Could you be our next Team Assistant?

Do you thrive on keeping senior leaders organised, prepared and one step ahead? Are you the go-to for polished presentations, seamless meetings and getting every detail right? 
As the Team Assistant to our Chief Development Officer, Director of Development and Director of Construction, you'll be the go-to person for the team behind our new restaurants. You'll manage busy diaries and travel and coordinate our monthly Development Board Meeting from agenda to actions. You'll also craft polished PowerPoint presentations, help announce new restaurant openings, and look after budgets, invoices and supplier relationships.

  • Shaping on-brand PowerPoint presentations that leaders are proud to present
  • Coordinating communications for new restaurant openings, making sure key milestones get shared across the business
  • Managing the G&A budget, processing invoices and submitting staff change requests
  • Looking after our Walsh Bay satellite office and keeping it running smoothly, organised and ready for the team
  • Looking after supplier relationships and helping plan department events
  • Working with the wider Team Assistant network to share load and ideas

Your keys to success:

  • Experience supporting senior or C-Suite leaders with administration
  • Strong MS Office skills, with a particular eye for PowerPointTech confidence: you're the person who gets the meeting connected
  • Excellent written and verbal communication
  • A proactive, positive attitude and the curiosity to keep improving how things are done
  • The ability to build strong relationships with internal and external stakeholders
