36 current executive assistant openings in Manchester, aggregated from public boards and linking straight to the employer's own posting. 24 employers are hiring across this list right now.
Working as a executive assistant in Manchester
The strongest UK market outside London, with real depth in digital, media and a growing engineering scene. Salaries run roughly 15-25% below London while housing runs far below it, which is why the net position often favours Manchester.
Most of the hiring in this list clusters around Spinningfields, Ancoats and MediaCity. Location on a posting is not always literal — check whether a role is genuinely on site, and whether "remote" means remote within the country or remote from anywhere, because the two are priced differently.

Executive Assistant pay and hiring, asked properly
What salary can an executive assistant expect?
In India, roughly 4–10 LPA supporting senior management and 12–20 LPA at C-suite level in large firms. The US band is about $60,000–$100,000, higher in finance and technology, the UK £30,000–£55,000. Who you support moves this far more than years of experience do.
Is the role at risk from automation?
Scheduling and inbox triage are being compressed by tooling. Judgement is not — deciding what reaches the executive, handling a conflict between two priorities, and knowing what to escalate. The roles that have disappeared are the diary-only ones; the ones that grew are closer to chief of staff.
What gets you shortlisted?
Evidence of discretion and of managing complexity, not a list of software. Supporting three executives across time zones, running a board meeting cycle, or handling confidential matters without incident are the things that matter — and they are what to lead with rather than proficiency in a calendar tool.
