Business Assistant

Fantastic opportunity to join outstanding Private Equity boutique as Business Assistant, working out of the heart of London’s West End.  You will be a highly-organised multi-tasker who enjoys a varied role – fluent French and excellent organisation skills are essential.

You will work closely with the Head of London to manage all business interactions with international clients.  You will have previously supported at senior level, and therefore have a shrewdly developed sense of weighing up priorities and making difficult decisions regarding your boss' time, and changing needs of the firm.

As the senior member of support in the small office, you will be able to bring life and energy in all you do.  You will work well with other assistants, without a sense of hierarchy or competition; you will enjoy seeing other assistants flourish.

You will have:

• a confident and professional telephone manner
• excellent communication skills with an open, non-confrontational style (highly articulate in English and French)
• excellent prioritisation skills which translate into strong, confident gate-keeping
• the ability to cope under pressure
• outstanding attention to detail pertaining to all admin/organisational tasks
• an excellent understanding of financial services
• demonstrated business acumen

Relatively new to London, with global presence, the team are akin to founders here, love their jobs, and are looking for a real team-player.  A superb opportunity and unique chance to be right hand to an outstanding investment professional.
