Executive Assistant

We're looking for an absolute superstar. No ego. No job too small. And a HUGE appetite for building something from scratch!

And when we say from scratch, we really mean it.

We're working with a seriously exciting, incredibly early-stage AI start-up founded by researchers from some of the world's leading AI labs (think Google, Microsoft) and backed by top-tier venture investors.

The ambition is enormous. The team is 30+ and they're growing with some very exciting new hires in the pipeline.

They're looking for their very first EA . Someone who gets genuinely excited about rolling up their sleeves, figuring things out, making things happen and helping build a company from the ground up.

This is not your typical EA role. There are no established processes, no big support functions and certainly no neatly written playbook.You’ll be helping to write it.

What you'll be doing:

A bit of everything! And that's exactly the point.

• Supporting the CEO and founding leadership team with complex diaries, travel, meetings and priorities
• Coordinating investor meetings and keeping things moving behind the scenes
• Helping recruit brilliant people and grow the team
• Setting up an office, putting systems and processes in place and generally making things work
• Getting stuck into whatever needs doing, from high-level executive support to the most basic operational tasks
• Spotting problems, finding solutions and bringing order to the inevitable start-up chaos

Someone exceptionally bright, resourceful, energetic and completely unflappable.

You’ll have solid, recent experience supporting founders, C-suite executives or senior leaders, ideally in tech, VC, PE or another fast-moving environment.

But here's what's really important:

You have absolutely no ego. You're just as happy booking a flight as you are building an office, dealing with investors or assembling the furniture.

You're curious, commercially aware, brilliantly organised and naturally ten steps ahead. You don't wait to be told what to do. You see what needs doing and get on with it.

Start-up experience would be fantastic, but it's your attitude, judgement, energy and willingness to get your hands dirty that will really set you apart.

This is a rare opportunity to join an ambitious AI business at the very beginning, work alongside some seriously impressive people and help shape what it becomes.

If you love structure, predictability and a clearly defined job description, this definitely isn't for you....but if the idea of building something from the ground up sounds exciting, we'd love to hear from you!
