Personal Assistant | £42,000 + Bonus | Hybrid working: 4 days in the office, 1 day from home
The Opportunity
A leading privately owned UK property and urban regeneration business is seeking a highly organised, proactive Personal Assistant to join a well-established Business Support Group.
This is a varied and pivotal role within a fast-paced, ambitious organisation delivering some of the UK's most exciting large-scale regeneration schemes across residential, workspace, retail, leisure and education.
The Role
You'll sit within a team of 10 PAs and EAs, supporting a busy portfolio of senior stakeholders across two key business areas. Primarily, you will provide comprehensive support to a Director-level leader and two members of their team within Asset Management - a fast-moving, high-demand brief where strong diary management and polished presentation skills are essential. You will also support a Development Director and one of thier team members, with a focus on diary management.
This is not a role for someone who wants a quiet inbox. You'll need to be trusted, discreet, detail-orientated and comfortable operating with autonomy in a dynamic environment where priorities shift quickly.

- Maintaining CRM databases and project directories
- General admin including printing, binding and tracker management
