This is an exceptional opportunity for an Executive Assistant looking to move beyond traditional support. Working alongside Portfolio Managers and Research Analysts, you'll become a trusted business partner whilst gaining valuable exposure to Corporate Access, investor engagement and the commercial side of a leading investment business.
Initially offered on a temporary basis, the role has genuine long-term potential, with the intention of converting a successful individual into a permanent member of the team.

The Role
- Providing Executive Assistant support to Portfolio Managers, Research Analysts and senior investment professionals within a fast-paced front-office environment.
- Becoming a trusted partner to the investment team, anticipating priorities and ensuring executives can focus on investment activity and client relationships.
- Managing highly complex diaries across multiple stakeholders and time zones.
- Coordinating extensive domestic and international travel, including detailed itineraries and logistics.
- Organising internal and external meetings, conference calls and video meetings.
- Supporting the coordination of investor meetings, roadshows, conferences and wider Corporate Access activity.
- Liaising with brokers, listed companies and internal stakeholders to facilitate meeting coordination.
- Processing expenses and providing seamless day-to-day administrative support.
- Assisting with team projects, events and operational initiatives.
- Identifying opportunities to improve processes and enhance team efficiency.
