An innovative, fast-growing tech start-up in the education sector is seeking an exceptional Executive Assistant to support the Founder. This is a rare opportunity to join a dynamic, entrepreneurial environment where no two days are the same – and where your input will genuinely make an impact. The Founder is dynamic and detail-oriented, seeking an emotionally intelligent, highly capable EA who can act as a true right hand – someone equally comfortable in high-level board meetings as arranging exclusive reservations across Europe. You will manage a fast-paced, ever-changing schedule, ensure the Founder’s day runs seamlessly, and act as a trusted gatekeeper and sounding board. This role is ideal for a strategic and proactive EA who thrives in a fluid environment, relishes variety, and enjoys working across both business and personal (approximately 50% business, 50% personal).

Key Responsibilities

\n\t
• Own and orchestrate complex, global scheduling – ensuring meetings, flights, and engagements run smoothly
\n\t
• Take full charge of email management, prioritising, flagging, and actioning key communications with precision
\n\t
• Represent the Founder with confidence, liaising effortlessly with senior clients and stakeholders
\n\t
• Anticipate needs, spot potential challenges early, and keep operations – both business and personal – running smoothly
\n\t
• Partner closely with the Founder to streamline the day, support decision-making, and help turn bold ideas into action
\n

About You

\n\t
• Proven experience supporting a Founder or C-suite executive in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial setting
\n\t
• Fluent or conversational Spanish is advantageous, though not essential
\n\t
• Emotionally intelligent, adaptable, and unflappable under pressure
\n\t
• Confident taking initiative and comfortable knowing when to push back
\n\t
• Discreet and professional – trusted to handle confidential matters with care
\n\t
• Willing to go the extra mile and offer flexibility, including out-of-hours support

If you are looking to join a forward-thinking tech start-up at a pivotal moment of growth, this is the perfect role. You will work closely with the Founder, gain insight into high-level strategy, and have the autonomy to shape your role as the company scales.  Please note, due the immediate need this is a temporary to permanent opportunity.
