Job description

We are looking for a highly organised, proactive and commercially minded Executive Assistant / Founder’s Assistant to support the Managing Director across a growing group of businesses, including children’s residential care, property, recruitment, systems, supplier management and new business projects.

This is not a traditional PA role. The successful candidate will be expected to take ownership of research, follow-up actions, project coordination and administrative problem-solving. You will help turn ideas, issues and opportunities into clear next steps, well-organised actions and completed outcomes.

This role will involve a mixture of business support, personal assistance, research, follow-up work and project coordination. The Managing Director works at pace and across several businesses, so the successful candidate must be adaptable, discreet, resilient and comfortable with changing priorities

This is a high-trust role involving access to sensitive business and personal information. Absolute confidentiality, sound judgement and emotional maturity are essential.

Key responsibilities:

Carry out research into suppliers, services, opportunities, property matters, recruitment options, systems and business ideas.
Prepare concise summaries, comparison tables, recommendations and action plans.
Draft emails, letters, notes, meeting agendas and follow-up messages.
Maintain action trackers and ensure tasks are followed through to completion.
Chase internal staff, external suppliers, contractors, solicitors, agents and local authority contacts.
Support the Managing Director with diary management, meeting preparation and prioritisation.
Help coordinate projects across care, property, operations, recruitment and systems.
Handle confidential and sensitive information appropriately.
Identify problems early and propose practical solutions.

The ideal candidate will have:

Strong written English.
Excellent organisation and follow-through.
Confidence chasing people professionally.
Ability to research quickly and summarise clearly.
Good judgement and discretion.
Experience supporting a director, founder, senior manager or fast-moving business owner.
Ability to work independently without needing constant hand-holding.
Comfortable using Microsoft 365, Teams, SharePoint, task trackers and online research tools.

This role would suit someone who is:

Sharp and quick to grasp new situations
Discreet and trustworthy with sensitive information
Practical, solutions-focused, and hands-on
Able to work at pace without sacrificing quality
Persistent when faced with obstacles
Comfortable tackling complex or messy problems
Skilled at bringing structure and clarity without without creating corporate nonsense

Working Arrangement

The role will be primarily office-based during the 3 month probationary period. This will provide the successful candidate with the opportunity to work closely alongside the Managing Director, gain a thorough understanding of the businesses, and become familiar with key systems, processes, and ways of working.

Following successful completion of probation, a hybrid working arrangement may be considered, subject to performance, the nature of the role and responsibilities, and the needs of the business.

Job Type: Full-time

Pay: £38,000.00-£45,000.00 per year

Benefits:

Additional leave
Flexitime

Ability to commute/relocate:

Croydon CR0 1LE: reliably commute or plan to relocate before starting work (required)

Application question(s):

How will you be travelling to work e.g. car, bus, train?
Are you eligible to work 40 hours without visa sponsorship?
Are you currently working, if so, what is your notice period?
What is your location/postcode?
The role is fully office-based for the first three months to support onboarding and integration into the business. Following this period, hybrid working may be considered. Are you able to commit to being office-based full-time during the initial three months?
Give an example of a time you were asked to research something unfamiliar and turn it into a practical recommendation.
How do you manage several competing tasks from one busy director?
What would you do if someone important was not replying to repeated follow-ups?
How would you summarise a complicated issue for a director who only has five minutes?
Are you comfortable working with confidential information in a regulated care business?
What systems have you used for task tracking, document management or diary management?
What type of tasks do you enjoy least?
Are you more comfortable with routine admin, or chasing messy problems until they are solved?

Education:

Bachelor's (required)

Work Location: Hybrid remote in Croydon CR0 1LE
