Full job description

If you’d like to be considered for this opportunity we encourage you to apply promptly to avoid disappointment as if applications are high the role will close before the closing date given.

Business Administrator - Personal Assistant

Location: RG7 4PR, located between Reading and Basingstoke, with free onsite parking.

Package: Up to £40,000 per annum (depending on your suitability, qualifications, and level of experience)

Working pattern: The role is full-time on a 9-day fortnight. The core working hours for this role are between 08:00 and 17:00.

It is anticipated that the successful candidate will spend the majority of their time working on site at one of AWE sites in South-East England.

Let us introduce the role.

AWE is currently recruiting for an experienced Personal Assistant (PA).

You will provide a highly trusted, proactive, and professional level of PA support to senior leaders at AWE, enabling them to operate effectively within a complex, fast‑paced and highly regulated environment. This role requires someone who can work autonomously, exercise sound judgement, and anticipate requirements - ensuring senior leaders are consistently well‑prepared, properly briefed and supported to deliver against their mission objectives.

The role blends exceptional professional expertise with proactive, anticipatory support, acting as an extension of the leader’s office to enable confident decision‑making and delivery at pace through autonomous, judgement‑led support.

Responsibilities include complex diary and inbox management, prioritisation, delegation, issue resolution, and de‑confliction on behalf of senior leaders, often with minimal instruction.

This position requires an experienced, high‑performing personal assistant with credibility and confidence, able to manage competing priorities, handle sensitive information with discretion, and build strong relationships across senior internal and external stakeholders.

Who are we looking for?

We do need you to have the following:

Recent experience (within the last three years) delivering high‑quality personal or executive assistant support in an office‑based environment, demonstrating accountability and reliability.
Strong digital capability, including advanced Microsoft Office skills and confident use of AI‑enabled tools to simplify tasks, improve productivity and support effective ways of working.
Excellent organisational and time‑management skills, with the ability to manage competing priorities, exercise judgement and deliver at pace with high attention to detail.
Proven ability to build effective relationships and work confidently with stakeholders at all organisational levels, demonstrating professionalism, discretion, and respect.
A strong awareness of confidentiality, compliance, and risk, operating safely and securely when handling sensitive information.

Whilst not to be considered a tick list, we’d like you to have experience in some of the following:

High‑level customer and senior stakeholder engagement skills, building trusted relationships with professionalism and discretion
Excellent organisational capability, able to prioritise competing demands, maintain accuracy and deliver reliably at pace.
Strong ability to problem solve, use initiative and exercise sound judgement when working autonomously on complex or ambiguous issues.
Confidence operating in a fast‑paced, high‑pressure environment, maintaining composure, resilience, and focus.
Strong digital capability, using Microsoft Office and AI‑enabled tools to simplify ways of working and improve effectiveness.

We encourage you to apply quickly as if we receive a high number of applications, the advert will close sooner than the stated date.

Some reasons we think you’ll love it here:

AWE has wide range of benefits to suit you. These include:

9-day working fortnight – meaning you get every other Friday off work, in addition to 270 hours of annual leave.
Market leading contributory pension scheme (we will pay between 9% and 13% of your pensionable pay depending on your contributions).
Family friendly policies: Maternity Leave - 39 Weeks Full Pay and Paternity Leave - 4 Weeks Full Pay.
Opportunities for Professional Career Development including funding for annual membership of a relevant professional body.
Employee Assistance Programme and Occupational Health Services.
Life Assurance (4 x annual salary).
Discounts – access to savings on a wide range of everyday spending.
Special Leave Policy including paid time off for volunteering, public service (including reserve forces) and caring.
