Job Description
About the roleand about you
This is not a traditional Executive Assistant position - thrive for much more! As an Executive Business Partner, you will operate as a strategic partner to C-suite leaders, balancing operational excellence with business insight. You'll lead projects, coordinate strategic initiatives, manage governance activities, and ensure executives are equipped to make informed decisions quickly and effectively.
Working to initially support our Chief Customer Officer, you'll have the autonomy to challenge, influence and drive outcomes while building strong relationships across the organisation. The role may evolve to support a 2:1 model supporting our leadership Team.
To succeed in this role, you are highly organised, commercially minded and comfortable operating in complex environments. You bring the confidence to influence senior stakeholders while maintaining discretion, professionalism and sound judgement.
This is a permanent role, based at our Redfern office and requires travel to other SGCH office locations as required.
Duties
- Partner with executives as a trusted advisor, providing insight, recommendations and constructive challenge.
- Coordinate and drive cross-functional projects and strategic initiatives.
- Prepare high-quality board papers, reports, presentations and briefing materials.
- Manage executive priorities, ensuring seamless coordination of strategic and operational activities.
- Track risks, actions and deliverables across key projects and governance forums.
- Build strong relationships with internal and external stakeholders.
- Support executive communications and organisational messaging.
- Drive adoption of AI, Microsoft 365 and automation tools to improve productivity and decision-making.
- Provide high-level executive support including diary management, correspondence, travel and financial administration.
- Act as a brand ambassador for SGCH and support leadership continuity when required.
Desired Skills and Experience
- Tertiary qualifications in Business Management or related field, with demonstrated experience partnering with C-suite executives in a role that combines strategic advisory and operational delivery.
- Strong track record in leading and coordinating cross-functional projects and strategic initiatives, ensuring alignment with organisational priorities and governance requirements, with proven ability to anticipate needs and enable decision-making at pace.
- Strong understanding of business drivers, risk management, with the demonstrated ability to apply these to executive decision-making and operational processes.
- Advanced written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to craft executive-level reports, presentations, and stakeholder communications, while influencing and challenging constructively. This includes proficiency in Microsoft 365 and collaboration platforms, coupled with a willingness to champion AI and automation tools to streamline processes and enhance productivity.
