As Executive Assistant to the CEO, you will play a critical role in supporting the CEO across all facets of his day, spanning the Acquire Group of companies, other businesses he is involved in, and selected personal matters.

  • Help facilitate both business and personal tasks to ensure the CEO can focus on high-priority objectives.
  • Assist with personal admin and payments, such as invoices, reconciliations, or liaising with service providers.
  • Work closely with other team members to ensure seamless daily operations and provide support across teams where needed.
  • Be curious and proactive in using AI and modern tools to continuously improve how things get done.
  • Undertake other duties as reasonably required in support of the CEO and the broader business.
