Executive Assistant

Job Description

How you'll be contributing to Accurx as an Executive Assistant...

As an Executive Assistant at Accurx, your goal is to ensure that the day of those you support runs as smoothly as possible so they can focus on the company’s priorities and goals! You’ll support up to three members of our executive team, beginning with our VP Growth & VP Finance, with everything from prioritisation, to diary management, to managing inboxes.

Your day to day tasks, should you choose to accept this mission 🤝...

• You'll assist with preparation of agendas and materials for meetings, taking minutes where required and following up on any action items.
• You'll have the opportunity to get involved in lots of ad hoc projects. Examples in the past have included organising our summer conference, implementing mental health first aid training and introducing coaching to our senior leadership team, with many possible future projects in the pipeline.
• You’ll also be a mentor and line manager to the more junior members of the team, helping them to grow and develop their own style of support to our leadership teams.
• As part of Workplace Operations, you can expect to work alongside the Assistants and Workplace teams to create a collaborative and energising working environment for the whole team.
