The business is growing rapidly across the UK, US and internationally, with ambitious plans to scale headcount significantly over the next 12–18 months.
This is a high-performance environment - fast-paced, direct, and output-driven.

* Liaising with internal teams and external stakeholders
* Organising events, offsites and leadership meetings
* Identifying inefficiencies and building better systems
* Using tools (including AI) to improve productivity and workflow
What They’re Looking For:
* Highly organised, detail-driven, and proactive
* Strong communicator with good judgement
* Able to operate at pace in a startup environment
* Comfortable working with ambiguity and changing priorities
* High level of ownership - doesn’t wait to be told what to do
* Resilient and able to handle pressure
* Discreet and professional
Mindset matters more than experience:
This role is open to:
* Early-career candidates with strong potential
* Or more experienced EAs who want a more dynamic environment
Culture Fit (This Matters)
* Direct, fast-moving leadership team
* High accountability
* Not overly corporate or structured
* You’ll need to hold your own and be comfortable with direct communication
Why This Role:
* Work directly with the CEO
* High visibility and impact from day one
* Opportunity to grow as the business scales
* Real ownership - not just diary management
This role will suit someone who:
* Enjoys solving problems quickly
* Thrives in fast-moving environments
