Founders Assistant

Start your career at the top.

​

Work directly with the CEO of a fast-growing multi-sector group of companies at board level.

​

An exceptional opportunity to gain first-hand experience, working directly with the CEO of a dynamic organisation focused on renewable energy, sustainable construction, and innovative environmental solutions.

​

This is a high-impact, strategic role offering exposure across multiple business units. You’ll collaborate with the CEO on key initiatives, contribute to strategic decision-making, and gain insight into running a diverse and ambitious business. It’s an ideal position for someone aiming to progress into leadership roles in strategy, operations, or innovation.

​

We’re looking for a driven, analytical, and adaptable individual – ideally with an engineering or scientific background and a passion for sustainability – who is ready to accelerate their career in business leadership. This is not a support role. It’s a unique chance to work closely with the CEO, shaping business direction and making a tangible impact across the organisation.
