Make a Direct Impact in the Public Sector
Are you a high-level administrative professional looking for a role where your work directly supports the well-being of South Australians?
A State Government department is seeking an exceptional, highly motivated Executive Assistant to provide seamless, confidential, and high-quality executive support to the Executive Director within the department. Operating in the heart of the Adelaide CBD, this is your opportunity to leverage your elite organisational skills to make a meaningful difference in the government health sector.
The Opportunity
In this fast-paced, high-impact role, you will be the ultimate gatekeeper and strategic coordinator for the Executive Director. You won’t just manage a calendar - you will navigate competing priorities, coordinate critical branch information, and facilitate vital communication between the Minister's office, the Chief Executive, and key cross-government stakeholders.
Your daily focus will include:
Executive Support: Managing complex diaries, coordinating travel itineraries, triaging high-level enquiries, and prepping crucial meeting materials.
Correspondence & Reporting: Reviewing and drafting high-level briefs, minutes, and urgent responses for the Minister, Cabinet, and senior leadership.
Project & Event Coordination: Assisting with business planning, tracking statutory data, and coordinating workshops or forums.
Financial Administration: Managing credit card reconciliations and purchasing support via government accounting software.
Who You Are
To thrive in this environment, you are a resilient administrative powerhouse who stays calm under pressure and excels in politically sensitive environments.
Essential Requirements:
Proven Executive Experience: Demonstrated success providing secretarial or executive support to senior management, committees, and board-level environments.
Elite Communication & Tact: Exceptional written skills to draft ministerial responses and the diplomacy needed to navigate complex stakeholder relationships.
Resourcefulness & Drive: A proactive approach to problem-solving, juggling multiple projects concurrently, and managing heavy workloads with absolute discretion.
Tech Savvy: Proficient across the Microsoft Office Suite and experienced in robust record-management practices (experience with Objective systems is highly desirable).
Mandatory Screening & Conditions
Must have a current National Police Clearance (Nationally Coordinated Criminal History Check).
Compliance with SA Health immunisation risk category requirements.
