Size of company: Under 50 in the London office

Company culture and what makes them great to work for:

The culture is professional, focused and delivery-driven, with a predominantly heads-down working style although there are regular social and celebratory events across the year. The environment is calm, organised and high-standard, suiting individuals who value structure, discretion and getting on with the job.

• Provide high-quality, confidential support to senior executives, including diary management, travel coordination and meeting organisation (no inbox)
• Act as a dependable point of contact, ensuring smooth day-to-day administrative support
• Work closely with another senior EA to ensure seamless cover and continuity
• Organise internal and external events and meetings as required
• Support onboarding processes and general office coordination
• Assist with day-to-day office management, ensuring the office runs efficiently and professionally, looks tidy and there are enough supplies etc.
• Handle ad-hoc administrative tasks and scope to take on more

What background and experience is the company looking for?

• Proven Executive Assistant experience in private equity or financial services at C-suite or similar level
• Strong organisational skills with excellent attention to detail
• Comfortable working in a friendly, respectful but quiet environment with minimal hand-holding
• Reliable, discreet and process-driven in approach
• Calm, resilient and able to manage routine priorities efficiently
• Happy with change as the business is evolving
