An EA to CEO plays a pivotal role in any business. They are the right-hand to any CEO, keeping everything running smoothly and simplifying your life.
A good EA to CEO is constantly in demand, and rightfully so. We are the experts at finding executive assistant to CEO positions and who perfectly fit your needs and working style.
We are a boutique recruitment agency and executive assistants to CEOs are one of our most popular placements and some might say our ‘sweet spot’! In these roles, a true partnership is essential. This, of course, extends to us as your recruiter as well.
We interview hundreds of candidates every month and we know what it takes to be the best of the best. We are well networked with the who’s who of senior EAs in Sydney and throughout Australia and know what exceptional looks like!
So don’t waste valuable time trying to recruit your next EA yourself or have your recruitment team try for you! These roles need a recruiter who is networked and who works with discretion. Let us recruit your perfect executive assistant for you.
An EA to CEO focuses their attention solely on supporting the CEO. They make their CEO look and feel fabulous not only by organising their work-life but also acting as a strategic partner. They are motivated by seeing their CEO excel and shine. They are your sounding board for ideas, help with project management and keeping you on track with where you need to be and when. They are also critical to your ability to focus by acting as the go-to person.
We think every CEO needs an EA. Here’s why:
Yes! We love finding EAs on short notice. If you are looking to fill a permanent or temp position, please get in touch.
Salaries for an executive assistant range from $90,000 to $180,000+ per annum (excluding superannuation), and sometimes higher. We are also starting to see more businesses offer benefits that include:
It depends on the salary and package offered.
We offer our full-service recruitment package, where we do it all from writing the job ad to testing, interviewing, selecting candidates.

It all starts with a simple phone call to our lovely EST10 team. We’ll ask you what you are looking for and help you identify which approach is best for you.
Then, if you are looking for a temp ASAP, we’ll start the process right then and there. Or, if you want a long-term placement, we will explain our service offering as outlined in the question above.

This rarely happens!! We are so confident about our executive assistant recruitment process that our guarantees far exceed the industry standards.
If you are not completely delighted with your permanent executive assistant hire within their first three months, we’ll replace the role at no charge.
And if you’re even slightly unhappy with your temp placement within their first eight hours, again we’ll replace them at no cost. That’s no cost for the first temp placement and no cost for the replacement temporary’s first day. (That’s double the industry standard period.)
In short, we are not happy with the placement unless you’re happy about it too.
The role of an EA to CEO is unique and special! Duties are increasing to more senior and strategic requirements and as such, titles are also shifting.
Some other titles used include business manager, business assistant, executive manager and chief of staff.
You will rely on your EA for everything! They will take care of all tasks, operations, strategic initiatives, administration and more!
That means qualities to look for in an EA include:
We know where to find the best EAs for CEOs–pure and simple!
The secret is out that a strong EA is the key to highly successful CEOs. But with demand increasing, it can be time-consuming to find, recruit and retain top CEO EAs.
So, what can you do? Trust us to find the perfect EA to CEO for you.
Some EAs to CEOs do and some don’t. It depends on what you need. With the personal life of CEOs becoming so intertwined with their work, EAs now take on more and more personal tasks. In some cases, CEOs will have an EA and a PA and separate the business and personal tasks accordingly. This is especially true for CEOs who have schedules that are back-to-back and are extremely time-poor.
EAs can also coordinate your home and work calendars. That means you will always make it to the school play on time and remember the special occasions that matter most.
This is our specialty, and it’s how EST10 is different. Finding a candidate who has the right EA admin skills is just the beginning.
Where we excel is by matching your personality and working style to your new EA. We take time to get to know both you and the candidates, so we can find the right person, just for you. We’ll find you someone who matches well with your work style and who’ll increase your productivity right away and add value. And if you like, we can even utilise psychometric testing as a tool in matching for both of you!
We recruit for businesses with locations that range from the Sydney CBD to Parramatta, North Sydney, Ryde, Sutherland Shire, Western Sydney and beyond.
You can also call on us to help you find talent in Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, New Zealand, and London.
