CELESTIAL COMMERCIAL

Personal Assistant to Management Consultant

Defence & Public Sector Practice | Remote | Part-Time, Permanent

About Celestial Commercial

Celestial Commercial is a specialist management consultancy delivering high-impact advisory and programme services across the defence and public sector. Our work spans strategy, digital transformation, and complex programme delivery — from initial insight through to full implementation — supporting clients across public services, defence, financial services, and energy.

Our defence and public sector practice works with some of the most strategically significant clients in the UK, delivering operationally sensitive, large-scale programmes that support national capability, digital modernisation, and public service transformation.

The Role

We are looking for a highly organised and dependable Personal Assistant to support the Director of our senior management consultancy on a part-time basis (3 days per week). This is a fully remote role, with very occasional in-person visits to the office — typically less than once a month.

The core focus of the role is inbox and calendar management: acting as the first point of contact for the Director’s communications, gatekeeping and prioritising correspondence, and ensuring their schedule runs smoothly. You will need to exercise sound judgement, maintain absolute discretion, and build trusted working relationships with internal and external stakeholders.

This role suits a confident, self-directed PA who thrives working independently in a remote setting and can be relied upon to manage communications and schedules with minimal supervision.

Manage the Director’s calendar, scheduling and coordinating meetings with clients, stakeholders, and internal colleagues
Resolve diary conflicts proactively and ensure the Director is well-prepared ahead of each commitment
Issue meeting invitations, circulate agendas, and follow up on actions and outcomes where required
Liaise with counterpart PAs and EAs in client and partner organisations to confirm scheduling arrangements

Stakeholder Communications

Act as a professional and personable first point of contact for those seeking the Director’s time or attention
Build positive relationships with key contacts across the defence, public sector, and consulting community
Handle sensitive and confidential information with the highest degree of discretion

Occasionally arrange travel and logistics for in-person meetings or events when required — typically infrequent

Self-motivated and organised, with the ability to work effectively and reliably without close supervision in a remote setting
Proficiency in Microsoft 365 — particularly Outlook, Word, and Teams
Excellent interpersonal skills and a professional, calm manner when dealing with senior stakeholders

Desirable

Prior experience supporting senior leaders within a consulting, professional services, or public sector environment
Familiarity with the defence or public sector landscape, including awareness of key stakeholders and client types
Experience working part-time or in a remote-first role with minimal day-to-day oversight

What We Offer

Celestial Commercial offers a flexible, trust-based working environment well-suited to experienced PAs who value autonomy and meaningful work. You will benefit from:

A competitive salary benchmarked against the professional services market, paid pro-rata for 3 days per week
Fully remote working as standard, with very occasional in-person touchpoints

25 days’ annual leave (pro-rata) plus bank holidays
Pension scheme with employer contributions
Supportive, collaborative team culture with direct access to senior leadership
