Executive PA

What will you be doing

The role requires proactively managing a highly demanding and fast-moving diary, along with complex travel logistics, meeting schedules and shifting priorities. You will deliver comprehensive and confidential administrative support to senior leaders, including managing email correspondence, coordinating responses, preparing briefing materials and ensuring all parties are fully prepared for upcoming deadlines. You'll be trusted to maintain documentation, handle sensitive information discreetly and act as a reliable point of contact for internal teams, regulators and external partners.

You will also contribute to wider organisational activities by supporting leadership projects, assisting with cross-cover within the PA team and ensuring continuity in the absence of key individuals. This includes preparing agendas, minutes and action plans, following up on decisions, delegating tasks where appropriate and providing flexible support to meet the needs of the Executive and Leadership team.

Who are we looking for

The ideal candidate will have strong foundational education or equivalent practical experience, alongside proven capability in supporting senior leaders within a large and complex organisation. You will bring excellent organisational, communication and time-management skills, with the ability to work autonomously, manage competing priorities under pressure and solve problems logically and creatively. High proficiency in Microsoft Office applications is essential, along with the professionalism and confidence required to work effectively at director level.

Additional desirable experience includes formal computer literacy qualifications, shorthand or advanced typing skills, and familiarity with organisational structures similar to NRS. Knowledge of E-rooms or comparable systems, as well as experience within the nuclear industry, would be advantageous but not essential.
