Executive Assistant

The Role

The Executive Assistant to the Chief Revenue Officer (CRO) provides high-impact, strategic administrative support at a late-stage, pre-IPO company. As the CRO’s primary partner, you will play a critical role in managing executive priorities, coordinating complex client-facing schedules, and ensuring effective communication across a rapidly evolving global organisation.

This role requires a proactive professional who thrives in a fast-paced environment and can balance technical administrative excellence with a high degree of "client-first" emotional intelligence. You will serve as a trusted liaison between the CRO and internal teams, global clients, and external partners, acting as a force multiplier for the CRO’s leadership and impact.

You will maximise the effectiveness, leverage, and operating cadence of the CRO by managing priorities, orchestrating global stakeholder engagement, and ensuring flawless execution across internal and external commitments.

This is far more than a traditional Executive Assistant role. It is an opportunity to operate at the heart of a high-growth global revenue organisation spanning enterprise clients, board-level stakeholders, and cross-functional executive leadership.

You will combine exceptional organisation, sound judgment, commercial awareness, and calm execution under pressure.
