Overview
Executive Team Assistant – Investment Management
We are delighted to be searching for an Executive Team Assistant with exceptional EA and research abilities to join a collaborative and non-hierarchical investment management firm based in central London. This medium-sized, approachable organisation is set in a village-like pocket of The West End, well connected by transport, and known for its warm culture.
This opportunity would suit a proactive, confident yet grounded professional who thrives in demanding environments, providing seamless support to both analysts and highly driven individuals requiring first-class EA and wider team administration.
You should bring 5–8 years’ experience in corporate administration, ideally within investment management, investment banking, or consulting. Expect a varied role involving classic EA tasks not limited to but including complex international diary management, global travel arrangements, expense reconciliation, event planning, conference registrations, and offsite logistics. You will directly support three senior leaders, enabling them to maximise their productivity and business impact, while also contributing to project research and ensuring the smooth running of the wider team.
The culture here calls for someone with humour, resilience, and the emotional intelligence to know when to step in or push back.
