What I'm looking for

I am looking for a challenging role that enhances my skills and offers growth opportunities.

I am a highly motivated and experienced Executive Assistant with a strong background in supporting senior leadership teams. Currently, I provide comprehensive EA support to the senior leadership team of three executives at ACCT UK, where I manage inboxes, diaries, travel arrangements, and correspondence. My role also involves liaising with boards, coordinating meetings, and overseeing the annual program of events, which has included successful high-profile gatherings.

Previously, I served as the PA and Head Office Manager at Field Lane, where I organized resources for the CEO and Board, managed the relocation of the Head Office during lockdown, and led the introduction of Salesforce CRM. My experience spans various sectors, including healthcare and public policy, where I have honed my skills in project management, relationship management, and event coordination. I thrive in dynamic environments and am committed to delivering exceptional support and enhancing organizational efficiency.
