Our client is a national not-for-profit located in the Lower North Shore with an key mission and a fast growing profile. The team is clever, warm and refreshingly down to earth, and the work genuinely matters.

This is a newly created role, offered as a six month contract initially with potential to move into a permanent position for the right person.

- Coordinating weekly one on ones with the CEO’s direct reports and scheduling across the leadership team
- Arranging frequent interstate travel and the occasional international trip
- Preparing quarterly board packs and supporting the CEO’s governance responsibilities, including signatory processes and contract review
- Acting as the first point of contact for staff and external stakeholders, redirecting queries where appropriate




- Supporting the occasional internal event or team celebration
- Representing the CEO with credibility and carrying their tone through to the team

About you

- A proven track record as a high performing EA at senior level, with extensive C-suite experience
- Smaller business experience, with a sound grasp of governance and making sure documents are signed at the right level
- Tech savvy and keen to use AI to work smarter
- A confident communicator and genuine ambassador for the CEO’s office
- High emotional intelligence, a positive outlook and comfort with a little uncertainty
- A "no job too big or small" attitude matters here, in keeping with the CEO's mantra: get stuff done.
