Role Overview :

We are looking for a high-performing Executive Assistant to support our British CEO, who is based in Dubai. You will enable him to operate at maximum effectiveness by acting as a trusted extension, anticipating needs, keeping priorities in motion, and creating the space for focus and impact.

You’ll be based in our Dubai office and serve as his right hand : a gatekeeper, problem-solver, and strategic enabler who helps both him and the business to move faster and smarter. You’ll liaise daily with leaders across all functions and geographies, ensure critical actions are tracked and completed, and handle both business and lifestyle admin to reduce friction and distractions.
