About InvestEngine

InvestEngine is everything the modern investor should need. Unbeatable value, market-leading automation, and built for easy, long-term investing. We’ve built a strong foundation, have over £2 billion invested, award-winning service, and a passionate team, now we’re ready to scale.

About the Role

This role is the operational backbone of our London office. You will support the executive team, ensure governance is done right, and keep the office running at a high standard. Your work enables senior leaders to focus on strategy while you ensure the engine underneath runs without friction.

What You’ll Do

Executive support and governance:

• Supporting the board and committees with preparing meeting materials and capturing decisions with precise, compliant minutes, ensuring all actions are logged and tracked (RAID, Asana or similar), as well as followed up on.
• Maintain confidentiality and governance discipline in line with regulated documentation standards.

Office operations:

• Oversee the daily running of the London office so everything works as expected: access, equipment, supplies, cleanliness and workspace set-up.
• Manage service providers (cleaning, maintenance, deliveries, furniture, supplies) and landlord communication, anticipating and resolving issues timely.

Onboarding and people support:

• Ensure a smooth, predictable onboarding rhythm, coordinating with People, IT and hiring managers to make sure the workspaces and equipment are for new starters to feel welcome.

Events and culture:

• Plan and arrange various events, team activities and on-site sessions that strengthen team connection.
• Manage logistics, budgets and travel arrangements with sharp attention to detail and a focus on experience.

What We’re Looking For

• 2-3 years experience in an Executive Assistant or operations role in a fast-paced regulated environment.
  
• Strong judgement: you know what needs attention now, what can wait, and what must be escalated.
  
• Confident with language: you can capture complex conversations cleanly and draft clear, concise written outputs.
  
• Reliable with detail, confidentiality and follow-through.
  
• Skilled with tools such as Asana, Jira or similar.
  
• Collaborative and direct, keeping communication crisp and unblock others quickly.
  
• High initiative: you notice gaps, address issues early and keep momentum high.

How We Work

We’re a lean, fast-moving team that values clarity, ownership, and transparency.
You’ll have the freedom to experiment, the responsibility to follow through, and the backing of a team that values clear thinking and open dialogue. We believe in solving problems at the root, not just treating the symptoms.

What We Offer

Impact from day one
You’ll take on meaningful work from the start, tackling real challenges that drive the stability, efficiency, and growth of our business.

Room to grow
As we scale, you’ll have opportunities to expand your responsibilities, influence how we work, and help shape our long-term direction.

Transparent and open culture
We share decisions openly, keep communication channels clear, and encourage collaboration across every part of the business.

Supportive, high-calibre team
Work alongside talented professionals who are experts in their fields — smart, driven, and generous with their knowledge.

Please note, this is not a remote role!
