Haymes Paint has always believed that business is about more than just the products they make. For over 85 years, as Australia’s largest owned paint manufacturer and a proud fourth generation family business, their story has been shaped by people, values and a commitment to doing things the right way.

As the Executive Assistant to the CEO, you will play a pivotal role in supporting the CEO as well as the broader Executive team and family. This role is suited to a highly experienced Executive Assistant who has a proven track record providing support to a CEO and/or Directors and has the confidence to bring ideas and initiatives to the table to add value. You will understand and appreciate the dynamics of a family business and be able to demonstrate a strong values alignment. Being able to be a step ahead of those that you support, demonstrating proactiveness and initiative will see you truly succeed in this varied role.

Daily activities will include:

• Email and diary management for the CEO
• Attending to correspondence, managing business arrangements and travel
• Compiling and distributing agendas and minutes for multiple Board and Executive meetings including managing action items
• Event management of corporate functions
• CEO and Director invoice/expense reconciliations and authorisation
• Managing electronic and paper-based filing systems and record keeping
• Researching and implementing initiatives to enhance and streamline administrative functions

To thrive in this role, you’ll bring proven experience in a similar executive support role, along with strong decision making and problem-solving skills. You’ll be someone who operates with diplomacy, who can build genuine relationships with people at every level, and who communicates with clarity and care. Exceptional organisation and time management are a given, as is a sharp eye for detail – because its often small things that matter the most. Confidence with technology, a proactive mindset and a can do’ attitude will round out the qualities that make you success in this role.
