Working closely with the Chief of Staff, you will exercise active judgment on priorities and access, anticipate needs before they are voiced, and ensure nothing falls through the cracks in a fast-moving, internationally-dispersed organisation. Alongside executive support, you will oversee the smooth running of our London office by coordinating facilities suppliers, supporting meetings and visitors, and ensuring the workplace operates effectively day to day. Remit Executive support Own the CEO's time and priorities, exercising confident judgment about what gets scheduled, what can wait, and how leadership bandwidth is deployed.

This likely won't be the right role if you: Are looking to move out of executive support into another profession in the near future Are most comfortable when the work is clearly defined and doesn't require reading ahead Prefer highly predictable schedules and workloads Don't meet every single expectation? Studies have shown that women and people of colour are less likely to apply to jobs unless they meet every single qualification.
