Executive Assistant to Founder — London (onsite)
We're recruiting on behalf of our client: a founder running a family office alongside a growing demi-fine jewellery brand.
This is a genuinely varied role. No two days look the same, and the person in this seat needs to be comfortable with that — not just say they are at interview. You'll be the first point of contact for the founder's diary, inbox and day-to-day operations across both businesses, working closely with senior team members.
What you'll be doing
- Managing a complex, constantly shifting calendar across several time zones
- Acting as gatekeeper and first responder for emails, calls and messages, triaging what needs attention now and what can wait
- Coordinating travel, logistics and meetings, often at short notice
- Liaising with the wider team to keep things moving without needing everything spelled out
- Handling business and personal admin — this is a founder role, not a 9-to-5 corporate one
- Preparing briefing notes, documents and correspondence
- Managing confidential information with discretion
- Anticipating what's needed before being asked
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What we're looking for
- Proven EA or PA experience supporting a senior executive or founder, ideally somewhere fast-paced or entrepreneurial
- Fast, reliable responsiveness, including outside standard hours when something is genuinely time-sensitive. This one is non-negotiable and we'd rather discuss it honestly upfront
- Excellent written and verbal communication
- High discretion and sound judgement
- Comfortable working across a family office and an operating business at once
- Proactive rather than reactive
- Strong organisational skills and calm under pressure
- Based in or able to commute easily to London
