Temp Executive Assistant & Office Manager - Mission-Led Consultancy | London Bridge (Hybrid)

Immediate Start (potential to go perm)

We are looking for an exceptional Executive Assistant to support the Founder of a small, successful and growing consultancy working across social impact, responsible business and sustainability.

The business works with an impressive range of organisations, advising on complex global challenges and helping businesses operate more responsibly. It’s a thoughtful, purpose-driven environment with an entrepreneurial spirit, where the work is interesting, varied and genuinely meaningful.

The Founder is incredibly bright, creative and always thinking several steps ahead. With multiple priorities, a demanding schedule and plenty of moving parts, she needs a proactive, intuitive and highly organised right hand who can keep everything running smoothly.

Key Responsibilities:

• Full diary and inbox management, proactively managing meetings, correspondence and priorities
• Acting as a gatekeeper, protecting the Founder’s time and ensuring her days are structured and manageable
• Managing a busy and frequently changing diary, juggling competing demands and last-minute requests
• Starting and ending each day with the Founder to review priorities, upcoming commitments and outstanding actions
• Anticipating requirements ahead of meetings, ensuring everything is prepared and in place
• Keeping track of actions, deadlines and follow-ups, ensuring nothing gets missed
• Translating ideas, verbal instructions and voice notes into clear, actionable tasks
• Coordinating travel, itineraries, expenses and general administration
• Supporting wider business operations and gradually taking on office management responsibilities as the business grows
• There may be occasional light personal coordination, although this is predominantly a business-focused role

What we are looking for:

• Previous experience as an EA or PA, ideally supporting a Founder, CEO or senior executive
• Outstanding organisational skills and meticulous attention to detail
• Excellent written communication and a high standard of accuracy
• A proactive, intuitive approach, with the ability to anticipate needs and take initiative
• Confidence, emotional intelligence and the ability to build a strong working relationship
• Warmth, personality and a genuine enjoyment of supporting others
• An interest in sustainability, social impact or purpose-led businesses would be a real bonus

This is a brilliant opportunity for someone who enjoys working closely with an entrepreneurial Founder, wants to make a genuine impact and would love to be part of a business doing interesting, purposeful work.
