At Care ADHD, we’re improving access to high-quality neurodevelopmental services. We’re client-centred and outcomes-focused, with a strong emphasis on operational excellence: clear ways of working, consistent use of systems, and teams who know what “good” looks like.
We’re only two years old - but in that time we’ve grown significantly, achieved remarkable scale while maintaining gold standard clinical care, and built a service that’s changing the lives of thousands of people every single month.
The need is very real. The positive impact we have is immediate. And we’re just getting started.
As we continue to scale, the effectiveness of our senior leaders matters more than ever. That means surrounding them with people who do more than keep things organised - people with judgement, discretion, and the ability to make a senior leader materially more effective through strong coordination, follow-through, and high-quality support.
We’re hiring a Senior Executive Assistant to the COO — a high-trust, high-judgement role supporting one of the most operationally central executives in the business.
This is not a traditional EA role. We’re looking for someone who combines outstanding executive support instincts with real coordination ability, strong written communication, and the confidence to operate credibly in a senior leadership environment.
You’ll manage the COO’s time with intelligence and precision. You’ll ensure meetings are well prepared, actions are followed through, and the right things are surfaced at the right moment. You’ll attend internal meetings on the COO’s behalf where appropriate, capture what matters, and make sure momentum is not lost. You’ll prepare high-quality draft papers, presentations, briefings and communications that give the COO a strong starting point rather than a blank page.
This role will suit someone who is highly capable, highly organised, emotionally intelligent, and quietly formidable: someone who creates confidence around them through judgement, reliability, polish, and consistent delivery.
Be a trusted extension of the COO’s office.
You’ll manage a complex diary, triage competing demands, protect time for what matters most, and ensure the COO is consistently well prepared. You’ll bring order, foresight and discipline to a high-volume, high-responsibility environment.
Help the COO stay ahead of the work around them.
You’ll coordinate the COO's involvement in recurring leadership meetings, making sure agendas, pre-reads and supporting materials are in place, and that follow-through is visible and organised rather than informal or fragile.
Represent the COO internally where appropriate.
You’ll attend internal meetings on the COO’s behalf when useful, capture decisions, actions and risks accurately, and provide clear written or verbal readouts afterwards. You’ll know the difference between representing, coordinating and deciding - and will exercise excellent judgement within that boundary.
Produce high-quality first drafts.
You’ll create polished first drafts of presentations, papers, briefings, updates and executive communications. You’ll be comfortable taking rough direction, partial notes or a loose steer and shaping them into something coherent, well structured and genuinely useful.
Provide practical operational leverage.
You’ll take responsibility for defined coordination tasks and support activity that helps work move forward. That may include setting up SharePoint sites, organising documentation, maintaining trackers, coordinating inputs, or putting structure around cross-functional work that needs to stay on course.
Operate with discretion in a regulated setting.
You’ll handle commercially sensitive, confidential and occasionally special category information with maturity, judgement and absolute professionalism. You’ll understand when to act independently, when to follow up firmly, and when escalation is required.
Studies show that men apply for roles when they meet around 60% of the qualifications, whereas women and other marginalised groups often apply if they meet every requirement. If you believe you’d be a great fit but don’t meet every single criteria, we encourage you to apply.
At Care ADHD, we’re committed to building a diverse and inclusive environment. We encourage applications from candidates of all backgrounds, especially those from historically marginalised communities, as we work together to create a more equitable future.
