(High Salary) Executive Assistant

3 weeks ago

Canberra, Australia Hudson AU Full time

Overview

The Opportunity is not your typical EA role. As Executive Assistant, you’ll be the right hand to two C-suite leaders in a respected membership-based organisation. Your role is central to their success – ensuring they’re focused on the big picture, while you manage the detail with precision. You’ll be the calm in the storm, the advisor who helps set priorities, and the professional face they can rely on day in, day out. In short, you’ll make it possible for them to lead.

What you’ll be doing

- Managing complex diaries, schedules, and travel arrangements
- Prioritising and managing email correspondence on behalf of the executives
- Anticipating needs and ensuring meetings are well-prepared with the right information at hand
- Acting as a sounding board and advisor, providing clarity on priorities and deadlines
- Building strong relationships across the organisation and with external stakeholders
- Maintaining discretion and professionalism at all times

What we’re looking for

- Experience supporting senior executives (C-suite or equivalent)
- Exceptional organisational and time-management skills
- Strong judgement, initiative, and the ability to see the bigger picture
- Professional communication and stakeholder management skills
- A collaborative, proactive working style with high attention to detail

What’s in it for you

This is your chance to be more than an assistant – to be a partner in leadership. Alongside a competitive package and salary packaging benefits, you’ll gain unique exposure to decision-making at the highest level. You’ll play a pivotal role in shaping how two leaders use their time, their focus, and ultimately, their impact.
