About the role

We're looking for a sharp, systems-minded Executive Assistant to support our Chief Investment Officer based in London, and 2 VPs (one in London and one in South Africa). You'll be embedded in a fast-moving, Slack-first culture where things change quickly, and attention to detail is the difference between smooth and chaotic. You'll be trusted with sensitive information and high-visibility communications that touch every employee at KoBold.

What they're looking for

  • Based in London (close to Shoreditch is a plus!)
  • 7+ years supporting senior executives, ideally two or more simultaneously, in a fast-moving environment
  • Exceptional organizational and project management skills, you've owned multi-step workflows with multiple stakeholders before
  • Flawless attention to detail, you're the person who catches the typo in the deck title
  • Comfortable in real-time communication tools (Slack preferred) and quick to learn new systems
  • Already experimenting with AI, or excited to learn
