London, Greater London, United Kingdom War Child UK Full time

We are looking for an Executive Assistant/Officer to CEO to be an integral part of War Child's company secretariat, working with the Leadership Group, the Chair and the rest of the Board of Trustees to lead excellence across the management and governance of the organisation.

Reporting to the CEO, you will be an energetic and organised self-starter with a positive and proactive attitude. You will support the CEO across all their responsibilities through providing a mixture of executive assistance and project co-ordination.

As Assistant Company Secretary you have responsibility for ensuring War Child meets its statutory and regulatory requirements through compliance and reporting to the UK Charity Commission and Companies House.

If you have the following qualities, we look forward to hearing from you:

  • Exceptionally organised with the ability to produce high quality outputs in a short timeframe.
  • Able to communicate to a high level, both in writing and verbally, particularly regarding formal correspondence and be competent taking minutes for high level meetings.
  • Experienced in working as an Executive Assistant at a Csuite level and in supporting a Board and/or charity governance, including the drafting of minutes, reports and presentations.
  • Able to make judgements about relating priorities, choosing between options where the solution is not always obvious and considerable initiative and prudence need to be applied.
  • Experienced in managing a multifaceted work programme, working independently and seeing projects through to completion, thinking laterally where required.
  • Flexible and have the ability to demonstrate a calm and measured approach and discretion in dealing with highly confidential information.
War Child is a creative and dynamic organisation.

We try to keep an informal ambiance within our office, with a lot of room for creativity, inspiration and self-initiative from employees.


We practice what we preach:
dynamic, innovative, integrity focused and a drive to reach the highest possible results. War Child offers a challenging job in an inspiring workplace.


We recognise the considerable benefits that
flexible working can bring and are happy to discuss any possible flexible working options with our employees from hiring.

For most roles, the following types of flexibility are usually possible:
flexible hours, occasional working from home and compressed hours.


At War Child we are driven by a single goal - ensuring a safe future for every child affected by war.

We work in some of the hardest to reach places to support those who are hardest hit.

If you share our values and believe that children's lives should not be torn apart by war, we'd love to hear from you.
