Job description

We’re a leading business management solution with a core purpose: helping more businesses in Australia and New Zealand start, survive and succeed.

At MYOB, we believe what’s good for one business is good for all business—and for all of us. Whether you support them, work for them, or dream of building your own, when businesses run smoothly, everybody feels it. Owners, employees, customers, suppliers—even families. That’s why we’re here: to give every person in business the tools they need to focus on what really matters and do Big Things—whatever big looks like for them.

And for you? Joining MYOB means being part of that impact. It means using your skills to help businesses thrive, shaping the future of work, and growing alongside the people and communities we support. Because while we’re the business of software, we’re really in the business of people. And that makes MYOB Everyone’s Business.

About the role

This is not a traditional Executive Assistant role, as the EA to the Executive General Manager, Mid-Market, you'll be the operating engine behind the business. Partnering closely with the EGM and leadership team, you'll help keep the business running at pace, driving alignment, accountability and execution across the division.

From managing leadership rhythms and business priorities to planning engagement initiatives and introducing AI-powered ways of working, you'll play a key role in how the business operates. While calendar, inbox and travel management remain part of the role, you'll spend most of your time orchestrating business operations, improving processes and enabling leaders to focus on customers, people and strategy.

Own and coordinate the operating rhythm of the Mid-Market business, including leadership meetings, business reviews, planning cycles and strategic priorities
Track decisions, actions and commitments, ensuring accountability and follow-through across the leadership team
Partner with People Experience and Operations to support compliance, performance cycles, engagement initiatives and onboarding activities

Build and optimise AI-enabled workflows and automations that improve meeting preparation, reporting, action tracking and business coordination
Provide high-quality executive support including calendar, inbox, travel and expense management for the EGM
Prepare executive communications, presentations, briefings and reporting materials that help leaders make informed decisions

What you’ll bring

Experience supporting senior executives in a complex, fast-paced environment, ideally in roles with broad operational ownership
Demonstrated experience running business rhythms, governance processes, leadership forums or strategic projects, not just coordinating them
Strong organisational and project coordination skills, with the ability to manage competing priorities and drive outcomes to completion
Experience planning and delivering engagement initiatives, events or programs that bring teams together and create meaningful employee experiences
Hands-on experience using AI tools such as Microsoft Copilot, Power Automate, Claude or similar to improve the way work gets done
Confidence influencing stakeholders, following up on commitments and constructively challenging senior leaders when required
High levels of judgement, discretion and professionalism when handling sensitive commercial and people information
