Executive Assistant to the CEO, Elliott Gray. Canberra ACT. PA, EA & Secretarial (Administration & Office Support). Full time. $80,000-$90,000 plus super. Proactive. Detail orientated. Forward thinking. Professional. Sense of humour. Do these words resonate with you? Are you an experienced EA looking for a permanent role in a small team environment? Read on!

This member-based organisation is led by a very impressive CEO. A lawyer by trade and a true governance professional, this busy executive leads a high-profile peak professional body with statutory regulatory responsibilities. A strategic and collaborative leader, she works with a passionate team to deliver a large number of reform programs, regulatory functions, and member services.

Busy is probably an understatement.

We are looking for an experienced and professional EA to join her team and allow her to lead from the front without having to worry about where she is going, how she gets there, or what she needs to bring. We need someone mature-minded and intuitively able to not only do what is asked of you but predict what is not yet asked and take full ownership of tasks to see them through from start to finish, wherever they may take you.

Your commitment to detail is second-to-none. Taking charge of the CEO inbox, you manage correspondence on her behalf and have an exceptional grasp of the English language.

Your discretion and confidentiality mean you have her back. You will start from a position of a trusted relationship, and maintaining that level of trust underlies all you do. As a skilled and confident communicator, you can wrangle the toughest stakeholder and leave them feeling positive and looked after. A true team player, you recognise your part in contributing to an open and honest culture.

Your skills? It goes without saying that you are a great manager of time and calendars; you easily navigate the full suite of MS Office tools and are able to develop templates from scratch. Managing multiple inboxes is easy for you, and you enjoy the administrative tasks needed to support governance activities.

Your character? You are warm and supportive; you know how to have a laugh, and you effortlessly create a trusting environment that allows your CEO to stop and take a breath every now and then. You have no problem making her a cup of tea—not that she would ever ask you to—but because you know it's what she needs.

Like any EA role, this one comes down to your fit and energy with one another. If this sounds like a role you would enjoy, then we would love to tell you more.

What else is on offer? A standard 35-hour work week, additional paid leave over Christmas, wellbeing days to support your work/life balance, and coming in 2025—a brand new office in a central city location.

Please apply now to be considered for this great role working with someone we have known, worked with, and respected for many years!
