Ready to be the powerhouse behind the people driving real change?

We’re looking for a Senior Executive Assistant with smarts, charm, and organisational skills that are second to none. If you’re an EA who thrives on keeping things running like clockwork and loves being in the room where the big decisions happen — this could be your next big move.

Join a purpose-driven organisation where your skills won’t just be valued — they’ll be essential. You’ll be supporting Executives who are out there making a real difference in the community services sector, and you’ll be right there with them, keeping things sharp, smooth, and ahead of schedule.

This isn’t just a job — it’s your chance to take your EA career to the next level, work with a fantastic team, and help shape work that truly matters.

In this role, you will:

Keep the Deputy CEO one step ahead with expert calendar and schedule management.

Craft polished communications and be a trusted first point of contact.

Lead the preparation of agendas, minutes, and briefing papers for key meetings.

Build strong relationships and represent the organisation with professionalism.

Contribute to reports and papers presented to the Board and key committees.

This is a permanent, full-time role (76 hours per fortnight) based in Cannington, with occasional travel.

If you’re ready to bring your skills to a purpose driven organisation and be part of something meaningful — we’d love to hear from you!
