• Managing complex global diaries, meetings, travel, and executive priorities.
• Coordinating international travel, client engagements, leadership events, and hospitality.
• Producing polished presentations, reports, and executive communications.
• Building strong relationships with senior stakeholders across the business and globally.
• Driving operational efficiency and continuous improvement.
• Leading and mentoring two Team Assistants.

What We're Looking For

• Significant Executive Assistant experience supporting senior leaders within Investment Banking, Financial Services, or a similarly demanding environment.
• Exceptional organisational skills, attention to detail, and commercial awareness.
• Advanced PowerPoint, Word, and Excel skills.
• Outstanding communication skills and executive presence.
• The ability to remain calm, confident, and solutions-focused under pressure.
• A proactive mindset, sound judgement, and absolute discretion.

Why Join Us?

This is a rare opportunity to work alongside senior leadership in a highly visible role where you'll be trusted, empowered, and valued. You'll be part of a collaborative, international team, gaining exposure to senior decision-making while making a genuine impact on the success of the business.

If you thrive in a fast-moving environment and enjoy being at the heart of the action, we'd love to hear from you.
