Executive Personal Assistant

Hemel Hempstead

About the role The Executive PA works directly with the Founder & CEO of Redbourn Park and is a critical part of how the organisation functions at pace. This is not a diary-management role — it is an extension of the CEO and elements of the executive leadership team to support in the running of the organisation and the development it has planned. Redbourn Park is a growing group of schools, outreach services, and training elements. The CEO operates across education, therapy, governance, finance, property, and partnerships simultaneously, whilst developing more opportunities and also prioritising family life and personal goals. This role exists to protect the CEO’s time, maintain strategic focus, and ensure that important work actually moves forward rather than stalling in meetings, inboxes, or competing priorities. The Executive PA acts as the CEO’s operational extension — managing information, coordinating people, chasing progress, and creating order around a complex and fast-moving workload, all whilst communicating to a very high level with the CEO, and facilitating a presence whilst he works around his commitments. You will be embedded within the executive team, trusted with sensitive information, and expected to bring clarity, structure, and follow-through. This role suits someone who is calm under pressure, highly organised, sector aware, and comfortable operating close to senior leadership. You will see how a specialist education group is built from the inside and will play a real role in shaping how it grows. From the CEO: It's incredibly important to me to get the role right. I have never had a PA and someone with experience in the sector who can bring additional expertise and support in shaping effective and efficient processes is really important. We are really ambitious and as such, we are juggling a lot of different projects, all with the focus of staying true to our vision and values. A key factor for me is being able to be present for my family and I work around times where they come first and fight for a balance against the pressures of running an exciting and quickly growing organisation. Someone who can help me get organised, be a presence and line of contact when I am not in the office, prepare me effectively, work with other leaders as an extension of me, bring perspective and expertise, and perhaps in more simple terms generally make my life easier will become invaluable quickly.
