Executive Assistant to the CEO (Full Time)

Location: Cheshire
Hours: 37.5
Salary: £33,961.76

Ready to Be the Right Hand to a Visionary Leader?

Join David Lewis as an Executive Assistant (EA) to the CEO and become a vital part of an organisation transforming lives and shaping the future.

Are you the person people rely on to make things happen — organised, proactive, calm under pressure, and brilliant at navigating busy, fast‑paced environments? Looking for a role where your work directly influences the success of a purpose‑driven organisation?
If so, this is your moment.

Who We Are

David Lewis is a dynamic, mission‑driven organisation providing life‑changing support to people with complex needs. Our CEO leads an ambitious and meaningful agenda — and we’re looking for an exceptional Executive Assistant to ensure their world runs seamlessly.

Why You’ll Love This Role

You’ll be at the heart of the organisation, working closely with the CEO, Executive Team, Trustees, and key external partners. Your support will help drive our strategic priorities and keep the organisation moving forward.

You will:

Shape how the CEO’s time is used.
Coordinate high‑level meetings and communications.
Support major organisational projects.
Play a critical role in governance and board support.

No two days will be the same — and your impact will be felt at every level.

Key Responsibilities

Act as the CEO’s right hand: managing diaries, prioritising demands, and ensuring everything runs efficiently.
Prepare polished reports, briefings, correspondence, and meeting documentation.
Coordinate the CEO’s meetings with the Executive Team, Trustees, and external partners.
Support the effective running of Trustee Board meetings and committees.
Foster strong relationships with leaders, colleagues, and stakeholders.
Anticipate needs, resolve issues, and help drive organisational priorities forward.

Committee & Board Meetings — Important

A key part of this role includes supporting our governance structure.
This involves attending and coordinating committee and Board meetings, which typically take place between 4pm and 6pm.

These meetings are usually once a month, sometimes once every two months, so the postholder will need to be able to offer flexibility on those days.

Who You Are

A proactive, highly organised professional who is:

Exceptionally organised and able to manage competing priorities.
Tech‑savvy with strong MS Office and Teams skills.
Discreet, professional, and confident handling sensitive information.
A strong communicator who builds trust easily.
Calm under pressure and thrives in a fast‑paced environment.
Skilled at working with senior leaders and Boards.

What You Bring

Experience as an Executive Assistant supporting senior leadership.
A proven ability to multitask and meet deadlines.
Confidence working with Boards and senior teams.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
A commitment to making a real impact.

Why Join Us?

Full‑time role supporting the CEO at an exciting time for the organisation.
Hybrid working: a blend of onsite and remote working.
Professional development through working closely with senior leaders.
Meaningful impact: your work enables better outcomes for the people we support.
A positive, collaborative, purpose‑driven culture.
