We have a unique and stimulating full time permanent role of Executive Assistant responsible for the delivery of professional and timely executive services to the Director Museum and Commercial Services and the Director Partnerships and Development.

To be successful in this role you will need an outgoing, confident personality and a highly professional presentation. You'll be an outstanding communicator, able to influence and assist across many diverse internal and external stakeholders.

A strong team ethic as you will work with other EAs and Coordinators, senior managers and directorate staff, a can-do approach and an unflappable attitude are prerequisites.


In return for your skills and experience, we offer a completely unique opportunity, where you can be part of history as it is made.

If you are looking for an opportunity to work in a bicultural organisation with two inspirational Directors we would love to hear from you.
