Executive Assistant Duties
As the first point of contact for the Director, you’ll be customer focused and welcoming, expect the unexpected and breeze through the challenges of the day.
The three fundamental requirements for an Executive Assistant are, the ability to prioritise, remain calm under pressure and remain focused, as you manage the ever-changing set of priorities, flexibility and adaptability are essential attributes. Each day the challenge will differ from the previous one and bring new tasks and challenges.
The more organised and well-prepared you are, the more efficient your time with the Director of Finance & Corporate Services will be spent.
So, if you are smart, sharp, confident, and reliable, have the ability to hear everything that is said; extract relevant information; organise that information efficiently, and take appropriate action, then your next role is waiting for you with Nacro.
Who are Nacro
The people we work with are at a point of change. Many have struggled; growing up in care; facing homelessness; failed by the education system or caught up in the tide of the criminal justice system. The challenges we face shape who we are, but our past shouldn’t dictate our future.
We believe that everyone deserves a good education, a safe and secure place to live, a chance to be heard, and the chance to start again, with support from someone on their side.
We provide practical help and personalised support through our housing, education, criminal justice, and substance misuse services. We work closely with people to help them build independence and to move forward to a better future. We’re compassionate and strong, determined and flexible, and we never give up on people. But this isn’t enough on its own. We need the barriers holding people back removed, and systems we all rely on improved, to give everyone a fair chance.
The voices of those most affected are often ignored, so we fight with them to be heard. We use the insights from our services and our experience to campaign alongside the people we support for meaningful changes in society for those who need it most.
We promote equality, celebrate diversity and value inclusion.
