📍London | 💰 Circa £65,000 (based on experience level) + Benefits

⭐Our EA team

We’re looking for an experienced Executive Assistant to join our EA team to support our Executive team and senior leaders. Initially you will support our Chief Operating Officer.

We know that an excellent EA leads to better outcomes for our customers by enabling the performance of the Executive they support. This is why we are looking for a passionate, ambitious EA who relishes working in a fast paced environment where they have an opportunity to make a real difference. While you will initially be supporting our COO 1:1, it is important that you’re willing to be flexible as business needs change. We generally work 1:2 / 1:3 depending on the workload associated with the person.

Joining a team of seventeen you will collaborate with our existing EA team to keep Monzo running and to continue to raise the bar on what great support looks like.

🔑You’ll play a key role by...

• Managing our leaders’ time to ensure their diaries are accurate, free from clashes, prioritised and creating space for them to get work done. Anticipating changes and proactively supporting them to keep their plates spinning.
• Supporting our leaders with their important weekly meetings whether that is with agenda, deck preparation, taking minutes or following up on actions.
• Keeping your finger on the pulse of their world by proactively managing their inbox and keeping it clear of clutter and escalating important information to ensure it is addressed in a timely manner.
• Relationship building across your leaders organisation to keep your finger on the pulse of engagement.
• Owning the logistics of your leaders work life and their events. This could look like arranging day to day transport and accommodation, planning away days and socials for their team or ensuring they have a meeting room for every meeting.
• Working as part of an Executive Office, collaborating with the Chief of Staff and People Partner to deliver for your exec.

While your focus will be on the leader that you’re supporting there will also be opportunities to get involved in project work and other initiatives across the organisation that interest you.

• You have experience working as an EA previously within a fast paced environment. (While not a requirement, previous experience in a start-up or scale up is preferable)
