Job Description
Recruitment Agency London is actively seeking a highly organised and proactive Personal Assistant to support senior executives within a dynamic corporate environment in the heart of London's EC3 district. This is a pivotal role for a professional who thrives in a fast-paced setting, offering an immediate start for the right candidate. Our client, a leading firm in the financial and professional services sector, requires a dedicated individual to manage complex diaries, coordinate high-level meetings, and ensure the seamless operation of their executive office. This position is more than just administrative support; it's about being the right hand to leadership, anticipating needs, and solving problems before they arise. By applying through our specialised agency, you gain direct access to top-tier employers in the City who trust us to source exceptional talent for critical support roles.
We specialise in connecting skilled professionals like you with prestigious businesses across London. As a trusted recruitment agency with deep roots in the EC3 area, we understand the specific demands of support roles within the Square Mile. Whether you are looking for a temporary assignment to bridge a gap, a temp-to-perm opportunity to secure a permanent position, or a challenging new career step, this Personal Assistant role represents a fantastic chance to showcase your skills. We manage the entire application process, provide local market insights, and offer ongoing support throughout your assignment. For those also exploring other sectors, we have a vast portfolio, from warehouse jobs in London to specialised facilities management roles, ensuring we can match your skills with the perfect opportunity.
Key Responsibilities
- Comprehensive diary and email management for senior executives, including prioritising appointments, scheduling meetings, and coordinating complex international travel itineraries.
- Acting as the first point of contact, screening calls, managing correspondence, and handling inquiries with the utmost professionalism and discretion.
- Preparing, formatting, and proofreading high-quality documents, presentations, reports, and board packs to ensure accuracy and a professional standard.
- Organising and facilitating meetings, conferences, and corporate events, including venue booking, catering, agenda preparation, and minute-taking.
- Managing ad-hoc projects, conducting research, and liaising with internal departments and external clients to support business objectives and executive priorities.
What We're Looking For
- Proven experience as a Personal Assistant, Executive Assistant, or in a similar high-level support role, ideally within a corporate, financial, or legal environment in London.
- Exceptional organisational skills with a keen eye for detail and the ability to manage multiple tasks and deadlines efficiently under pressure.
- Outstanding written and verbal communication skills, with proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite (Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint) and other office management software.
- A proactive, solutions-focused attitude, impeccable discretion when handling confidential information, and the ability to build strong working relationships at all levels.
Salary & Benefits
We offer a highly competitive pay rate for this Personal Assistant position, which is reflective of your experience, the seniority of the role, and the demands of the London EC3 market. Pay is processed weekly, providing you with reliable and timely income. While this is initially a temporary assignment, it offers significant potential for extension or transition into a permanent role (temp-to-perm) based on performance and business needs.
In addition to the financial remuneration, working through Recruitment Agency London provides a suite of benefits designed to support your career. You will have a dedicated consultant who provides personalised support, guidance on career progression, and access to exclusive training resources. We also offer a streamlined, fast registration process to get you started without delay. For professionals skilled in organisation and support, the career path can be very rewarding, much like the specialised trajectories we see for recruitment jobs in London or the structured opportunities in hotel receptionist roles.

Frequently Asked Questions
How quickly can I start this Personal Assistant role in EC3?
This role is for an immediate start. Once you apply and successfully complete our swift registration and vetting process, which can often be done within 24-48 hours, you can be placed directly into the assignment. We specialise in fast-track placements for urgent business needs.
What is the difference between temp and temp-to-perm?
A temporary (temp) role has a fixed end date or is ongoing but without a permanent guarantee. Temp-to-perm means you start on a temporary basis with a clear view from the employer to transition you to a permanent employee after a successful trial period, typically 8-12 weeks. This role has strong temp-to-perm potential.
Do I need specific qualifications to be a Personal Assistant?
While formal qualifications like a business administration diploma are beneficial, most employers in London EC3 prioritise proven experience, core competencies, and a professional demeanour. Exceptional organisational skills, communication, discretion, and software proficiency (MS Office) are typically more critical than specific degree subjects.
What other similar roles does Recruitment Agency London fill?
We fill a wide array of support and operational roles across London. Alongside Personal Assistant positions, we regularly recruit for Admin Assistant roles, Receptionists, Housekeeper staff for corporate housing, and Cleaner / Cleaning Operative teams for office environments. We also place Picker/Packer staff in adjacent sectors.
How and when will I get paid?
All our temporary workers are paid weekly, directly into your bank account. You will submit timesheets, which we verify with the client and process promptly. Our payroll team ensures you are paid accurately and on time for every hour you work, with all statutory deductions (PAYE, NI) handled correctly.
Can I apply if I live outside London EC3?
Absolutely. While the role is based in EC3, we welcome applications from candidates across London and the surrounding commuter areas. Many of our candidates travel from zones 3-6 for these premium central London roles. We consider reliability and commute time during our screening to ensure it's a sustainable fit for you.
