The Company
Our client is a well-established, highly respected organisation with a strong reputation and a genuine commitment to the people it serves. Join a collaborative, people-focused team that takes pride in doing things properly and holds itself to a high standard. You'll work from a modern CBD head office with a friendly, down-to-earth culture and some flexibility in where and how you work. You'll be right in the heart of the city, with trams and trains close by. You'll also be a short stroll from Chinatown, Queen Victoria Market, Emporium Melbourne and the CBD's famous laneway cafés and lunch spots.

The Role
The heart of this role is managing a high-volume inbox. You'll be the gatekeeper and filter for the CEO's correspondence, triaging a high volume of emails daily, identifying what's urgent and sensitive, responding on the CEO's behalf where appropriate, and making sure nothing slips through the cracks. Alongside this, you'll provide high-level executive and administrative support, managing a demanding diary, coordinating travel and acting as the conduit between the CEO, the executive team and senior stakeholders. You'll be privy to highly confidential information and relied on for your utmost discretion.

Experience
This is a excellent opportunity for an experienced Executive Assistant who can hit the ground running, thrives on volume and pace, and doesn't mind pitching in with whatever is needed. You'll have outstanding email and time-management skills and the judgement to know what matters most. Advanced Microsoft Office and AI skills and an interest in improving and automating manual processes will serve you well. Most important is your professional, approachable and "can-do" attitude, along with the ability to operate autonomously in a fast-moving environment.
