EA to MDs, Investment Banking – hybrid (4/1)

Are you a brilliant EA with solid Investment Banking experience supporting at MD level?

Do you thrive in a fast-moving front-office environment, where priorities change quickly and you need to stay one step ahead?

Our client is a leading global Investment Bank and one of its busiest and highest revenue-generating teams is looking for an exceptional EA to support a small group of senior bankers. This is a high-profile role where you’ll act as a trusted right hand – managing complex priorities, anticipating what needs to happen next and keeping everything running seamlessly. You’ll need to think quickly, use your judgement and remain calm when several urgent demands land at once.

You’ll be joining a bright, dynamic and supportive team where the EA is genuinely valued and very much part of the business. If you enjoy being at the heart of a busy team, building trusted relationships and making a real difference, we’d love to hear from you!

What you’ll be doing day-to-day: 

• Proactively managing complex, high-volume diaries
• Scheduling and re-prioritising meetings and calls across international time zones
• Arranging extensive UK and international travel, including detailed itineraries, accommodation, ground transport and visas
• Acting as a first point of contact for senior leaders, clients and colleagues
• Building strong relationships across the business and dealing confidently with fast-moving requests
• Managing expenses, invoices and reimbursements
• Supporting team administration, meetings, interviews and new-starter onboarding
• Maintaining client contacts and CRM records
• Liaising with Finance, HR, Compliance, IT, Legal and Business Management
• Providing cover and working collaboratively with the wider EA team
• Handling highly confidential client, deal and firm information with absolute discretion

The skills you need to bring: 

• Recent EA/PA experience supporting MD-level senior bankers within front-office Investment Banking is essential
• Experience working within a demanding, fast-paced deal environment
• Exceptional diary management, organisation and prioritisation skills
• Ability to juggle multiple senior stakeholders and rapidly changing priorities
• A proactive, resourceful approach – you anticipate rather than wait to be asked
• Excellent judgement and the confidence to work independently
• Calm and composed under pressure
• Strong communication and relationship-building skills
• Impeccable attention to detail and discretion
• Advanced Microsoft Office skills
• Flexibility when deal activity occasionally requires support outside standard hours
