Listing ref 8c4702f781

We are looking for an exceptional, self-driven Executive Assistant to support a senior leader in our fast-growing EU Stores Retail Hardlines organization. This is a high-impact role that calls for attention to detail, sound judgment in ambiguous situations, and the ability to juggle multiple competing priorities while consistently meeting tight deadlines.

You will act as a seamless extension of the leader you support and partner closely with other Executive Assistants across the organization. Success in this role means anticipating needs before they arise, driving process improvements that create capacity for the leadership team, and building trusted relationships at every level of the company.

Position can be based in London, Luxembourg, Madrid, Milan and Munich
