You’ll have exposure to senior VPs across Europe, APAC, and America, working in a role where your contribution will be both visible and valued.

This role requires someone who is proactive, adaptable, and eager to learn. You’ll be managing busy schedules, prioritising across competing demands, and coordinating complex travel arrangements—all while acting as a trusted first point of contact.

You would have gained at least 3 - 5 years as an assistant in the investment sector.

• Supporting senior stakeholders, VPs and MDs with administrative and operational needs
• Ensuring seamless communication and workflow across the executive team

What we’re looking for

• A minimum of 3 years’ experience as an Assistant within investment banking, private equity, asset management, or professional services
• Strong organisational skills, with the ability to manage shifting priorities in a fast-paced environment
• Confidence in working with senior leadership and handling competing demands
• Discretion, professionalism, and a proactive, can-do mindset

This is a 6-month assignment (with potential to extend an additional 6 months and scope for further opportunities within the firm if you impress). The role is 5 days in the office.

Rate: £26 inclusive of holiday pay

If you’re an Assistant who is ready to bring energy, precision, and ambition to every day, this is the opportunity to take your career to the next level.
