We’re on the hunt for a first class Executive Assistant to support the Chief Operating Officer of a leading UK finance house. He’s sharp, funny, and genuinely great to work with — however his diary is a high-speed rollercoaster of meetings, travel, and strategic priorities, and he needs someone who can keep up, stay ahead, and make it all look effortless.

What You’ll Be Doing:

• Masterfully managing a back-to-back diary with precision and foresight
• Coordinating UK and occasional international travel, including itineraries, logistics, and last-minute pivots
• Prepare and follow up on EXCO meeting to include Board Meetings
• Acting as a gatekeeper, sounding board, and trusted right hand
• Handling confidential communications and documents with discretion
• Supporting when needed — flexibility is key, although long hours in the office are no require
• Collaborating with internal teams and external stakeholders with professionalism and charm

What You’ll Bring:

• Proven experience supporting senior executives in high-pressure environments
• Impeccable organisational skills and attention to detail
• Board level eexperience
• A calm, proactive approach — especially when things get hectic
• Tech-savvy with Outlook, Teams, and travel platforms
• Willingness to be in the office upto 4 days a week to keep things running smoothly, but generally 3 days

Why This Role?

You’ll be at the heart of a respected finance house, working alongside top-tier professionals and making a real impact. The COO is a whirlwind of ideas and action — and you’ll be the one who brings order to the chaos. It’s demanding, yes, but also incredibly rewarding.
