Senior Executive Assistant - Private Capital / Strategic Growth

I'm looking for a polished, proactive Executive Assistant to support a Managing Director within a global strategic growth team operating across Private Equity, Venture Capital and Sovereign Wealth relationships.

The Offer:

  • Competitive salary of £68,000pa
  • Role to start on an 8-month contract
  • Hybrid working: 2-3 days on site in London office

This is a high-trust EA role for someone who has supported senior leaders in a fast-moving, international environment and knows how to keep complex priorities moving without noise. You'll manage a demanding diary, global travel, leadership meetings, briefing materials, stakeholder coordination and confidential executive 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.
