An exciting opportunity to work for a successful Venture Capital firm who have recently set up a London office.

The Client

Based in Mayfair, there are currently about 6 in the office, primarily researchers focused on seeking out world-class talent in highly specialised, niche areas of computer science and technology to join their portfolio businesses.

They are generally office based, but there may be occasional flexibility in time, hours are 9am-5pm.

They are supported by a fantastic EA/OM who this role would work closely with but are looking for someone to join the team to support the researchers and assist with the smooth running of the office. The team are all very calm and kind, exceptionally bright and fairly understated and it will suit someone who appreciates these traits and reflects them.

• Managing diaries
• Helping to set up intro meetings and coordinate interviews, both in person and online
• Travel coordination – primarily Germany and San Francisco
• Updating relevant systems and databases

There will be additional involvement in HR follow up and on-boarding of successful candidates.

We also need someone who enjoys being the go to person in the office and will keep on top of what needs ordering for the office, helping to organise social events, meet and greet guests, flag up any maintenance issues and generally muck in to support the office and ensure it is an enjoyable environment to work.

The Person

They are very open on experience, attitude is the most important consideration – a very flexible attitude and a genuine helpful manner is absolutely key.

• A ‘can do’ pro-active attitude
• Self-starter and resourceful.
• Strong interpersonal skills
