The Role:
As our Team Exec Support, you’ll be the go-to person who helps our Engagement, Safety and Transformation team stay organised,
connected and on track. You’ll provide proactive day-to-day support to the GM and work closely with managers to coordinate
team rhythms—managing diaries, organising meetings and pulling together agendas, papers, minutes and action registers so
priorities are clear and follow-ups happen. Alongside this, you’ll help prepare and polish leadership-ready documents,
presentations and reporting, and provide coordination support for key projects by maintaining work plans, tracking
actions/milestones and collating updates for timely reporting. You’ll also support policy and consultation administration when
required. This is a varied, office-based role that suits someone with an HR or compliance background, who has experience of
supporting a senior executive and who enjoys juggling priorities, working with a wide range of stakeholders, and handling sensitive
information with discretion.

Got what it takes?

• Proven experience providing executive/senior administration support in a busy, dynamic environment
• Confidence producing high-quality documentation (including executive papers, minutes and reporting packs)
• Strong coordination skills—able to manage meeting schedules, agendas/papers, minute-taking, action tracking and

mindset (with a commitment to health and safety)
