Job Description
Executive Assistant to Executive Committee Member
– US Law Firm (London Office)
City of London | £Competitive + excellent benefits
Are you the trusted right hand every senior exec dreams of?
A prestigious US law firm is on the lookout for a sharp, confident and highly experienced Executive Assistant to support one of their senior Executive Committee Members in their London office. This isn’t your run-of-the-mill PA role – this is high-level, high-stakes, and highly rewarding.
What’s the role?
You'll be the linchpin for one of the firm’s top decision-makers – think complex diary management across global time zones, coordinating international travel, and being the first point of contact for senior internal and external stakeholders.
You’ll need to anticipate needs before they’re even spoken, manage confidential matters with absolute discretion, and keep things running seamlessly behind the scenes – all while juggling shifting priorities and deadlines.
✅ What do you need?
- Solid EA experience supporting senior leadership (Head of Department at least)
- Exceptional organisational and communication skills
- Proactive mindset – you see what needs to be done and get stuck in
- Gravitas and confidence when liaising with senior stakeholders
- Experience in a professional services or legal environment is highly desirable
Why this firm?
This firm blends its US roots with a forward-thinking London culture. Expect a fast-paced but genuinely collaborative environment, stunning offices in the heart of the City, and a leadership team that values and invests in its support staff.
Who would this suit?
Someone who thrives in a high-pressure environment, takes pride in their work, and enjoys being in the know. You’ll be the kind of EA who treats your Exec’s priorities as your own, stays three steps ahead, and can be both calm and assertive under pressure.
Please note this role is 4 days per week in the office. With lots of in office perks and an excellent benefits package!
