Variety and Challenge. Growth and Opportunity.
In the retail business, we move fast. We’re always adapting, evolving and innovating. And the fast pace brings variety and challenge, along with continued growth and opportunity.
We have a fantastic opportunity for an individual that loves a fast pace and changing environment to join us as a Executive Secretary for TJX Europe.
You may not have heard of TJX Europe, but chances are you’ve shopped in Homesense or TK Maxx; these are part of our TJX Europe family.
In this role, you’ll assist two of our Retail Vice Presidents (VPs). Our Retail VPs look after our markets in Poland, Austria and the Netherlands and play a key role in our European Strategic projects. You’ll play a key role in enabling them to achieve this.
**About you**:
You’ll be the type of person who takes the initiative to support with administration, diary management and travel arrangements. You will play an active role in creating presentations, submitting expense claims and other general administrative tasks. You respond proactively and reactively in the role and build authentic relationships quickly across the business to ensure the best and most effective assistance is provided for our two VPs. You act with discretion and sensitivity. You’re decisive and able to work in a fast-paced environment, balancing business priorities and delivering to strict deadlines whilst remaining calm under pressure.
You have experience in an administrative role and can demonstrate the required skills below
/ Educated to GSCE level (or equivalent) in Maths and English
/ Excellent/Advanced PC skills in Word, Excel, and PowerPoint
/ Strong communication skills
What’s in it for you?
/ 10% discount in all our stores which goes up to 20% on selected weekends
/ Subsidised gym membership at The Club, our state-of-the-art gym and wellness centre.
/ Loads of catering options across our campus. They serve healthy and delicious choices every day. And it's all sustainably sourced.
/ Campus spaces available for associates to relax in. This includes our very own rooftop terrace and Games Lounge.
/ Cycle to work scheme
/ Season ticket loan (terms apply)
/ 28 days holiday (including bank holidays)
Where you’ll be based?
You’ll be primarily based in our new Forever Home in Watford, but there will be flexibility to work remotely occasionally. If you are able to speak Polish, Dutch or German, this would be an advantage, but it’s not essential. There maybe the requirement to travel to our European Markets on occasion too.
We consider all applicants for employment without regard to age, disability, gender, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnerships, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief and/or sexual orientation.
