A day in the life of an Executive Assistant at Postworks

You’ll be the first port of call for our CEO for a private equity backed scaling tech company, so you’ll look after emails (prioritising and drafting), phone calls, meeting requests, and make sure everything is as it should be.

You’re the sort of person who can juggle tasks in your sleep (though we won’t ask you to).

There’ll be lots to organise; UK and international travel for board members, you’ll check key priorities, and be on site or working from home according to business requirements.

This job is for you if:

• you are someone who is always “on it” in terms of attention to detail and prioritising tasks
• you’re able to say no but leave people feeling warm and fuzzy when you do
• you thrive in a fast paced environment and working for a company who’s leadership sets a high bar for integrity
• are confident making informed and commercial decisions in the best interests of the company

What we offer you

The opportunity to be part of an award winning business that looks after its people. From monthly rewards to an annual all-expenses paid holiday, we reward big for big performance.

We’re growing quickly in an industry that is digitising the posting process for 10bn letters per year, which means you will have the opportunity to grow too.

We’ll support personal development or professional qualifications.

What you offer us

You will feel inspired by our mission ‘to be a pleasure to do business with’ and excited to be part of our journey.

Must haves

• Previous experience in a similar role
• A know it all with written communication and a lover of good grammar and punctuation
• You’ll love talking to all kinds of people no matter their job title
• Juggling skills! Yes you’ll need to be able to manage multiple tasks at the same time
• The ability to get people on the same page and working to the same timescales
• You can drive so you can attend meetings on and off-site where required
• Serious attention to detail
• Ability to anticipate the CEO’s needs and maintain a proactive approach knowing when you should step in

Great to haves

• A current DBS check (don’t worry this is easily sorted if you haven’t)
