Job Description - Executive Assistant Pa - Home based
Executive Assistant
Executive support, HR administration and business coordination
Location: Home based
We’re looking for an organised, proactive Executive Assistant to support a busy executive team and help keep the day-to-day business running smoothly.
This is a varied role for someone who enjoys bringing order to busy schedules, building relationships and making sure important details don’t get missed. Alongside traditional executive support, you’ll assist with HR administration and coordinate with customers, suppliers and colleagues across the business.
You’ll become a trusted point of contact—someone who understands priorities, anticipates what’s needed and follows things through.
What you’ll be doing
* Managing executive diaries: Coordinating appointments, resolving scheduling conflicts and helping the leadership team make the best use of their time.
* Organising meetings and travel: Arranging meetings, preparing agendas and supporting materials, taking notes where needed and following up on agreed actions.
* Supporting HR administration: Helping coordinate recruitment, onboarding and leavers, maintaining confidential employee records and liaising with HR advisers or external providers as required.
* Coordinating with customers and suppliers: Handling correspondence, arranging conversations, following up on requests and making sure queries reach the right people.
* Providing day-to-day executive support: Preparing documents, reports and presentations; managing expenses; and keeping information organised and accessible.
* Keeping things moving: Tracking deadlines, chasing outstanding actions and spotting practical ways to improve how the team works.
Who we’re looking for
You may already be an Executive Assistant or Personal Assistant, or come from an office management, operations or senior administration background with relevant transferable experience.
You’ll need excellent organisational skills, strong written and verbal communication, and the confidence to work with senior leaders and external contacts. You should be comfortable balancing changing priorities, handling sensitive information discreetly and using everyday office software and diary-management tools.
Some experience supporting HR administration would be helpful, but you don’t need to be an HR specialist.
Above all, we’re looking for someone approachable, dependable and resourceful—equally comfortable offering a warm welcome, solving a practical problem or politely reminding a busy executive that something needs their attention.
