Location: Hemel Hempstead, HP2 (on-site for key meetings)
Salary: £40,000 - £50,000 + bonus + benefits
Start Date: January 2026
About The Role
We're looking for a confident, proactive Executive Assistant to work closely with a small team of busy Directors leading a growing, international business in the education and design sector.
This is a hands-on, varied role where no two days are the same. You'll be the person who keeps things running smoothly behind the scenes — managing diaries, coordinating meetings across time zones, following up on key actions, and helping the leadership team stay one step ahead.
If you love making things happen, enjoy variety, and take pride in keeping people organised and informed, this could be the perfect next step for you.
What You'll Be Doing
You're probably someone who enjoys being the "go-to" person — organised, reliable, and great at getting things done. You'll be confident working closely with senior leaders, comfortable managing lots of moving parts, and able to make sound decisions on your own.
You'll need to be adaptable, commercially aware, and quick to understand how different pieces of the business fit together.
We're looking for someone who is:
This would be a great fit for someone who thrives in a fast-moving environment and enjoys being at the centre of things. You'll need to be quick-thinking, solutions-focused, and comfortable working alongside entrepreneurial leaders who move at pace.
If you like to take ownership, enjoy seeing projects through from start to finish, and have the confidence to make decisions independently, you'll fit in well here.
