Executive Assistant
Blue Light Card. Individually great, together unstoppable
The Role and the Team
We have an exciting opportunity for an experienced Executive Assistant to join our fast-paced Executive team due to growth. You’ll be at the heart of the action, supporting our C-suite to help them stay organised, focused, and one step ahead. You’ll manage schedules, meetings, and key priorities, to enable us to drive our mission of making heroes happy.
What You’ll Do
- Keeping our C-suite organised with seamless diary management, meeting coordination across multiple time zones, and inbox management
- Owning travel planning from start to finish – from train tickets to international flights and accommodation
- Preparing meetings that run like clockwork, including preparing agendas and documents to room setup and refreshments
- Taking clear, actionable minutes and ensuring follow-ups don’t fall through the cracks
- Supporting key projects and events, from team offsites to all-company gatherings
- Managing expenses and submitting reports to keep everything running smoothly behind the scenes
- Acting as a go-to support for the wider leadership team, handling a variety of admin tasks with efficiency and discretion
- Jumping in on ad-hoc projects and requests – no two days are the same!
What You’ll Bring
- Significant experience as an Executive Assistant, supporting C-suite or Senior Leadership Teams, with a clear understanding of what great EA support looks like
- A confident communicator who can build strong relationships across all levels, manage external partners, and represent the exec team with professionalism
- Exceptionally organised, detail-oriented and proactive – able to juggle priorities, work at pace, meet tight deadlines, and stay one step ahead
- Tech-savvy and always looking for smarter ways to work; confident using Microsoft Office, with experience of tools like project management platforms or AI assistants a bonus
- Creative and resourceful – whether you're pulling together a board pack, arranging a team offsite or managing hospitality, you bring polish and flair
- A trusted pair of hands who always exercises discretion, keeps things confidential, and lives our values in everything you do
- Flexibility to travel to either our Leicester or London offices as needed (likely monthly)
- Experience of working in a similar industry or high growth companies would be beneficial
