Executive Assistant

Role overview

Gordon Murray Group is seeking a highly capable Executive Assistant to support the business Owners in Windlesham. This position is central to keeping executive priorities organised, business activity aligned, and customer-facing experiences delivered to a premium standard.

The role reports directly to the Owners and blends senior-level administrative support with hospitality coordination, stakeholder liaison, and event delivery. You will help connect leadership, internal teams, customers, and external partners while maintaining the discretion and polish expected of the brand.

What you'll do

• Manage the Owners’ diaries, inboxes, and travel plans, staying ahead of priorities and resolving clashes before they become issues.
• Serve as a key link between the Owners and the Leadership Team so updates, actions, and decisions move smoothly across the organisation.
• Draft, format, and carefully proofread correspondence, briefing notes, presentations, reports, and board documents.
• Handle sensitive and confidential matters with complete professionalism and discretion.
• Organise leadership meetings, including agendas, minutes, and follow-through on actions and decisions.
• Support business projects and initiatives on behalf of the Owners by coordinating with internal teams, advisers, and other stakeholders.
• Help plan and deliver customer visits, VIP hospitality, and corporate events to create an outstanding guest experience.
• Act as a main contact for important customers, partners, and guests, communicating with tact, warmth, and professionalism.
• Work with internal departments and external suppliers to ensure events, visits, and hospitality activities run efficiently.
• Assist with launch events, showcases, and special customer experiences, covering guest logistics, itineraries, contingency planning, and on-the-day support.
• Contribute to gifting, welcome packs, and other personalised touches that improve the customer journey.
• Represent the business at customer visits and key events, maintaining a visible, professional presence.
• Collect feedback after customer interactions and events and share insights with the Leadership Team to support ongoing improvement.
• Support travel, event attendance, and customer commitments where needed, including occasional evenings, weekends, and business travel.
