The role
Are you ready to help change lives through better sight and hearing? Are you an organised, proactive Personal Assistant who thrives in a fast-paced environment and loves keeping everything running smoothly behind the scenes? At Specsavers, we’re looking for a Personal Assistant to support our Technology & Commercial Directors, an important and varied role where you’ll be at the heart of both function.
This is a fantastic opportunity to work closely with senior leaders, providing high-level, professional support that enables them to focus on what matters most. You’ll be the go-to person for diary management, meeting coordination, travel planning, and stakeholder communication, making sure everything is aligned, efficient, and delivered with attention to detail.
In the role, you’ll be managing complex diaries, coordinating meetings across multiple stakeholders, and handling travel arrangements both in the UK and internationally. You’ll support the preparation of agendas and materials, take minutes, track actions, and act as a key point of contact between executives and internal and external stakeholders. You’ll also provide broader administrative support, from managing expenses and organising events to supporting onboarding activities and covering for other PAs when needed.
You’ll thrive in this role if you’re highly organised, calm under pressure, and able to juggle multiple priorities with ease. Your attention to detail will be second to none, and you’ll bring strong stakeholder management skills—building relationships across the business and working collaboratively with other PAs and teams. You’ll be confident using Microsoft 365 tools and comfortable handling sensitive information with discretion and professionalism.
What sets you apart is your proactive mindset, you anticipate what’s needed before being asked, take ownership, and bring energy and positivity to everything you do. You enjoy being the person who makes things happen and takes pride in delivering high-quality support.
If you’re looking for a role where you can make a real difference supporting senior leaders within a global organisation, this is your opportunity. Join us as a Personal Assistant and help keep our teams running at thier best.
