We're on a mission to be a Force For Good, through our People, Products and Purpose at Nuix. Nuix is one of the greatest comeback Technology success stories in Australia, and we're making massive waves each day. Nuix is, and will be, a pioneer in the Australian Technology space, and we're carrying the torch on what "good" looks like.
This extends to our People. We're fiercely passionate, love working at pace, thrive in ambiguity, live, and breathe outside of the box, and above all are good humans. Our impact extends outside of our 9-5, and our place in society isn't always defined by corporate metrics. We're determined to make a positive difference in the world, whether through our solutions which help the top companies, governments and agencies find the truth and combat illegal activities, or through our people who care about contributing and giving back both within, and outside, of Nuix. We are a Force For Good.
We're selective about who comes on board, and you should be too. But if the above sounds like a match, get in touch today and get ready for the possibility of starting a once-in-a-career journey.
The Executive Assistant to the CEO is a critical role at the centre of Nuix’s most senior executive relationship. This is not a traditional administrative role - it is an executive function in its own right. The person who holds it operates as a trusted extension of the CEO, managing the rhythm of the business at the executive level and ensuring the CEO can operate at full effectiveness.
The role carries a meaningful Board coordination remit alongside CEO support. This is not peripheral - it is a core part of the job. The EA is the operational hub connecting the CEO, the Board Chair, Non-Executive Directors and the Company Secretary. They ensure the Board cycle runs with precision: scheduling, logistics, materials, travel and the day-to-day administrative mechanics that underpin good governance.
The role requires someone who can read the room, anticipate what is needed before it is asked, manage competing priorities without losing composure, and navigate the political complexity of a listed company environment with discretion and maturity.
As Nuix continues to execute against its transformation agenda, the EA to the CEO will play a supporting role in keeping the ELT connected, the Board cycle on track, and the executive function operating effectively.
The role will be base in our Sydney CBD offices 5 days per week.
Executive Support - CEO
Prepare the CEO for every engagement - briefing notes, pre-reads, talking points, and context - so they walk in ready.
Draft, review and triage correspondence on behalf of the CEO, exercising sound judgement on what requires attention, what can be resolved, and what can be delegated.
Coordinate domestic and international travel, including detailed itineraries, logistics, visa requirements and ground arrangements.
This is a substantive part of the role. The EA is the primary administrative and logistical support for the Board, working closely with the Company Secretary and the Board Chair’s office.
Coordinate all Board and committee meeting logistics end-to-end: scheduling, venue, catering, technology setup, and travel arrangements for Non-Executive Directors.
Executive Team Coordination
Coordinate the ELT meeting cycle - scheduling, agenda management, pre-read distribution, action tracking and follow-through.
Support key leadership events - offsites, all-hands, SKO - as required, in partnership with P&C and Events.
