Job Summary

We are seeking a high-calibre, polished and highly discreet Executive Personal Assistant to work directly with the Managing Director of a growing film production company. This is a high-trust, executive-facing position for someone who understands how to operate around senior executives, high-profile personalities and fast-paced creative environments. The successful candidate will become an important part of the MD's daily operations — managing schedules, coordinating engagements, following up on priorities and ensuring that the MD's professional and personal commitments are handled efficiently. The ideal candidate is more than an administrator. She must be organised, emotionally intelligent, resourceful and confident enough to anticipate needs, manage competing priorities and represent the MD professionally when interacting with clients, production teams, business partners and other stakeholders. Previous experience supporting a high-profile executive, business owner, celebrity, public figure or senior professional will be a strong advantage.

• Assist with research, documentation, presentations and other executive assignments.

• Personal Assistance

Requirements

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.

• Strong organisational and time-management abilities.

• Good knowledge of Microsoft Office, Google Workspace and digital communication platforms.

• Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.

• Willingness to work flexible hours when required by the MD's schedule or production activities.

• Female candidates are preferred.

• Immediate resumption is required.
