A Career-Defining Opportunity for a High-Performance EA
We are seeking an exceptional Senior Executive Assistant to support the CEO of a fast-growing, founder-led business.
This role is suited to an ambitious, highly driven EA who thrives in a demanding, high-performance environment and takes pride in flawless execution. The CEO is highly successful, deeply engaged and exceptionally detail-oriented. He values people who anticipate needs, remove friction and deliver consistently at an outstanding standard.
This role is about exceptional execution, professional judgment and creating leverage for a CEO operating at pace. It is not a strategic Chief-of-Staff position.
Key Responsibilities
- Complex executive support and external diary management
- Extensive global travel coordination across multiple time zones
- Acting as a polished ambassador for the CEO with clients, investors and board members
- Preparation of meeting materials, briefings and executive communications
- Leadership of two Executive Assistants supporting the wider executive team
- Coordination of executive meetings, events and leadership workshops
- Management of personal and business priorities where required

- At least 3 years' experience gained within a UK-based technology business, scale-up or high-growth tech environment
- Proven experience supporting an ambitious founder or CEO in a fast-paced, rapidly changing business
- Experience managing or mentoring Executive Assistants or administrative teams
- Outstanding stakeholder management skills with confidence engaging investors, clients and board members
- Exceptional attention to detail and organisational skills
- A proactive, solutions-focused approach and ability to operate with minimal direction
- Demonstrable stability and progression within previous roles
Culture & Expectations
This role will appeal to a very specific type of Executive Assistant.
The CEO manages his own priorities and strategic agenda. What he requires is an EA who can execute decisions with precision, anticipate issues before they arise and maintain exceptionally high standards without constant oversight.
Trust is built through consistency, reliability and getting things right the first time.
The successful candidate will be energised by pace, complexity and accountability. They will take genuine satisfaction from delivering excellence and operating at the highest level of the profession.
