Job summary

Oplu Limited is seeking a Search Associate to lead the candidate side of PA, EA and private office searches in London. You will help run the office and ensure smooth administration.

The role offers a hybrid work pattern (three days in the office with a colleague) and a base salary of £38,000 to £42,000 plus a quarterly bonus. We value discretion, precise writing, and the ability to assess candidates who are not actively seeking opportunities.

Qualifications

• Experience as a PA or EA to a senior executive, a Principal or a private office.
• The judgement to tell in one conversation whether someone will cope with a demanding Principal, and the manners to ask the questions that show it.
• Writing that is precise and unhurried. Our profiles go to clients under our name.
• The organisation to keep an office and two Managing Directors on track.
• Discretion as a habit rather than a policy.
• Additional languages are an advantage.
• Recruitment experience is welcome but not required. We will train you in our process.

Responsibilities

• Reporting to the Managing Directors and working alongside our Research Associate in London, you will find and assess the assistants we present to clients.
• That means approaching people who are not looking, interviewing them properly, checking what they tell you, and writing profiles a Principal or their Chief of Staff can rely on.
• You will also run the office and the firm's administration, including diary and travel coordination, contracts, onboarding paperwork, invoicing records and office systems.
• The Managing Directors own every client relationship and decide who is presented. There is no selling in this role and no client management.
