To leverage technology to help Australians move from financial stress and anxiety to a place of confidence and empowerment. Want to join us? We'd love to hear from you!

Hi, I'm Xavier 👋 I need your help. My incredibly talented EA (Jess) is having another baby and, for the coming year, has chosen to lavish her attention on her newborn instead of me. I’m part of the executive team at Bendigo Bank , responsible for Digital across the group (Chief Digital Officer), as well as being CEO for Up .

I can’t manage that alone. Jess does a lot for me, but at a high level she helps with: Showing up at the right time, with the right prep, to a variety of board and committee meetings. Remembering my random asides to structure and schedule them into agendas for my team meetings.

Reminding me that if I say yes to everyone who wants to talk with me, I don’t get a lunch break. Organising team and divisional social events. Being the resident expert on our new invoicing system.

Managing across two different calendar systems (Outlook and Google Calendar), which, to be honest, is kind of a nightmare. And a thousand other little things. Jess says that I’m “accessible and easy to communicate with”, which is awfully kind of her.

I’m sure we’ve got a proper JD around here somewhere, but you can guess what it says. This is a 12-month fixed-term role beginning October 2026, mostly onsite in Melbourne CBD. Full-time, but we can discuss part-time with the right candidate; ideally you'll be in the office with me and the team three days per week.

We'll work together well if you combine relentless organisational skill with the ability to make it look effortless. Prior EA experience is necessary; ideally you'll have worked with C-suite executives at a fintech or other public company. What to expect Our process is pretty simple: A chat with Jess via Google Meet (20 min) A meeting with Jess and Loz (our Head of P C) at our office (60 min) Coffee with me Offer!

#LI-Hybrid Estimated salary range $110,000 $130,000 AUD Working at Ferocia We have a hybrid work culture where people can attend the Ferocia office as much or as little as makes sense for them.

Perks (Rooftop, Gym And Personal Trainer, Games…)

Budget for personal development, training, and conferences Employee Assistance Program Home loan rebates for our loans (conditions apply) Ongoing equity grants (conditions apply) Not quite ticking every box? Throw your hat in the ring anyway! At Ferocia, we're all about shaking things up and rewriting the rules.

We thrive on diversity and inclusion, and we wholeheartedly encourage you to step up and shine.
