Executive Assistant

The Role

The organisation is investing in its Christiana operation, and this Executive Assistant position reflects that commitment. The successful candidate will work across the administration jobs function and contribute to the wider North West business.

Importantly, the successful applicant is given the room to plan, deliver and review their work without unnecessary noise. The organisation has built its Christiana team on trust, and the Executive Assistant role will feel that from week one.

Equally, the role has been written to be sustainable, not just busy. Strong output is expected, and managers in Christiana also pay attention to recovery, learning and the kind of breathing room that keeps people doing good work over time.

Tools, systems and information are there to support the role rather than slow it down. The company continues to invest in the technology that backs its Christiana teams, and the new Executive Assistant will feel that from the first week.

About the Team

You will join a tight-knit, collaborative team that knows the administration jobs side of the business inside out. The Christiana group is a healthy mix of experienced operators and newer joiners, all of whom share a strong commitment to delivery and to one another.

Line management is hands-on without being heavy. Expect regular one-to-ones, honest feedback and the support needed to do good work consistently.

Equally, the team mix in Christiana reflects a balance of experienced operators and emerging talent, with deliberate space for diverse voices and backgrounds.

Why This Role

Few roles let you see the impact of your work as quickly as this one. Every shift, project and decision in Christiana contributes to real outcomes for clients and colleagues across the administration jobs space in North West.

Practically speaking, the company reinvests in its people: paid training, internal moves and the chance to take on bigger projects are all part of how careers in Christiana keep progressing.

Recognition matters here. Strong performers are noticed quickly, and many promotions across the business have started in the Christiana teams.

Day in the Life

Your day starts at the front of the business, ready to greet visitors, answer the switchboard and make sure the leadership diaries are in order. Through the morning you balance calls, couriers, capturing data and supporting projects with neat, accurate work. After lunch, you might be preparing minutes from a board pack, helping HR onboard a new starter, or chasing a courier across town. By close of day, every desk you support knows you have it covered, and the office is set up for a calm, productive tomorrow.

Practically speaking, the Christiana office buzzes through peak hours and settles into focused, productive lulls in between, giving you time to plan and reset before the next stretch of work.

No two days look exactly the same — and that variety is part of what keeps the role engaging for the right candidate in Christiana.

Beyond that, the rhythm rewards people who plan ahead but also pivot quickly when North West operations throw up the unexpected.

Career Growth

Career progression here is real, not a slogan. The administration jobs space in Christiana offers a clear runway from delivery into team leadership and beyond, and managers sit down with each team member regularly to map out the next step in North West.
