We're working with a boutique land and property investment advisory business in Fitzrovia. This is a founder-led business with a stellar reputation and a small, collaborative team. The Managing Director — a passionate, driven and loyal leader — is looking for a right-hand person to bring structure, pace and calm to her world.

  • Following up on key actions and communications - ensuring nothing slips through the cracks
  • Handling a wide range of administrative tasks including invoices, payroll checks and expenses
  • Supporting with personal admin and tasks relating to the MD’s wider business interests
  • Keeping internal systems, files and CRM tidy and up to date
  • Occasionally pitching in with broader office operations - it’s a team effort!

Who would suit this Executive Assistant role:

  • A seasoned EA with 5+ years supporting senior leaders, ideally in property, finance or founder-led SMEs
  • Commercially aware, highly organised and proactive - you get things done before being asked
  • Calm, emotionally intelligent and discreet - the person people trust with sensitive matters
  • Experienced in managing complex inboxes and fast-moving diaries
  • Resilient, practical and adaptable - you’ll fit into the MD work flow and create improvements
  • Tech-savvy with excellent MS Office and CRM/database skills
  • Not afraid to push back when needed - you manage up effectively and diplomatically

Why this Executive Assistant role?

  • You’ll be working directly with an inspiring MD who rewards loyalty and trust
  • Total variety - no two days the same, and your impact will be visible from day one
  • A people-first culture - small team, big ambitions, real autonomy
  • Fitzrovia location - great office, excellent connections
  • A generous, entrepreneurial leader who knows the value of a brilliant EA
