We're REA
With bold and ambitious goals, REA Group is changing the way the world experiences property. No matter where you're at on your property journey, we're here to help with every step - whether that's finding or financing your next home.
Our people are the key to our success. At the heart of everything we do, is a thriving culture centred around high performance and care. We are purpose driven and collaborative, which drives innovation and our ability to make a real impact. As such, we’re proud to have been named in Australia’s “Top 5” Best Workplaces two years in a row, as well as being recognised as a Best Workplace for Women.
Where the team fits in
The Executive Assistant sits within the Global Technology team, headed up by the Chief Technology Officer. The Global Tech team is comprised of Group Security, Enterprise Technology, Launchpad, Architecture, Tech Learning & Development and Cyber City.
The Global Technology mission is to create the #1 Tech Company in Australia, and this role is critical to realising that vision by optimising all aspects of the leadership team’s time to support our rapid growth and ambition.
What the role is all about
This is no ordinary EA role. Our Executive Leadership team are dynamic, innovative, agile-minded and know how to have fun, so we’re looking for EAs that can stay ahead of them! You’ll have all the usual responsibilities to ensure your Executive can be more efficient & effective in leading their team and achieving their business objectives:
An operational extraordinaire! This is all about enhancing Executive & leadership team productivity. From full diary management to complicated travel bookings, meeting preparation to reporting, juggling priorities to negotiating changes, preparing correspondence to project management, you’re all over it, keeping your Executive on time, on budget and on track with their key deliverables. Did we mention they like to travel and attend conferences and events? So anticipating travel needs and keeping them productive when they’re on the go is critical
An events, meetings and projects planner! Whether it’s internal or external, small or large, long term or short term, domestic or international, there’s always something to be organised. Team meetings are standard but anything else is possible
A technology guru! Guru might be a stretch, but you’ll need to know how to connect an international video conference with multiple locations, get the Executive’s laptop back up and running when it won’t cooperate, and navigate the expense system, or at least know who to ask for help to get the IT stuff done
Communication! You’ll be communicating with everyone, verbally and in writing, including drafting correspondence and preparing complex reports. You’ll know how to be discreet and maintain confidentiality when it comes to handling sensitive information
One team! You’re an experienced EA, so you know what happens to your Executive when you take leave. Having a buddy system and covering for other EAs is part of the deal here too
Who we’re looking for
Someone with more than a few runs on the board – minimum of 5 years experience in an EA role including liaising across C-suite Executives and their teams, bonus points if a CTO but not necessary
Experience in Sales, Marketing or Digital Media would be awesome
Events and project management experience is also desirable
Someone who looks at tricky situations through a solutions-focused lens
Experience in a similar ASX listed company
Someone who works productively in a fast paced and agile environment - #gsd (urban dictionary will help on this one!)
The REA experience
The physical, mental, emotional and financial health of our people is something we’ll never stop caring about. This is a place to learn and grow.
Some of our Perks & Benefits include:
A hybrid and flexible approach to working
Flexible leave options including, birthday leave and purchase additional leave
Flexible parental leave offering for primary and secondary carers
Our Because We Care program offers employees volunteering leave, community grants, matched payroll giving and our Community Café donates 100% of revenue to charity

Our commitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
We are committed to providing a working environment that embraces and values diversity, equity and inclusion. We believe teams with diverse ideas and experiences are more creative, more effective and fuel disruptive thinking.
