Executive Assistant to Founder

£19.1 - £22.3 per hourEstimated
Full-time

Healf is Europe's fastest-growing company.

Number one on the FT1000, number one on the Sifted 100. From £1m to over £100m in under three years, with a small, talent-dense team and an electric culture with day one founder intensity. Now we're aiming for £1bn in the next three.

We curate the world's best wellbeing brands across The Four Pillars™: EAT, MOVE, MIND, SLEEP. That's the first chapter.

The next chapter is harder and more interesting.

We are moving from one market to many, from e-commerce to a technology platform, and from curating wellbeing to defining it. We are a health company, so we think we should act like one.

At its fullest expression, Healf redefines what wellbeing means for tens of millions of people.

The Opportunity

High-Performance, Long-Term Force Multiplier

We are hiring a truly exceptional Executive Assistant to work directly with the Founder of a high-growth, Series B company building toward a multi-billion pound, multi-generational business.

This is not a reactive diary management role.

We are looking for a precision-driven, intellectually sharp, high-EQ operator who can act as a true guardian of time.

The right person will play a critical role in increasing the Founder’s effectiveness, protecting deep work, and ensuring attention is allocated to the highest-leverage opportunities across talent, capital, brand, operations, and strategy.

Where You’ll Make An Impact

You will:

  • Design and own the Founder’s time architecture - not just manage a calendar, but shape how time is invested.

  • Act as a trusted gatekeeper, confidently filtering inbound and saying no when appropriate.

  • Apply strong judgement to inbound opportunities - understanding which meetings and relationships create meaningful leverage, and which do not.

  • Represent the business to senior operators, investors, and founders with polish and judgement.

  • Build structured systems for calendar management, relationship tracking (CRM), executive rhythm, and internal coordination.

  • Reduce administrative load quickly and bring clarity and structure to weekly time allocation.

  • Improve executive meeting cadence and support leadership team coordination where helpful.

  • Operate at the centre of a high-performance, ambitious, office-based environment.

  • This role offers real influence over how a scaling company is run - through the leverage of time.

What Success Looks Like (First 90 Days)

  • Full ownership of calendar and time architecture.

  • Clear structure around deep work, talent, investor, and operational time.

  • Reduced administrative burden for the Founder and leadership team.

  • A clean, structured system for managing key relationships and follow-ups.

  • Increased clarity and intentionality in how time is allocated across the company.

Who This Role Is For

This will excite you if:

  • You take genuine pride in making exceptional people more effective.

  • You are obsessively organised and systems-oriented.

  • You have strong commercial awareness and judgement.

  • You are comfortable operating at pace without sacrificing precision.

  • You enjoy being trusted with high standards and high expectations.

  • You want to build a long-term career as a world-class Executive Assistant.

  • You genuinely love being in the office and around the team - minimum 4 days a week , because that's where the energy is.

 

This role is not a chaos-management position. It is a precision, optimisation, and leverage role.

You have:

  • Significant experience supporting a high-performing CEO or founder (typically 5+ years).

  • Proven experience thriving in high-intensity environments (startup, scale-up, PE-backed, etc.) and a genuine preference for this level of pace and performance.

  • Demonstrated longevity and discretion.

  • Evidence of strong judgement and executive presence.

 

This Role Is Not Designed For

  • Early-career candidates at the beginning of their EA journey

  • Individuals exploring a short-term stepping stone into other functions

  • High-profile or lifestyle-focused EA roles centred around glamour or personal brand

  • Aspiring Chiefs of Staff seeking a transition into strategy

Why Join Healf

  • Do your life’s best work: Build something that matters, with a team that moves fast and aims high.

  • Surround yourself with A+ talent : You’ll work with high-performers who care deeply and raise the standard every day.

  • Be a builder : This isn’t a cog-in-the-machine role. You’ll help shape our voice, culture, and growth

  • Wellbeing is the lifestyle : From office yoga to Healf Zone insights, everything we do is rooted in our pillars: EAT MOVE MIND SLEEP

  • Premium Wellhub Membership : Unlimited entry to 1000's of gym, yoga, & fitness studios.

  • Exclusive Healf Perks : 50% off all Healf products plus discounted Healf Zone blood testing.

  • Nest Pension : Secure your future with our pension contributions.

  • Wellbeing-Focused Workspace : Incredible Hammersmith office with great natural lighting.

  • Team Connection : Annual company-wide retreat to recharge and bond.

The Deal

Competitive and meaningful compensation package for the right person. We ask a great deal of the people who work here. We expect full ownership and a genuine commitment to give this chapter everything you have.

In return, we will give you the same: everything we have, invested in your growth, your wellbeing, and the defining skills of the next decade.

We have built the fastest-growing company in Europe with a team small enough that every person in it shapes the outcome. That is still true today. The next person we hire will change the trajectory of the company.

If the most important work of your career is ahead of you, this is the place to do it.
