About The Role

This is a senior Executive Assistant role with a high level of autonomy, offering the opportunity to join Attivo at an exciting time and provide strategic support to a member of our senior leadership team.

You will be responsible for managing a wide range of administrative and operational tasks, supporting business-critical projects and helping to manage time, priorities and communications. You’ll be the primary point of contact for internal and external stakeholders, proactively coordinating schedules, correspondence and key deliverables with professionalism and precision.

You thrive in a fast-moving, lean business and are unafraid to get stuck in, whether that’s supporting meeting logistics or pulling together complex governance documents.

You want to work for an ambitious and growing company where no two days are the same. Your communication skills are advanced, and you’re confident engaging with senior stakeholders, able to manage sensitive matters with tact and professionalism.

You’re an experienced PA or EA who has supported C-suite or Director-level roles before, ideally within Financial or Professional Services. You’re a relationship-builder who anticipates needs

before they arise and positions yourself as the go-to person for dependable, high-quality support.

• Building strong relationships across the business and supporting on cross-functional projects

• Experience of providing high-level support to C-suite or Director-level roles
• Outstanding attention to detail and the ability to produce consistently high-quality work
• Relentlessly proactive, able to anticipate needs and act ahead of time, rather than react
• Calm and composed under pressure, with the ability to thrive in a fast-paced, lean business environment
• Comfortable managing both strategic and hands-on tasks, from governance documents to meeting logistics
• Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal, with the ability to engage confidently with stakeholders at all levels
• Strong organisational skills and the ability to coordinate multiple concurrent projects and competing priorities
• Proficient in Microsoft Office, including Outlook, Word, PowerPoint and other O365 applications
