Founder's Assistant + Extensive International Travel - £40k-£45k + bonus + all travel expenses covered
This is not your average support role!
A highly successful British entrepreneur, based internationally, is looking for a Founder's Assistant; a sharp, ambitious right-hand who wants to be at the centre of the action.
You'll travel extensively with the team across Europe, EMEA and North America (staying in premium accommodation when travelling) and work directly on fast-growing ventures spanning FinTech, PropTech, wealth management, AI and precious metals.
One day you could be building an AI-powered website or a financial model, the next you'll be researching an investment, liaising with family offices or helping launch a stealth startup. If that excites you rather than exhausts you, keep reading.
Key responsibilities as the Founder’s Assistant:
- Providing trusted business (and occasional personal) support to the founder
- Travelling internationally with the team on a regular basis
- Managing fast-moving diaries, priorities and projects
- Liaising with investors, senior management, lawyers, accountants and family offices
- Building websites, marketing content and financial models using AI tools
- Researching investment opportunities and helping execute ideas at speed
- Handling highly confidential information with total discretion
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.
