This is an exceptional opportunity to become a true business partner to Portfolio Managers and Research Analysts, playing a key role within a fast-paced investment environment.

In return, you'll join a collaborative, high-performing team where you'll be given the autonomy to make a real impact.
The Role
- Provide Executive Assistant support to Portfolio Managers, Research Analysts, and senior investment professionals within a busy front-office environment.
- Build trusted relationships with the investment team, anticipating priorities and enabling executives to focus on investment decisions and client engagement.

- Coordinate extensive domestic and international travel, producing detailed itineraries and managing all associated logistics.
- Organise internal and external meetings, conference calls, and video meetings.
- Coordinate investor meetings, roadshows, conferences, and wider Corporate Access activity.
- Liaise with brokers, listed companies, and internal stakeholders to ensure the seamless coordination of meetings and events.
- Process expenses and provide proactive day-to-day administrative support.
- Assist with team projects, events, and operational initiatives.
- Identify opportunities to improve processes, enhance efficiency, and support the wider success of the team.
