  • Prepare high quality documents, reports and communications for senior stakeholders
  • Balance office presence in Brisbane CBD (George Street) with flexible WFH
What We Are Looking For
  • Proven EA experience supporting senior leaders at the portfolio or enterprise level in large and complex organisations
  • Strong background in financial services such as superannuation, insurance or banking
  • Confidence with financial and administrative processes including purchase orders, invoicing and approvals
  • Highly organised, discreet and solutions focused with the ability to anticipate needs in a fast paced environment
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
Contract Details
  • Full time contingent contractor role
  • Initial 12 month term
  • Start as soon as possible
  • Competitive daily rate based on experience
Why Apply

This is more than diary management. It is a career building contract in the financial services industry, supporting executives with portfolio wide responsibilities at the centre of one of the most significant transformations in Australia. If you thrive in large, complex environments and enjoy being a trusted partner to senior leaders, this role offers challenge, visibility and impact.
