Are you an experienced, proactive Executive Assistant looking for your next step?
This is an exciting opportunity to join a global manufacturing organisation based in Bolton, supporting a high-performing and highly regarded Managing Director.

We're looking for a true right-hand partner to the MD - someone who can anticipate needs, act independently, and bring strategic support to a fast-paced leadership environment.

What you'll be doing:

  • Acting as an extension of the MD, ensuring they are fully supported and set up for success day-to-day

  • Proactively managing a busy inbox and taking ownership of priorities

  • Preparing high-quality presentations, slides and briefing materials ahead of meetings

  • Coordinating agendas, actions and follow-ups with key internal and external stakeholders

  • Maintaining organisation, structure and momentum across the MD's projects and commitments

  • Bringing solutions, ideas and clarity - not waiting for instruction

What we're looking for:

  • An experienced EA with a strong track record supporting senior leaders (ideally at MD/CEO/Director level)

  • Someone confident, proactive and able to work with minimal hand-holding

  • A natural organiser with great judgment, communication skills and commercial understanding

  • Someone ambitious, energetic and excited to work at the heart of a global business

  • Strong skills in PowerPoint and preparing polished materials for senior meetings

What's on offer:

  • Salary up to £55,000 (DOE)

  • Hybrid working - 3 days per week in the Bolton office, 2 days from home

  • The chance to step into a critical, highly visible role supporting a dynamic MD

  • A supportive, global business offering real scope for development

We're looking to interview before Christmas, so if you're an EA who thrives in a role with ownership, pace and influence - now is the time to apply.
