A unique opportunity has become available for an experienced Executive Assistant to provide high-level support to a CEO and Board within a high-performing, ASX-listed corporate environment. This role is ideal for a polished EA with exceptional organisational skills, board governance knowledge, and the confidence to engage with senior internal and external stakeholders.

  • Assist with the organisation of key corporate events such as the AGM, investor presentations, and leadership offsites
  • Provide ad hoc support to the Company Secretary and CFO in governance and reporting matters
What We’re Looking For
  • Minimum 5 years’ experience as a Senior Executive Assistant, ideally within an ASX-listed or highly regulated organisation
  • Proven experience supporting a Board or Company Secretary
  • High-level written communication and document preparation skills
  • Strong proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite
  • Highly discreet, professional, and confident in dealing with C-level stakeholders
  • Experience with board portals (e.g., Diligent) is desirable
  • Tertiary qualifications in business administration or similar are highly regarded
What’s on Offer
  • Work closely with a high-calibre leadership team in a respected corporate environment
  • Be a central part of executive and board-level operations
  • Excellent salary package: Circa $135K + Super + Bonus
  • Modern CBD offices and hybrid working available
  • Stable business with strong growth and a clear strategic focus
This is an exciting opportunity for a motivated and professional Executive Assistant who thrives in a fast-paced, high-stakes environment. If you're looking for a long-term role with depth, variety, and influence — apply now.
