We are looking for an ambitious, hardworking and highly organised individual to join our growing business as a Business Administration Apprentice, working directly alongside the Founder.
You will complete a Level 3 Customer Service Specialist Apprenticeship, while gaining hands-on experience supporting the Founder and the wider business.
The long-term goal is for the successful candidate to progress into a permanent Personal Executive / Executive Assistant position, taking on increasing responsibility as they develop.
This is a unique opportunity to learn how a growing business operates while working closely with the Founder, clients and senior business contacts.
What You'll Be Doing
Your responsibilities will include:
- Managing the Founder’s diary, meetings and appointments
- Organising meetings, travel and business activities
- Supporting the Founder with day-to-day business and personal administration
- Preparing documents, reports and presentations
- Managing files, records and spreadsheets
- Communicating with clients, suppliers and business contacts
- Helping coordinate projects and follow up on actions
- Supporting business development and new opportunities
- Taking on additional responsibilities as you develop
No extensive experience is required. We are looking for the right attitude, ambition and potential.
The Person We're Looking For
You will be:
- Highly organised and reliable
- Hardworking, committed and ambitious
- Trustworthy and highly discreet
- Professional and confident communicating with others
- Comfortable working with senior people and high-profile clients
- Proactive and able to use your own initiative
- Open-minded and eager to learn
- Someone with a "stuck-in" attitude who gets involved and takes ownership
Because you will work closely with the Founder, you may be exposed to confidential business information and private conversations. Absolute discretion, confidentiality and trust are essential.
This Is Not an Easy Role
We want to be upfront: this is not a role for someone looking for an easy apprenticeship.
Working directly with a Founder can be fast-paced, demanding and sometimes unpredictable. You will be expected to work hard, learn quickly, take responsibility and occasionally go beyond your comfort zone.
We are looking for someone who wants to build a career, not simply complete an apprenticeship.
In return, you will receive direct exposure to senior-level business activity, valuable experience and the opportunity to develop into a trusted Personal Executive to the Founder.
The Opportunity
For the right person, this apprenticeship is the beginning of a long-term career.
As you develop, you will be given more responsibility and the opportunity to progress into a permanent Personal Executive / Executive Assistant role, with potential future progression into business operations, project management or senior executive support.
If you are ambitious, hardworking, trustworthy and ready to get stuck in, we would love to hear from you.
To apply, please send your CV and a short covering letter explaining why you want to build a career as a Personal Executive and why you think you would be a good fit for this role.
