About the Company
We are supporting an innovative, venture-backed startup operating at the intersection of
genomic data, global health, pharmaceuticals, animal health, and agricultural technology.
The company is building a marketplace and brokerage for the exchange of non-human genomic
data, working with organisations and senior stakeholders around the world.
As an early-stage company, the team is small, fast-moving, and highly focused. The founders
regularly interact with senior government, healthcare, scientific, legal, and international
stakeholders, making this a role where discretion, responsiveness, organisation, and sound
judgment are essential.
About the Role
We are looking for a highly reliable and proactive Executive Assistant to provide direct support
to the founders.
This is not a traditional high-volume administrative role. The workload may fluctuate but when
something needs to be handled, it is often time-sensitive and important.
The successful candidate will be someone who can operate independently, understand
priorities, communicate professionally, and handle sensitive information with absolute discretion.
