This is a hybrid role that combines high-level executive support with project coordination, business planning and operational delivery. Working as a trusted partner to both SVPs, you will help ensure the smooth running of their day-to-day activities while coordinating strategic initiatives, driving follow-up on key actions and supporting the effective delivery of team priorities.

The role is ideally suited to someone who excels at balancing exceptional organisation with project management and thrives in a fast-paced, international environment.

Success in this role will be measured by your ability to anticipate needs, maintain excellent executive support, and ensure the successful coordination and delivery of key business initiatives. You will be a trusted partner to both SVPs, enabling them to focus on strategic priorities while ensuring that projects, commitments and day-to-day operations run seamlessly.
