At the NSPCC, our vision is to end cruelty to all children in the UK. An ambitious but worthwhile mission — and one you will help us achieve as an Executive Assistant.

This exciting opportunity has arisen for an enthusiastic and dynamic Executive Assistant to join the Support Services team. The Services Directorate is led by a team of Directors, responsible for an effective and efficient service delivery in line with our 10-year strategy. As an Executive Assistant, you will work as a member of this team, supporting Directors with administration tasks, supporting project delivery and maintaining a high level of service.

As an Executive Assistant, supporting the Services Senior Leadership team, you would be expected to possess the skill to work flexibly within a team, as well as have the ability to organise and prioritise your own, and your Directors workload, respond to deadlines and deal with confidential sensitive material. The successful candidate will need to be committed, skilled and flexible, with a real passion for the work they do and a desire to contribute to making a difference to the lives of children.

Key responsibilities include:

• To provide excellent customer service to internal and external stakeholders; including the Services Senior Leadership team.
• To undertake the full suite of Executive Assistant duties as well as deliver project coordination as required.
• To proactively identify problems and come up with solutions.
• To effectively work within a team to achieve outcomes.
• Be able to prioritise and forward plan, whilst managing conflicting priorities.
• Use your initiative to seek opportunities to facilitate the achievement of Directorate priorities.
• Be responsible for your own development and share knowledge and information with others to create an environment of lifelong learning.

This role would suit someone with some experience in an administrative and/or Personal/Executive Assistant function, with experience of tasks such as diary management, forward planning, minute taking, action logs and project coordination, although training will be provided where needed. We're able to offer a varied role with development opportunities for the right candidate. We welcome applicants from diverse backgrounds, and we'll consider flexible working options.

Join us and you'll become part of a team that cares about the work they do and the people they work with. You'll discover opportunities to grow, along with challenges and a shared purpose that'll bring the best out in you. And you'll get to find your own way to make a difference that means more, and that impacts millions of young lives.
