Executive Assistant - Mid-Market Business Operations

About the role

MYOB, a business management software company serving Australia and New Zealand, is looking for an Executive Assistant who will act as the operating engine behind its Mid-Market business. This is not a traditional EA role: you will partner closely with the Executive General Manager and the leadership team to keep the business running at pace, driving alignment, accountability and execution. While calendar, inbox and travel management remain part of the role, most of your time will be spent orchestrating business operations, improving processes and enabling leaders to focus on customers, people and strategy.

Key responsibilities

• Own and coordinate the operating rhythm of the Mid-Market business, including leadership meetings, business reviews, planning cycles and strategic priorities
• Track decisions, actions and commitments so that accountability and follow-through are maintained across the leadership team
• Partner with People Experience and Operations on compliance, performance cycles, engagement initiatives and onboarding
• Plan and deliver team engagement activities such as all-hands meetings, community events, volunteering days and in-office experiences
• Build and optimise AI-enabled workflows and automations that improve meeting preparation, reporting, action tracking and business coordination
• Provide executive support including calendar, inbox, travel and expense management for the EGM
• Prepare executive communications, presentations, briefings and reporting materials

Required profile

• Experience supporting senior executives in a complex, fast-paced environment, ideally in roles with broad operational ownership
• Demonstrated experience running business rhythms, governance processes, leadership forums or strategic projects, not just coordinating them
• Experience planning and delivering engagement initiatives, events or programs that bring teams together
• Ability to influence stakeholders, follow up on commitments and challenge senior leaders constructively when needed
• High judgement, discretion and professionalism with sensitive commercial and people information

Required skills

• Strong organisational and project coordination skills, able to manage competing priorities
• Hands-on experience with AI tools such as Microsoft Copilot, Power Automate, Claude or similar
