East Midlands England, United Kingdom GK Executive Talent Ltd Full time £30,000 - £40,000 per year

Executive Assistant to the EMEA General Manager


Midlands, UK (Hybrid – periodic in-office weeks required)


Full-Time | International Consumer Brand


Excellent Fixed Salary

A leading global organisation within the beauty and personal care sector is seeking a highly professional and exceptionally organised
Executive Assistant
to support the EMEA General Manager. This role demands a polished, proactive individual who thrives in a fast-paced environment and is committed to delivering excellence at an executive level.

The Opportunity

This is a pivotal position providing high-level support to a senior leader responsible for driving strategic growth across the region. You will act as a trusted partner to the GM, ensuring priorities are managed effectively and that communication across internal functions remains seamless.

The ideal candidate is composed, detail-driven, digitally fluent, and confident managing a wide scope of responsibilities—from executive administration to project coordination and cross-functional communication.

Key Responsibilities

Executive Support

  • Provide comprehensive administrative and organisational support to the EMEA General Manager
  • Coordinate complex schedules, priorities, and cross-functional projects
  • Prepare high-quality presentations, reports, briefs, and documentation
  • Support weekly reporting and executive dashboards

Operational & Commercial Coordination

  • Act as a liaison between Sales, Marketing, Operations, Education, and regional teams
  • Support order tracking, delivery follow-ups, and event/product launch forecasting
  • Contribute to sales enablement activities, including prospecting and CRM updates
  • Manage communication flows across teams to ensure clarity and alignment

Digital, Marketing & Communications Support

  • Assist in coordinating digital and social media activities across key channels
  • Support content planning, asset development, and online engagement
  • Collaborate with digital specialists on content scheduling and execution
  • Coordinate influencer and ambassador communications when required

Project Coordination

  • Assist with timelines, communication, and deliverables for marketing, trade, and publicity initiatives
  • Coordinate project materials, creative briefs, and education-related assets
  • Refine presentation materials using Canva; Adobe Suite skills welcomed

Ideal Candidate Profile

  • 2+ years' experience in executive support, project management, administration, marketing, or a related field
  • Demonstrated ability to excel in a high-pace, high-expectation environment
  • Outstanding organisational, time-management, and multitasking skills
  • Professional communication style and strong stakeholder management capability
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office; familiarity with CRM tools such as HubSpot or advantageous
  • Confident using Canva; Adobe Suite and video editing skills considered a plus
  • Strong digital literacy and understanding of social media platforms
  • Interest in the beauty, personal care, or consumer lifestyle sectors preferred
  • Ability to work autonomously with high levels of responsibility

Why This Role Stands Out

You will join a respected, purpose-driven organisation and support a senior leader with broad regional responsibilities. The environment is:

  • Fast-paced and innovative
  • Integrity-led and performance-oriented
  • Collaborative and highly professional
  • Focused on excellence and continuous improvement

This position offers significant visibility, cross-functional exposure, and the opportunity to make a meaningful contribution to a growing international organisation.

How to Apply

If you are a polished, driven, and highly organised professional seeking an influential EA role with real impact, we welcome your application.
