We are pleased to offer a new role for a full time Executive Personal Assistant to join our Executive department.

We are offering hybrid working and so the role will be based partly at our Sidcup office as well as working from home.

Our salary for this role is £28,000pa and after successfully passing the probation period and training there will be an increase of salary.

As an Executive Personal Assistant you will work closely with senior managerial and executive staff to provide administrative support, usually on a one-to-one basis. Please refer to the role profile for full requirements of experience, skills and knowledge needed to be considered for this role. 

Trust is an absolute essential when building a positive working relationship between Executive and Personal Assistant. It helps to facilitate a working arrangement in which you will know instinctively what the Executive will want.

A Personal Assistant will need to work with a lot of other people when making arrangements for their Executive. You will need to be efficient, persuasive, and able to get what you need from individuals and organisations, building up lists of contacts and working out where best to apply pressure when needed.

Our ideal candidate looks like this

  • Ideally proven work experience as a Personal Assistant.
  • Microsoft Office knowledge and English proficiency.
  • Experience in minute taking and undertaking secretarial duties.
  • Experience of organising, supporting and servicing senior level meetings.
  • Experience of prioritising own workload to ensure deadlines are met.
  • Outstanding organisational, time and diary management skills.
  • Excellent verbal and written communications skills.
  • Discretion and confidentiality.
  • The ability to work autonomously.
  • Excellent technical proficiency, using a variety of IT applications and packages.
  • Attention to detail.
  • Willingness to learn.
  • Be self-motivated.

Your values should match ours:

Respect: We treat people as we would wish to be treated ourselves.

Excellence: We don’t settle for okay, we are determined to achieve more.

Integrity: We do the right thing, even if it takes more time and effort.

Pride: The work we do is something we want to tell others we are part of.

Benefits you can expect

  • Flexible Working including working from home.
  • 31 days holiday inclusive of bank holidays (pro-rata), increasing after to 2 years’ service and after 5 years’ service.
  • Access to high quality training that supports your career development.
  • Free and confidential 24/7 access to the health portal and employee assistance programme.
  • Contributory pension scheme with life assurance.
  • Recommend a friend scheme.
  • And more.

Why join us?

We are committed to supporting our employees to achieve a good work-life balance and support flexible working including working from home.

We encourage our central services employees to really get to know the organisation and to spend time visiting services, meeting people we support, their families and our support staff.

You’ll be part of an organisation that takes pride in its values at all levels, making sure the people we support are at the forefront of our decisions. 

We value the differences that a diverse workforce brings and are committed to inclusivity and to employing and supporting a diverse workforce so we would love to hear from anyone who feels is able to take those opportunities to the next level.

As part of our commitment to the “Disability Confident Scheme”, candidates who declare a disability, and meet the key criteria for this role, will be given the opportunity to demonstrate their abilities at interview stage. 

Interviews are planned in person on Thursday 7th November and Tuesday 12th November (subject to any changes) and expect successful shortlisted candidates to be available on those dates. 

Don’t miss out on this great opportunity – we are looking forward to hearing from you today
