What can we tell you about this special business?

Our client specialises in the provision of organisation development consultancy for a variety of large and interesting clients globally. They offer clients a range of services focused around leadership, executive team development and large-scale change. These services are all underpinned by deep expertise and intellectual property in this market. They are a business with a very strong reputation, with a team that are truly passionate about what they do.

Recently their business has adapted to the world that we now live in and a lot of their learning delivery is now being done online using video technology and their clients are really hungry for it. They have been massively busy and there is definitely a good news story here. 

Of course it is our job to make our clients sound wonderful but this role is not a tough sell by any stretch of the imagination. You will be joining the business at a very exciting time and you will work with a super group of colleagues and some incredibly interesting clients.

What will be keeping you busy?

This role will be varied and interesting, giving you exposure to a wide variety of activities and interactions with key individuals in the business.

You will get involved with hands-on project management for large scale complex client projects and there may be attendance at key client delivery workshops (this may include overseas travel) when things are back to normal but because of the shift online, most of this attendance is now done remotely. You will also provide assistance with shaping proposal and RFP documents – including composing documents into draft form for consultants to work from.

You will oversee the diary management for 3-4 partners/consultants (who are all seriously good eggs!) and you will liaise with clients directly to set-up calls, meetings and workshops. You will help manage the technology on different programmes (Zoom, Teams, Webex etc.). You will also be working across different timezones which requires it's own added requirement for strong organisational skills. 

Preparing slides and presentation materials for business development meetings

Material production for workshops is also something that you will look after alongside the preparation of slides and presentation materials for business development meetings.

Remote attendance at key internal partnership and strategy setting meetings is also going to be a part of this role as is arranging travel with assistance from the travel provider.

You will also need to manage budgets for the various programmes of work. 

Who are we looking for?

It goes without saying that you will be highly organised and efficient with prior experience of working as an EA. Ideally looking after multiple Partners or Directors. You must have strong project management experience and if you have had involvement with learning programmes, even better. This would be an added bonus.

This is a business full of people with genuinely great personalities so someone who works with passion and also good humour would fit right in here. Being courteous, friendly and tactful with the ability to establish rapport easily is important. You also need to be someone that is happy to muck in as there is a flat structure her and everyone helps out with different things.

We want to see people with strong problem-solving and decision-making abilities who is also able to work to tight deadlines. You will need to be numerate as we have outlined above, you will work with numbers. A high level of IT literacy would also be useful as you will need to get your head around various different video platforms to understand their limitations from a delivery perspective. 

You will have excellent written and verbal communications skills and you need to be a team player, working across geographies and time zones.

Sound good?

Company

Fetch Recruitment was set up by Yasmin Elezaj and Tommy Gale in 2017.  After years of working in and managing successful recruitment businesses, they decided to go into business together and have created an expert team.​

Both with young families and very similar values in and out of work, they realised that they could offer excellent service to clients that were looking for a different approach to recruitment.​

As such, Fetch is a very family oriented business.  We believe that if our recruiters have a good work-life balance, this will reflect in the service that they deliver for clients. This plays out in the quality of service that we provide.​

Our team are not chained to their desks with their phone times being monitored. They are trusted to do what they are good at and because of this they go over and above. They all work from home and this means that we have good coverage across the UK as our team are spread out. ​

We created a commercial proposition that allows us to offer a far superior level of service to clients for much lower fees than our competitors. Everything that we do is about providing exceptional value and we think that we do this really well.
