Lead Executive Assistant

At Scope, our CEO leads the direction of an organisation that supports thousands of people with disability and the workforce who stand beside them every day.

The work behind that leadership doesn't happen by accident.

It takes someone who can anticipate what is needed before it's needed. Someone who can bring order to complexity, coordinate competing priorities, build trusted relationships, and create the conditions for leaders and teams to do their best work.

When you do your job well, meetings have a purpose, communication is clear, important decisions don't get lost, and the right people are connected to the right conversations, at the right time.

That impact flows throughout the organisation, ultimately improving the experiences of both employees and clients.

As the Lead Executive Assistant, you will help create the conditions for strong leadership and organisational effectiveness by:

• Providing proactive support to the CEO and Executive Team
• Leading and developing Scope's Community of Practice for Executive Assistants
• Coordinating communication, planning and organisational activities that enable better decision-making
• Building strong relationships across the organisation and with external stakeholders
• Supporting the smooth operation of Scope's Hawthorn office and executive services

You'll be someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment, exercises sound judgement, and can confidently navigate competing priorities while maintaining professionalism and discretion.

At Scope, you'll join an organisation that:

• Creates meaningful opportunities for people with disability to belong and thrive
• Believes great leadership starts with great support
• Values collaboration, inclusion and belonging.
• Strives for continuous improvement
• Invests in learning, development and wellbeing
• Offers salary packaging and a range of employee benefits

Most importantly, you'll do work with a purpose.

While you may not provide direct support to our clients, your work helps the people who do. And that makes a real difference.

Keeping people safe is everyone's responsibility at Scope.

You will have, or will successfully obtain all relevant checks, including an NDIS Worker Screening Check, Working with Children Check and other role-specific clearances.
