Personal Assistant

£17.5 - £20.2 per hourEstimated
Full-time

The Short of it

We are seeking an experienced Personal Assistant to provide strategic administrative support to our senior management team.

This role, based in either our Glasgow or Edinburgh office, requires exceptional organisational skills, expert diary and meeting management, and the ability to manage competing priorities in a fast-paced environment.

You will be entrusted with highly confidential information, demonstrating integrity, discretion and sound judgement at all times. As a key support partner to our senior team, you will communicate confidently across all levels of the organisation and with external stakeholders, ensuring the smooth and effective operation of the business.

About you

Applicants for the role of Personal Assistant must have previous experience in a Personal Assistant role, supporting senior managers or directors.

You will be a self-starter with a proactive approach to your work, who enjoys finding solutions to creative problems.

Given the nature of the role, you will be confident in building relationships across all levels of the business and have the ability to maintain confidentiality when handling sensitive information. 

About the role

At Watermans, we focus on making processes as straightforward as possible for our clients. We aim to deliver the same experience internally within our business. With this in mind, being organised with the ability to communicate clearly and engage with our team in a positive manner is essential to success in this role.

As a Personal Assistant you will provide key administrative support and diary and meeting management to our senior management team. You will be responsible for ensuring compliance and maintaining confidentiality, and be required to communicate at all levels of our business and with external stakeholders, as well as facilitating minute-taking and report collation for senior team meetings.

We offer a flexible, hybrid working scheme with working hours split between office and home working. 

We look forward to hearing from you!
