Job description

A highly regarded and successful Investment Firm and Family Office is seeking a dedicated and emotionally intelligent Executive Assistant to support their CEO across both professional and personal domains. This is not just an EA role, it’s a trusted partnership at the heart of a warm, collaborative environment where discretion, loyalty, and emotional maturity are paramount.

You will be supporting a soft-spoken, thoughtful CEO who is a hands-on family man and devoted father of four. Balancing a wide range of global business interests with family priorities, he leads with integrity, kindness, and quiet confidence. Your role will be to help ensure everything around him runs seamlessly, whether that’s managing complex travel, coordinating with household staff, or helping juggle personal and professional schedules.

You’ll be based in beautiful offices and become an integral part of a tight-knit family office team of around 10 people, where everyone supports one another and no task is too big or too small. This is a truly varied position requiring a calm, proactive, and diplomatic approach. You’ll need to be highly organized, flexible, and ready to “muck in” where needed.

The family’s interests span multiple properties and international investments, requiring a high level of coordination and global awareness. This role would suit someone who thrives in a discreet, fast-paced, and dynamic environment, with a genuine desire to make a difference in the lives of those they support.
