{ “@context”: “http://schema.org”, “@type”: “JobPosting”, “title”: “Executive Assistant – maternity cover”, “description”: “

We’re looking for an experienced Executive Assistant to join Lockton on a maternity cover, supporting two Senior Partners within our Retail broking business.


This is a role built on trust, partnership and integrity. You’ll act as a true extension of the leaders you support — bringing judgement, discretion and a proactive approach to everything you do.


At Lockton, relationships matter. You’ll work closely with senior leaders, clients and colleagues across the business, helping to create a seamless and professional experience in a fast-paced, collaborative environment.


What you’ll be doing

  • Managing complex diaries and priorities, ensuring leaders can focus on what matters most
  • Acting as a trusted point of contact for internal and external stakeholders
  • Coordinating client meetings, travel and key business activities
  • Supporting the rhythm of the business — from leadership meetings to client engagement
  • Anticipating needs, solving problems and keeping things running smoothly


What we’re looking for

  • Experience supporting senior leaders in a fast-paced, professional environment
  • Strong organisational skills and attention to detail
  • A proactive, solutions-focused mindset
  • Confidence working with senior stakeholders and clients
  • High levels of discretion, integrity and professionalism


Why Lockton

Lockton is built differently — privately owned, people-focused and committed to doing the right thing for clients and colleagues. You’ll be part of a business where partnership, trust and long-term relationships sit at the heart of everything we do.


This is a twelve month maternity cover with expectations of a minimum 3 days a week in the office and a mid June start date to allow a thorough handover with the incumbent EA.
