Project Coordinator / EA - Camden area - Hybrid working (3 days in the office, but initially 4 days in the office throughout probation period )

A leading executive search and leadership advisory firm working across all consumer-facing industries is looking for a Project Manager / EA to work across their Hospitality, Leisure and Travel division to support a newly appointed Director (still TBC). Whilst this appointment is being made you will support the Founder on an interim basis.

With huge growth plans over the next couple of years you will be an integral part of the Project Management / EA team and in such the role offers excellent scope for development and progression.

A Project Coordinator/ EA is a complex external facing position that requires a balance between being a key point of contact between senior executives, candidates, clients, internal stakeholders and managing a heavy administration workload. You will be the driver of the search timeline, ensuring that key deliverables are achieved at each stage as well as the more traditional aspects of a Project Manager role such as proactively managing your Partner’s/Director’s diary and inbox, assuring their time is utilised efficiently. This role would suit a structured person; however the alternative aspect of the role is dealing with people, so you also need to be able to manage constant change and reprioritisation.

Our Project Coordinators / EA’s are the front face of our organisation and the heart of our customer service experience for our clients and candidates. This is a complex external facing position that requires organisational skills, intellect and high levels of EQ. Our Project Managers / EA’s are crucial to our success; we always strive to be the best at what we do, and therefore we need the best from you.

This role is to support a Director across this division, requiring management across 20+ searches.

KEY SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE

You will be an experienced Project Coordinator / EA with at least 2 years Executive search industry experience with multiple stakeholder experience with complex client/external facing aspect to your position. Experience in a professional services environment is essential and Executive Search experience is also essential.
