About the Role

Ready to be the strategic right-hand to a Senior Leadership Team that's shaping the future of water and sustainability in Australia?

We're after a sharp, proactive partner who doesn't just keep pace with leadership — you stay one step ahead. You'll:

• Support multiple members of our inspiring leadership team
• Deliver insight-driven briefings that sharpen decision-making
• Strengthen how information flows across the leadership team
• Sharpen priorities so the VP and SLT stay focused on what matters most
• Shape strategic planning that fuels real growth

You'll also be the engine room behind it all — coordinating complex workflows, mastering dynamic calendars, and creating clarity out of chaos. Think: orchestrating high-stakes meetings, building briefing packs that land, powering leadership events, and constantly finding smarter ways to work.

If you love turning complexity into simplicity — this is your stage.

About You

You've spent 5+ years supporting senior executives — ideally at VP or C-suite level — in businesses that never stand still. You're at home in fast-moving, ever-changing landscapes, and you bring:

• Strategic instinct — you connect the dots others miss and think several steps ahead
• Influence — you move stakeholders across every function, with confidence
• Judgement — cool, sharp decision-making when the stakes are high
• Tech-savvy curiosity — you're always exploring smarter workplace tools
• Discretion and EQ — you're trusted with the sensitive stuff, always

You're looking for more than a role — you want to join a business on a genuine growth trajectory and grow right alongside it. As SUEZ scales and evolves, you'll be evolving too.

You bring calm to chaos and structure to complexity. You live at the intersection of strategy and execution — constantly refining systems, smoothing friction, and freeing up leaders to focus on what truly matters.

And beyond the day-to-day? You help build a culture people are proud to be part of.
