Executive Assistant - High-Growth Venture Capital

Job Description

Executive Assistant - High-Growth Venture Capital | Shoreditch area 1 Day WFH

A rare and genuinely career-defining opportunity for a sharp, ambitious Executive Assistant to join one of Europe's leading Series A VC funds. Known for their high-conviction, founder-first investment approach, this firm backs some of the most exciting startups across tech, crypto, cybersecurity, SaaS and more. You'll be right at the heart of the action - working side-by-side with a brilliant Operating Partner and supporting the wider leadership team in a fast-paced, dynamic, and highly collaborative environment.

This is not your average EA role. It's about being the glue that keeps things running seamlessly behind the scenes while also stepping up, taking initiative, and helping the team perform at their absolute best.

The Role
Working in close partnership with the Operating Partner and CFO (1:2 support), you'll be the right hand across a wide variety of operational and strategic tasks. From managing complex diaries and travel plans across time zones, to proofreading sensitive documentation, inbox support, liaising with high-profile stakeholders, and taking the lead on special research projects - you'll be fully embedded in the business. You'll also play a key role supporting ESG and operations initiatives, with the space to grow and shape the role as you go.

Key Responsibilities Include:

• High-level EA support: calendar, travel, inbox, expenses
• Drafting emails and formal comms
• Proofreading investor and internal materials
• Point of contact for investors, partners and founders
• Supporting the CFO with ad hoc tasks
• Formatting comms (presentations, reports, memos)
• Research projects in support of ESG & Ops functions

About You:
You'll thrive here if you're naturally proactive, detail-obsessed, and tech-savvy - someone who genuinely enjoys enabling others to succeed. This team is tight-knit, highly driven, and deeply invested in what they do. You should bring positive energy, curiosity, and the confidence to operate at pace, with a cool head under pressure.

What You'll Bring:

• 5 years' experience in an EA or senior support role
• First-class communication skills (written and verbal)
• Proven ability to manage multiple priorities
• Interest in startups and the tech world
• Discretion and sound judgment
• Confidence using GSuite, Keynote, and Apple/Mac systems

The Perks:

• 1 day WFH (Fridays)
• Collaborative, ambitious culture where high standards are the norm
• Huge exposure to the venture/startup ecosystem
• Scope to grow with the role

This is a unique opportunity for someone who wants to be part of something impactful - supporting a team that's helping to shape the future of European businesses. If you're ready to roll up your sleeves and make a real difference, we'd love to hear from you.
