Overview
Executive Assistant (to Founder) Jobs in Leeds, England, United Kingdom at GET BAKED®
WE'RE HIRING: EXECUTIVE ASSISTANT (EA)
📍 Leeds | Full-time | Competitive Salary (Up to £40,000 per annum based on experience) + Benefits
We’re looking for an exceptional Executive Assistant to work directly with both the Founder and Managing Director of GET BAKED.
You will be at the centre of the business — helping organise, prioritise, and execute across everything from product launches and content shoots to supplier conversations, internal projects, and general chaos management.
You’ll work most closely with the Founder (day-to-day), while also supporting the MD on key operational and strategic priorities. If you like structure, predictability, and a quiet life — this is not for you. If you like fast-moving, slightly chaotic, high-growth environments where no two days look the same — you’ll thrive.
What You’ll Be Doing:
Founder Support (Primary Focus)
• Managing an ever-changing diary, ensuring time is used properly (and not wasted)
• Acting as a gatekeeper — filtering noise, prioritising what matters
• Supporting with content planning, filming days, and creative projects
• Organising meetings, site visits, and external collaborations
• Keeping projects moving — chasing people, following up, making things happen
• Turning ideas into action (and occasionally telling the Founder “no”)
MD Support (Secondary)
• Assisting with scheduling, meetings, and internal coordination
• Supporting key business projects and deadlines
• Helping keep operational priorities on track
General Business Support
• Coordinating across teams (bakery, stores, warehouse, media)
• Supporting launches, campaigns, and internal initiatives
• Handling sensitive information with total discretion
• Bringing order to fast-moving, messy situations
What We’re Looking For:
• Highly organised — borderline obsessive about it
• Calm under pressure (even when everything is on fire)
• Excellent communicator — clear, direct, and confident
• Proactive — you don’t wait to be told what to do
• Commercially aware — you understand what matters in a growing business
• Thick-skinned — able to handle direct feedback and fast pace
• Trustworthy — you’ll be exposed to everything
Bonus points if you:
• Have worked in a high-growth startup or founder-led business
• Have experience supporting a founder or senior leadership team
• Understand content, social media, or creative production environments
What This Role Is (and Isn’t):
This is:
• A high-impact role with real responsibility
• A front-row seat to how a fast-growing brand operates
• An opportunity to grow quickly with the business
This isn’t:
• A passive admin job
• A 9–5 where you switch off completely
• A role for someone who needs constant direction
Why GET BAKED?
We’re not a typical bakery. We’re building a brand with a cult following, a strong point of view, and big ambitions. You’ll be working directly with the people driving that — not sitting on the sidelines.
Salary & Benefits:
• Competitive salary (based on experience – up to £40,000 per annum)
• Staff perks (50% off all products in store and online)
• Opportunity to grow with the business
Qualifications and Experience:
Minimum of at least 5 years experience in a similar role acting as an EA or PA for a growing business is essential — please don’t apply if you don’t fit this criteria. Positive references will also be sought and be necessary to be successful in the role.
