Description

Based: Edinburgh, Newbridge

Bring order to creativity. Make an impact.

Our client is on a mission to help manufacturers make more sustainable choices. The world needs them, and they need you.

They're a small but ambitious team that continue to grow, and they're looking for an EA to support their CEO and keep the business running smoothly.

This isn't your typical EA role. It's varied, dynamic, and at the heart of a forward-thinking, purpose-driven company. You'll be involved in everything from executive support and HR processes to office operations and team projects - helping shape how the business grows and thrives.

What you'll be doing

  • Supporting the CEO with diary, email, and project management
  • Helping the HR function, including recruitment, onboarding, training, and employee engagement initiatives
  • Managing office operations and systems that keep the team connected and efficient
  • Coordinating events, team activities, and projects that enhance company culture
  • Providing reliable, proactive support on initiatives and governance, ensuring smooth day-to-day operations

Who you are

  • Experienced in supporting senior leaders (ideally Founders!) and bringing structure to a busy, entrepreneurial environment
  • Calm, organised, and able to prioritise competing demands
  • A confident communicator who can take initiative and get things done
  • Tech-savvy, with a knack for suggesting smarter ways of working
  • Positive, adaptable, and energised by variety

Why this team thrives

Our client believes business success comes from putting people first. They are a diverse, enthusiastic, and ambitious group of professionals who thrive on collaboration, innovation, and growth. Inclusion, personal development, and wellbeing are at the heart of how they operate, ensuring a happy, productive workplace.

What's on offer

  • Competitive salary
  • Monday to Friday, 9-5pm
  • A positive, inclusive, and forward-thinking culture
  • Opportunities for personal and professional growth
  • Team-building events, recognition programs, and a supportive environment where your contribution really matters

If you're organised, proactive, and ready to bring clarity to a fast-paced, creative environment while making a real difference, we'd love to hear from you.
