• Drafting and formatting documents, reports, and fee proposals
• Maintaining project initiation trackers and statistical reports (via Deltek Vision)
• Managing CPD points and professional registrations
• Organising complex travel itineraries, accommodation, and cost allocations
• Filing and managing digital mailboxes and internal systems
• Liaising with HR, Finance, and external consultants where necessary

What You'll Bring

• Minimum 5+ years' experience in a senior-level PA or EA role
• Impeccable organisational and time management skills
• Outstanding verbal and written communication (English)
• Proven ability to manage sensitive information with discretion
• High proficiency in Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Outlook, PowerPoint)
