Our exceptional people deliver exceptional outcomes because they are valued, supported, and encouraged to grow. Join us and be part of our future success story.

We are seeking a highly organised and proactive Executive Assistant to support our Executive General Manager (EGM).

You'll bring:

• Significant experience supporting a C-suite, General Manager, or equivalent senior executive;
• Proven expertise in calendar control, meeting governance, and action tracking;
• Advanced Microsoft 365 skills, including Outlook, Word, PowerPoint, Excel, Teams, and SharePoint;
