The role will suit someone sharp, mature, discreet, commercially aware, and exceptionally good at getting things done.
You should be comfortable working in an setting where priorities can change quickly and where taking initiative is valued more than waiting for instructions.
Key Responsibilities

- Coordinate internal and external meetings across different stakeholders and time zones.
- Maintain a clear tracker of commitments, action items, meetings, and follow-ups.

- Coordinate across multiple teams to keep priority initiatives moving.
- Research topics, companies, institutions, people, or opportunities when required and provide concise summaries.
- Keep track of important dates, deadlines, events, and commitments.
- Anticipate potential issues before they become problems.
What We Are Looking For
The ideal candidate will be:
- Highly organised – able to manage multiple priorities without losing track of details.
- Proactive – someone who sees what needs to be done and acts without constantly being asked.
- Excellent at follow-through – comfortable chasing people, closing loops, and ensuring things get completed.
- A strong communicator – confident, articulate, and professional in written and verbal communication.
- Discreet and trustworthy – understands the importance of confidentiality.
- Resourceful – able to find answers and solutions independently.
- Commercially aware – understands that meetings, relationships, opportunities, and time all have business value.
- Adaptable – comfortable with changing priorities and a dynamic entrepreneurial environment.
