We are seeking a highly organised, proactive and professional Executive Assistant who thrives on managing complexity and making things happen. In this pivotal role, you will provide high-level support to the Executive Director Finance and The Chief Information Officer, ensuring they are fully briefed, well-prepared and able to operate effectively across their portfolios.
