Summary

A Vacancy at Central and North West London NHS Foundation Trust.


An exciting opportunity has arisen to provide advanced, high level and quality executive support to the Chief Finance Officer and Chief People Officer.

This is a highly demanding role and you will need to possess significant experience in providing executive support at a senior level within a multifaceted organisation. You will need to be a highly motivated, forward thinking individual with extremely strong organisational skills and the ability to use your initiative to manage the varying demands of the role. A strong working knowledge of MS Outlook, Word, Excel and Powerpoint are essential.

The responsibilities are extremely varied and include high level diary management, meeting/event co-ordination, project support and extensive partner/stakeholder liaison. You will have specific responsibility for overseeing the departmental boards ensuring clear forward plan, agenda and clear and precise minute taking.

This role would be perfect for an experienced, enthusiastic and energetic individual who possesses a natural ability to plan ahead. It is an exciting but equally challenging role and you will need to be highly organised, confident and articulate.

This is an exciting, fast paced and busy environment. The CFO and CPO have extremely key roles within the organisation and the Executive Assistant is required to support them in every facet of their work.

The Executive Assistant provides a high-level administrative position which provides direct support to the CFO and CPO . The role works closely with both posts in order to help execute the organisation’s goals. The position supports the Executive Directors’ work with the Board of Directors and Executive Board teams, Divisional and Directorate teams and external organisations. The role is instrumental in assessing and implementing Executive systems of reporting and administration. The role requires an advanced understanding of the Executives’ portfolios and other complex areas commensurate with the roles of the CFO and CPO.

The role is responsible for overseeing and managing both Executive Directors’ meetings both internally and externally including the coordination of the forward planner, agendas, papers and taking accurate minutes. The Executive Assistant also monitors and supports junior admin staff within the directorates as required, especially when new in post, and deputises for other Executive Assistants to cover holiday, sickness etc. including for the Chief Executive's EA.
