Team Assistant

Directure is an international management consulting firm devoted to advising and assisting organisations within life science, healthcare and other regulated industries, to realise their strategy aspirations. We operate through an integrated approach to consulting, combining best practice standards and disciplines of Management Consulting, International Search and People Resource Consulting. Today, Directure advises a variety of companies that seek guidance and counselling on business and senior leadership needs with an increasing access to executives around the world. We combine the in-depth expertise of an international advisor with the focus and flexibility of a boutique consulting firm that has put impact above size. Team Assistant The Role Directure's consultants run complex, multi-client advisory practices. They need someone close — someone who keeps the operational side running with precision while also contributing to the polished outputs clients receive. The role is onsite and sits at the intersection of those characteristics. You will own the administrative infrastructure that keeps consultants effective — diary management, travel, planning, correspondence — and you will contribute directly to client deliverables: communications, reports and advanced PowerPoint presentations built to a consulting standard. Responsibilities Two distinct, equally important areas of work Administration & Coordination

• Own and manage complex partner and consultant diaries — scheduling, sequencing, and protecting time for deep work
• Plan and coordinate all travel: flights, accommodation, ground logistics, and changes in the field
• Prepare meeting agendas, briefing notes, and follow-up actions; manage correspondence independently where appropriate
• Track project timelines, upcoming milestones, and internal team deadlines across active engagements
• Administrative coordination with Finance.
• Maintain organised filing systems and document libraries for ongoing project matters
• Build and maintain advanced PowerPoint presentations — slide logic, visual hierarchy, data visualisation — to a standard appropriate for senior client audiences. Assist in preparing pitch materials, proposals, and thought-leadership content
• Quality-check outputs before client delivery: language, consistency, and visual finish

What We're Looking For Skills, background, and ways of working

• An academic degree and + 2 years of FTE experience in a professional services, consulting, corporate, or equivalent environment — you understand what high-standard output looks like
• Strong PowerPoint skills are essential: you can build a structured, visually coherent presentation from a brief, not just populate a template
• Organised in a way that holds under pressure: priorities shift, deadlines accelerate, and you adapt without dropping things
• Excellent written communication in English – native or proficiency; your drafts need minimal editing before they go out
• Proficiency in Microsoft 365 and quick to learn tools you haven't used before
• Discreet and professional in your handling of sensitive information; you understand what confidentiality means in a client-facing environment
• Curious about the work itself — you want to understand the engagements you're supporting, not just manage the calendar around them
