Temporary Receptionist, Private Equity

Are you a positive individual, with an industrial, can-do attitude?

ISE Partners are looking for strong 'career temps' to join our growing temporary pool of best-in-class receptionists. Our clients span leading Private Equity / Venture Capital firms, to global Executive Search firms, through to some of the most forward-thinking technology firms - all leaders in their field.

If you're seeking a job that provides flexibility and additional earnings while you focus on your passion, such as acting, setting up your own business, or other interests; or work around another role - temporary employment is an excellent choice.

These roles can vary in duration from a few days to several weeks or even several months, offering the chance for the stability and perks of a full-time position with a considerable degree of flexibility.

Unlike other agencies, ISE Partners also offer fabulous benefits for our temps:

  • Full access to our EAP scheme, with a 24/7 support line, lots of online material, and face-to-face appointments available
  • The option to join an incredibly successful share scheme, with employer contributions, following 1 year's consistent work on ISE's books
  • Regular events offering the opportunity to upskill, and network with people in a similar position
  • Christmas & Easter gifts, as well as awards and recognition throughout the year

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.

Only hits

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

The roles often offer:

  • Competitive hourly rates, starting from £14ph, to upwards of £20ph for someone with considerable experience in Private Equity
  • Holiday pay accrued, in addition, by the hour
  • Amazing breakfasts, lunches, and snacks provided by many clients

The perfect temporary receptionist should exude a friendly and approachable demeanour, possess excellent customer service skills (you should be able to speak to a proven track record in this area), and demonstrate strong verbal and written communication abilities.

You'll be operating within the high-energy, fast-paced settings of some of London's premier professional firms, so prior experience in a similar corporate environment would be highly advantageous.
