We are Hestia. We make a difference. At Hestia, we are guided by our core values and are dedicated to fostering an equitable, diverse, and inclusive organisation. Our mission is to empower individuals to rebuild their lives and achieve independence. Right now, we are looking for a Executive Office Coordinator to play a pivotal role in our CEO's Office in London. Sounds great, what will I be doing? This role provides critical support to the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and the Head of the CEO's Office in completing key governance functions. Responsibilities include preparing, implementing, and disseminating all Directorate and Trustee documentation, such as policy and procedure updates and due diligence information. The role also involves producing and updating visual diagrams and project documentation to assist with reporting requirements. A significant part of the role includes providing complex diary management for the CEO, including scheduling meetings and arranging travel. The postholder is expected to research and prepare briefings on a range of subjects as requested by the CEO and Head of Office. Effective communication is key, with responsibilities covering the management of incoming emails and calls from internal colleagues, stakeholders, and external partners. The role requires regular attendance at meetings to take minutes, maintain action logs, and follow up on tasks in line with agreed work plans. Additionally, the postholder supports financial administration by tracking and maintaining budget documentation, invoices, expenses, and other billing-related matters. Maintaining confidential HR records for the CEO's direct reports is another responsibility, including timekeeping and sickness records. The postholder also supports the Head of Office with ad hoc queries and requests, ensuring all tasks within their own delivery plan are completed to agreed performance standards. Coordination of information across the senior leadership team, internal departments, and external organisations is essential. This includes arranging regular meetings, managing diaries, and logging actions from both internal and external meetings, ensuring timely follow-up. The role also involves liaising with relevant departments to carry out specific tasks and ensure the smooth flow of information. A crucial part of the role is the establishment and maintenance of a clear, accessible knowledge library and filing system. The postholder leads the development and upkeep of support processes and systems-both manual and digital-to enable effective daily operations. These systems are regularly reviewed for relevance, effectiveness, and alignment with best practice. Finally, the role requires resolving administrative issues by analysing information and identifying practical solutions to improve workflow and operational efficiency. What do I need to bring with me? You'll need to be able to demonstrate the core skills this role requires as well as match our values and mission. You don't have to tick all the boxes right away; the important thing is that you're willing to learn. We also value lived experience of the areas we support, so if you feel comfortable, please do mention this on your application.
