About the Role
The VA Hub is looking for an experienced and highly capable Virtual Executive Assistant to support the Founder and CEO of a London-based investment firm.
Previous experience working within the finance sector is essential. We are particularly interested in candidates who have supported senior executives within investment management, hedge funds, private equity, asset management, or a similarly fast-paced financial-services environment.
This is a fantastic opportunity for a senior EA who is confident supporting at founder or C-suite level, works brilliantly within structured digital systems, and understands the discretion, responsiveness, and judgement required in a fast-paced, confidential environment.
The hours will vary depending on the client’s requirements, typically between 5 and 20 hours per week, so the successful candidate must have genuine flexibility and enough capacity to accommodate changing priorities.
Key Responsibilities
- Complex diary and meeting management
- Managing and triaging a delegated executive inbox
- Drafting emails and correspondence
- Coordinating domestic and international travel
- Creating, managing, and following up tasks
- Monitoring deadlines, actions, and outstanding requests
- Preparing meeting information and supporting documents
- Liaising professionally with internal and external stakeholders
- Tracking time and work completed accurately
- Providing clear progress updates
- Supporting wider executive and administrative priorities as required
