About Altitude EA

Altitude EA is a boutique executive assistant recruitment agency partnering with CEOs, founders, and high-level decision-makers across Australia and internationally.

We specialise in the placement of high-calibre Executive Assistants within corporate, private, and family office environments — where discretion, judgement, and precision matter.

Our model is relationship-led, quality-driven, and built on a deep understanding of the Executive Assistant profession.

The Opportunity

We are seeking a highly capable, commercially aware Executive Assistant to support the Founder in a dynamic, fast-paced environment.

This is not a traditional EA role.

This is an opportunity to step into a high-trust, high-impact position where you will: 

• operate as a true right hand

• bring structure and momentum to a growing business

• and gain exposure to high-level clients and environments

 The Role

 Working directly with the Founder of a specialist executive assistant recruitment business, you will be involved across: 

• role and pipeline coordination

• client and candidate engagement

• marketing and brand execution

• event coordination and networking

• business operations and systems 

This is a hands-on role requiring initiative, judgement, and strong attention to detail.

 Key Responsibilities 

• Manage active recruitment pipelines and ensure consistent progress across roles

• Coordinate interviews, scheduling, and follow-ups with clients and candidates

• Support client onboarding, including preparation of engagement documentation

• Create and manage LinkedIn content, job postings, and website updates

• Design and format polished documents (Canva, proposals, candidate packs)

• Coordinate boutique networking events across Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane

• Source venues, manage guest lists, and oversee event logistics

• Maintain internal systems, templates, and workflows

• Provide direct support to the Founder, including calendar management and prioritisation 

About You

 You are an experienced Executive Assistant who operates with a high level of ownership and professionalism.

 You are: 

• Proactive and commercially aware — you understand the importance of clients, momentum, and outcomes

• Well-presented and confident in high-level environments — comfortable engaging with senior stakeholders

• Naturally organised and detail-oriented — able to manage multiple moving priorities

• Digitally capable — confident across modern tools, platforms, and systems

• Calm, solutions-focused, and self-directed

 You do not wait to be told what to do — you anticipate, act, and follow through.

 Networking & Presence

 This role suits someone who:

• enjoys being in professional, high-level environments

• is comfortable attending events and representing the brand

• values relationship-building and connection

• is either well-networked or confident building networks over time

 Technical Capability 

• Strong proficiency in Microsoft Office (Word, Outlook, Excel)

• Advanced capability in Canva and document formatting

• Experience managing website backends and uploading content

• Comfortable working with CRMs, databases, and digital tools

• Strong general technology confidence 

Why This Role

This is an opportunity to step into a role that offers more than traditional Executive Assistant support.

You will gain: 

• Exposure to CEOs, founders, and high-level decision-makers

• Involvement in a specialist executive assistant recruitment business

• Opportunity to attend and support curated networking events

• Potential interstate travel (Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane)

• Exposure to international clients and environments overtime

• A clear pathway to grow into recruitment or advisory responsibilities

 Working Structure 

• Sydney-based (hybrid role)

• Opportunity for in-person collaboration with the Founder

• Part-time or full-time considered
