Description

When we recruit technical sector experts for our leading UK Trade Association, we usually start by posing the question: why work for just one company when you can influence your entire sector for the better? The skills may be different for this hands-on, varied, and interesting senior role, but that underlying principle holds good for you as an experienced Executive Assistant, and hopefully gives you a reason to read on?

In so doing, you will have the chance to make a major contribution to an essential industry critical to the UK construction and manufacturing sector.

Let us also reassure you that we are in for the long haul of our journey to support our Members - we don't believe in "quick fixes" to the challenges they face.

Some key areas of responsibility are:

Provide executive support to the Chief Executive;
Provide governance and secretarial support to the Board, the Council and the Company Secretary;
Support the smooth running of the office including: visitor reception; room management; central diary coordination; and supplier liaison;
Providing executive support to other regional staff and teams;

That's just for starters As with all of our roles, you certainly won't be short of interesting and varied work

What are we looking for in you in return? A few of the key criteria:

quality track record of a similar role within a medium/large corporate organisation;
Graduate calibre with strong numeracy skills and excellent written and spoken English, and a keen eye for detail;
Experience of providing secretarial support to executive committees, including producing agendas, papers and minutes;
The ability to work proactively and a willingness to act on own initiative, highlighting issues and suggesting possible solutions, whilst exercising confidentiality, discretion and personal sensitivity in all aspects of the role.

A time to change for you and a time for you to influence an entire sector for the better? If so, we'd love to hear from you.
