Executive Assistant to Founder - Leaman Consulting : Job Details

Location: Notting Hill (office-based role with occasional WFH when the Founder travels)

Contract: Fixed Term Maternity Cover until October 2026 (ASAP start) - with potential to become permanent

Salary: Up to £100,000 + discretionary bonus + Benefits

Schedule: Full-time, expect evening/weekend support as needed

This is a career-defining opportunity for an exceptional Executive Assistant to join the private office of a dynamic and fast-paced Founder with a diverse portfolio of business and personal interests. With responsibilities stretching across strategic business coordination, diary and communication management, project oversight, and stakeholder liaison, this is far more than a traditional support role.

You'll operate as a strategic extension of the Founder, enabling him to remain focused, prepared, and aligned with the broader goals of his ventures. A calm, confident and ultra-professional demeanour is key - you'll be in the room (and sometimes leading the room), representing his voice and priorities.

You will report into the Chief of Staff and be part of a high-functioning, collegiate support team, including a Private Personal Assistant. This is a Fixed Term Contract role with an immediate start and runs through to October 2026, with a possibility of it becoming permanent for the right individual.

• Partnering with business leads to track progress and flag emerging priorities

• Project support as needed, across commercial and personal ventures

What We're Looking For

• Minimum 5 years' experience supporting a CEO, Founder or entrepreneur

• Commercially savvy, with B2B SaaS / investment exposure

A truly rewarding role for a high-performing EA who thrives in pace, values discretion, and enjoys being deeply embedded in the success of the business and the individual they support.
