About The Role

The EBP is a critical member of the Executive Function, responsible for ensuring the CEO and leadership team operate at maximum effectiveness.

This role goes beyond traditional executive support. It combines genuine business acumen with exceptional administrative execution and ownership of executive operating rhythms, meeting cadences, communication flows and strategic priorities, using commercial understanding to shape how leadership time and decisions are organised.

It is a unique opportunity to gain exposure to every facet of a rapidly scaling deep technology company at the forefront of defence, aerospace and advanced technology.

About You

You bring order to complexity — a natural organiser who holds multiple priorities, people and deadlines in view at once, takes real ownership of outcomes rather than tasks, and understands the business well enough to know which decisions matter most and how to organise leadership around them.

You combine sharp judgement with discretion - you can be trusted with sensitive, confidential and at times classified information, and you know when to act, when to flag, and when to simply get on with it. You are comfortable in a fast-moving, still-forming environment, unfazed by shifting priorities and confident working directly with senior leaders without needing every step spelled out.
