EA to CEO and Founder 
 

Do you have experience working in a start-up? A fabulous opportunity has arisen to support the CEO and founder of a start-up e-commerce business. This is the first time that the CEO has had an EA so it is an exciting opportunity to hit the ground running and really make the role your own. Based in sleek offices in East London, the team is close knit (10 people) and incredibly dynamic so we are looking for a candidate that can match this energy. This is a role where two days will never be the same. 

Duties include but are not limited to:

•    Complex diary management, meeting management & booking international travel
•    Acting as a gatekeeper – ensuring your principal has more time to work on growing the business rather than being stuck in meetings all day! 
•    Project & Process management: lead key projects and help develop and implement new company processes 
•    Office management – ensure that the daily operations and logistics of the office run smoothly and the office is fully stocked. 
•    Assist HR with onboarding, employee engagement and help drive company culture forward 
•    Create efficient systems and standardise company information and documentation systems 
•    Liaise with finance and legal
•    Some private support; booking holidays, restaurant bookings etc.

This role offers genuine progression and the opportunity to make and assist with business growth. We are looking for a candidate that has experience (3+ years) working in a similar environment and is able to work at pace and under time pressure. This is a role that will involve making key decisions that will ultimately shape the future of the business so we need a candidate with emotional intelligence and the ability to always be ten steps ahead.
