Executive Assistant to Founder
Location: London
Working pattern: Full-time, predominantly office-based
Travel: Occasional travel may be required
The opportunity
We are recruiting an exceptional Executive Assistant to support an entrepreneurial Founder across a portfolio of businesses, investments, and personal interests.
This is a trusted, high-impact position for someone who enjoys bringing structure to a fast-moving environment. Priorities can change quickly, plans will sometimes move at short notice, and no two days will be quite the same.
Working closely with the Founder and senior team members, you will take ownership of the diary, communications, travel, and day-to-day coordination that keep everything moving. You will need to anticipate what is coming, exercise sound judgement, and resolve issues without waiting for every step to be explained.
This is not a conventional corporate EA position with a narrow or rigid remit. It offers considerable variety, responsibility, and access for someone who genuinely enjoys operating at the center of a founder-led environment.
What you’ll be doing
- Managing a complex and frequently changing calendar across business and personal commitments
- Coordinating meetings across multiple international time zones
- Acting as the first point of contact for emails, calls, and messages
- Assessing what requires the Founder’s immediate attention and what can be handled independently
- Arranging domestic and international travel, including detailed itineraries and last-minute changes
- Liaising with senior colleagues, advisers, business partners, and external contacts
- Keeping track of priorities, actions, and follow-ups to ensure nothing is missed
- Handling a varied mixture of business and personal administration
- Preparing briefing notes, correspondence, presentations, and other documents
- Managing sensitive and confidential information with absolute discretion
- Identifying potential problems and resolving them before they reach the Founder
- Creating greater structure and efficiency around the Founder’s working life

An important point about responsiveness
Occasionally, genuinely time-sensitive matters will arise outside standard working hours. Reliable responsiveness in those situations is essential and will be discussed openly during the interview process.
This role will therefore suit someone who understands the realities of supporting an active Founder and is comfortable balancing flexibility with good judgement.
Why consider this opportunity?
- You will be working closely with the principal rather than operating through layers of management.
- The position offers considerable trust, autonomy, and variety, together with the opportunity to become an integral part of a growing entrepreneurial organization.
- It would particularly suit an accomplished EA who enjoys being relied upon, likes creating order from complexity, and wants a role in which their contribution will be noticed and valued.
