If you are looking for a role that can develop toward Chief of Staff, project coordination or customer operations, please read on. The Company A well-established international industrial group serving demanding customers across engineered products, manufacturing and mission critical operations. With a broad footprint, continued investment and an ambitious improvement agenda, the business is experiencing significant growth and executing operational transformation. The company now wishes to appoint an outstanding Executive Business Partner to support a senior global executive, strengthen the rhythm of the leadership office and help turn strategic priorities into coordinated action. The Role This high-trust appointment places you alongside a senior executive leader. You will combine first-class executive support with business coordination, team and customer awareness and the confidence to keep critical activity moving. Operate as the executive's trusted business partner, anticipating needs, challenging constructively and protecting time for the highest-value priorities. Coordinate executive visits, industrial site engagements, customer meetings, events and team activity across multiple functions and geographies. Develop concise briefings, presentations, dashboards and meeting packs that enable well-informed decisions. Create a clear operating cadence across leadership meetings, decisions, actions and follow-through. Track commitments, remove bottlenecks and maintain momentum across cross-functional projects and customer-critical actions. Act as a polished and responsive point of contact for senior colleagues, customers, suppliers and external partners. Lead selected improvement initiatives and special projects, building experience relevant to a future Chief of Staff or project coordination role. The Person You may already be an Executive Assistant, Executive Business Partner, senior project coordinator or customer operations professional with experience supporting leaders in a complex, fast-paced organization. What matters most is your ability to think ahead, build trust and convert competing demands into clear outcomes.

You will bring:

A bachelor's degree in business, finance, marketing, communications or a related discipline, or equivalent professional experience. At least three years' experience across executive support, project coordination, event delivery or customer-facing operations. Confident use of Microsoft 365, particularly PowerPoint and Excel; experience with Smartsheet or similar tracking tools would be advantageous. Executive presence and the communication skills to engage credibly with senior leaders, customers and operational teams. Sound judgement, discretion and the confidence to act before being asked. Outstanding organization, attention to detail and ownership of outcomes. A calm, practical approach to solving problems in a changing, deadline-driven environment. A service mindset combined with the ambition to grow beyond traditional administrative support. This position offers rare access to senior decision-making, and the opportunity to influence how a global leadership office performs. For a high performer, there is a credible pathway within approximately two years toward Chief of Staff support, project or program coordination, customer operations or a broader commercial assignment.
