We are seeking an experienced Executive Administrative Assistant who excels at managing competing priorities and providing exceptional executive support within a dynamic and fast-paced environment. This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to the success of our Assessments and Finance division.

Reporting to the Head of Assessments and Finance (Chief Financial Officer), you'll provide complex, highly confidential, and professional executive support at the senior leadership level. As a trusted partner to the head of Assessments and Finance, you'll apply sound judgment, discretion, and initiative to support divisional priorities and ensure the smooth operation of the executive office.

This position requires an adaptable, and forward-thinking mindset, with the confidence to navigate a fast-paced environment with discretion and professionalism. You will embrace evolving ways of working, including the effective use of digital, Microsoft 365, and AI-enabled tools to enhance organization,
