The Company

A highly regarded investment management firm with an entrepreneurial, high-performing culture. This is an opportunity to join a respected investment team in a business that values excellence, collaboration and long-term relationships.

The Role

We are seeking an experienced Executive Assistant to provide proactive support to four senior stakeholders within the investment team.

This is a true business-partnering role where you will become a trusted right hand, managing priorities, protecting time and ensuring the smooth running of day-to-day activities. Success in the role requires strong judgement, adaptability and the ability to anticipate needs before they arise.

You will collaborate with individuals who have different working styles and priorities, so emotional intelligence, flexibility and the confidence to challenge where appropriate are essential.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

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.
