Salary: £18,500 - £23,000 pa, depending on qualifications and experience

Closing date: Wednesday 23rd January 2013

Location: Hampshire and Isle of Wight Wildlife Trust

Hampshire and Isle of Wight Wildlife Trust is the leading local nature conservation charity and is one of the largest of the county-based Wildlife Trusts with a lively, dedicated and passionate team of 100 staff and 700 volunteers. We seek to increase people’s involvement in their local environment and in turn create better conditions for wildlife on land and in the sea.

The Executive Assistant will have an exciting, wide-ranging view of the inner workings of a major conservation charity, gaining insight into its governance, its day to day operations and its strategic aspirations by working closely with and in support of the Chief Executive Officer, its Senior Management team and its Board of Trustees. The focus will be administrative and secretarial support of the CEO, as she also has an extensive external role, working in partnership with governmental agencies and in the third sector.

It is essential that you have proven experience of providing administrative and secretarial support at a senior level, ideally within the charity sector, with demonstrable skills in planning, organising and prioritising competing demands on the CEO’s time, as well as your own. You must also be a highly skilled communicator as you will have responsibility for maintaining effective internal communications. Proficiency in the use of IT will be required.
