Robert Half is exclusively partnering with a highly regarded, founder-led strategic advisory boutique to appoint an exceptional Senior Executive Assistant.

This is a true right-hand opportunity supporting a brilliant, high-performing Founder operating at the sharp end of deal-making, growth strategy, and investor advisory across media, tech, consumer, and creative sectors.

The environment is fast, intelligent, relationship-driven, and high trust. You will be embedded at the centre of decision-making.

You will act as a strategic partner, not just diary support.

This role requires full ownership of the Founder's time, priorities, and output - ensuring everything runs seamlessly across business and selected personal commitments.

Key areas of responsibility:

• Complex, strategic diary and inbox management across multiple time zones

• Heavy, high-level scheduling with senior stakeholders, investors, and advisers

• International travel coordination and logistics

• Acting as gatekeeper and trusted liaison

• Preparing briefings, research, and meeting materials

• Managing highly sensitive information with absolute discretion

• Bringing structure and operational rigour to a fast-moving environment

• Acting as a sounding board and constructively pushing back when needed

You must be comfortable operating in organised chaos while maintaining calm, clarity, and control.

This role will suit a seasoned Senior EA who:

• Has significant experience supporting a Founder, C-suite executive, or high-profile principal

• Thrives in a founder-led, entrepreneurial environment

• Is commercially sharp and understands the bigger picture

• Can manage a principal who moves quickly and changes direction

• Is resilient, structured, and unflappable

• Builds long-term trust and isn't afraid to challenge appropriately

• Has warmth, humour, and strong interpersonal presence

• Competitive

• Central London | Office based

• Urgent start

• Notice period ideally no more than one month

Interview process begins Tuesday 3rd of March, with final stage directly with the Founder the following week. Candidates should expect a robust and commercially focused conversation.
