Job Details

Prospectus is delighted to be partnering with Bowel Cancer UK, who are determined to save lives and improve the quality of life of all those affected by bowel cancer in the UK. To achieve their mission, they enable and fund research, provide support and information to patients and their families, educate the public and professionals about the disease and campaign for early diagnosis and best treatment and care for all. They are now seeking an experienced Executive Assistant to the CEO.

Bowel Cancer UK is an ambitious, values-based organisation and the CEO is seeking an experienced and supportive EA to provide full proactive and strategic administrative support that will enable her to focus on priority areas for the charity. A pivotal role for them, you will work collaboratively with your colleagues across the organisation, including the senior leadership team, and will contribute to enabling the charity to meet their overall goals and objectives. This is a key role with significant responsibility for all general EA duties including meeting preparation and minute taking, diary and inbox management as well as working closely with internal and external stakeholders to gather information needed to allow the CEO to carry out her role. Finally, you will also contribute to the management of the office environment and be responsible for managing external contracts.

To be successful you will be an open, diplomatic and proactive person with proven experience in a similar position with excellent minute taking and diary management skills. You will show gravitas and credibility in your work, and have experience of all aspects of board-level or senior meetings. You will show empathy as well as emotional and strategic intelligence and demonstrate flexibility in your working style to accommodate this ambiguous and exciting time in their development. Finally, this is a partnership and therefore good communication and the ability to adapt to varying needs and audiences is essential.

The CEO is warm, personable and very open with her staff, and prides herself on the positive working environment and culture that is driven across the organisation at all levels. This is an incredible opportunity to join a charity who are unashamedly ambitious and determined to stop this disease for good; ultimately, you will be saving lives!
