• Ensure compliance with governance protocols and support corporate record-keeping.
• Maintain an effective filing and administrative system, both digitally and physically.

Person Specification

• Significant experience as an Executive Assistant or Personal Assistant at Board or C-suite level.
• Strong background supporting senior leadership within the construction, infrastructure or engineering sectors.
