Executive Assistant (12 Month FTC)

Private Equity
Up to £80k + bonus + benefits
West End, London
Fully office-based

About the Company

A leading international private equity firm with a collaborative and high-performing culture. The London office offers a professional yet supportive environment, where teamwork, development, and long-term relationships are highly valued.

About the Role

This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced Executive Assistant to join a busy Capital Markets team on a 12-month fixed-term contract. Supporting a small team of senior investment professionals, you will provide seamless day-to-day support within a fast-paced environment. The role is heavily focused on complex diary management, alongside travel coordination and wider administrative support.

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.
