Our client is a dynamic and driven individual who is looking for an exceptional EA to support with a variety of day-to-day responsibilities in a personal capacity. The Principal owns a hedge fund and has a real passion for horses and owns stables, polo, and dressage teams, so is seeking a highly organised EA to assist with the running of these. Based in Berkshire, the EA will play a key role in the management of several busy stables and their staff, supporting with all administrative aspects, including organising travel and visas, back-office support, payroll, and acting as a main point of contact.
The Principal also requires support from the EA across multiple households, many of which are mid-renovation, so the EA will need to liaise with various stakeholders such as builders, architects, and designers. The Principal and her husband travel extensively, so the successful candidate will also work closely alongside another EA to arrange personal travel.
This is a wide-ranging and varied role, ideal for a EA who can manage multiple projects simultaneously, likes to stay one step ahead, and has a willingness to get stuck in with whatever comes their way, as the role naturally evolves over time. The position provides a proactive, adaptable, and reliable EA with a fantastic opportunity to build a long-term working relationship with a Principal who is both ambitious and inspirational.
The ideal candidate will have proven experience in a business & private EA role and will ideally live within a reasonable distance of the Berkshire area. An interest in horses would be beneficial, and a Scandinavian speaker would be advantageous, though by no means essential.
Core hours: Monday to Friday, 8am – 5pm, however, flexibility will be required.
Location: Berkshire
Fantastic benefits include: 25 days’ holiday + bank holidays, discretionary bonus, pension contribution, and private health insurance.
