The role
We are looking for an Executive Assistant to support both our Head of Customer Experience, Nektarea Cameron-Smith, and our CTO, Chris Aitchison. We are early in our journey of having EAs support us, so we’re excited for you to show us what we don’t know – but at this stage, we anticipate the role will involve:
Diary management – using both MS Office and Google Apps suites
Managing travel arrangements – largely but not exclusively domestic
Communication with internal and external stakeholders
Board meeting preparation and logistics
Building relationships and finding networking opportunities within the EA community in the wider Bendigo Bank group
Generally ensuring your exec is at the right place, at the right time, with the right information
Bonus points if you have a great smoothie recipe – we love to start our day off with one!
You will have the opportunity to make this role your own and define what good looks like. We are looking for someone who has played in this space before, is incredibly confident in their ability to provide support to an executive, and who values the importance of clear and regular communication.
What we are
not
looking for is:
Someone to sit at the reception desk – we don’t have one!
An office manager – we already have a great one
While needs will change according to what’s on the calendar, we anticipate you’ll need to be in our Melbourne CBD office 2-3 days per week on average. For this reason we can only consider candidates who
currently reside in Melbourne
