salary plus 5 weeks annual leave, healthcare benefits, and work from home flexibility (not structured).

These EA roles don't come up that often.
