Your new company
Join a purpose-driven organisation working in an interesting, evolving and high-impact environment as an Executive Assistant to the Chief Strategy Officer on a part-time basis. 22.5 hours per week, ideally across 4–5 days. You’ll become part of a collaborative workplace that values initiative, flexibility and people who are comfortable taking ownership.

You’ll have the experience and confidence to work autonomously, manage competing priorities and bring structure to a busy executive environment. You must be an Australian Citizen to apply.
