**Executive Assistant to CEO**

**Location**:Hybrid flexible working

**Hours per week**:35 hours

**Contract Type**:Permanent

**Salary**: £36,000 to £39,000 in London; £34,000 to £36,000 outside London

**Closing Date**: 23rd January 2023

**DO YOU WANT TO JOIN OUR COMMITMENT TO ENSURE NO FAMILY FACES CANCER ALONE?**

When a child is diagnosed with cancer life becomes full of fear, for them and their family. Fear of treatment, but also of families being torn apart, overwhelming money worries, of having nowhere to turn, no one to talk to.

At Young Lives vs Cancer, we help families find the strength to face whatever cancer throws at them. And you could be a part of the team making it happen.

**THE ROLE**

To help us achieve our future ambitions and current organisational objectives, we’re looking for a talented and driven Executive Assistant to work with the CEO and the Chair of Board of Trustees. You’d be working alongside a high performing leadership team and a passionate, highly effective Board of Trustees, supporting the CEO office to ensure the organisation runs efficiently, effectively and compliantly.

We know how vital operating with good governance is, and we’re committed to working with integrity and transparency, even when we get it wrong. You would be responsible for the secretariat for our organisational governance, working with the Director of Strategy & Governance, making sure that we are holding ourselves to account. Please don’t worry if you don’t have governance experience, a willingness to learn about charity governance, great organisational skills and a curiosity is all that you need.

It’s a busy CEO office so you’d need to be proactive, skilled at multi-tasking and as comfortable building relationships with parents and young people as you are politicians. Often you’d need to say no to people, so you would need to bring charm and empathy to the role. You’d manage two busy diaries and we’d be looking for you to be able to proactively prioritise what’s important and necessary. To do this effectively you would have a passion for the cause and want to get under the skin of the organisation.

The EA will also chair our PA network, establishing the group and setting clear aims and objectives, looking at how you can develop the ways of working and identifying areas of process improvement as well as taking on dedicated projects.
