What this hire actually owns.

Managing directors at boutique investment banks and M&A advisory firms looking for an assistant who runs the logistics of a sell-side process, not just a calendar.

Own

Owns the managing director's calendar and travel around management presentations, buyer meetings, and signing dates across several live deals.

Translate

Tracks signed nondisclosure agreements against the data-room access list and the buyer contact sheet, so nobody gets in early and nobody waits on a signature that already came back.

Protect

Keeps buyer-outreach logistics clean when two processes run at once and the names on them must never cross.

Why this seat is hard to fill.

At an advisory firm the assistant's calendar is the deal calendar. Management presentations, buyer meetings, and signing dates stack across several live processes, and every one comes with nondisclosure agreements to track, a data-room access list to keep honest, and a buyer who wants a different time. People who have done this inside a bank are rare anywhere, and the ones in Latin America who learned it on cross-border deals are already spoken for.

How we reach them.

  • Every search starts with the investment banking executive assistants who are in the seat right now, in Medellín, Bogotá, Buenos Aires, and Mexico City. An assistant who can run a management presentation week is the reason their managing director stays on schedule, and the bank pays to keep them.
  • We reach them by warm intro, prior-network referral, and a researched personal email. Never a job post, never a recruiter blast.
  • Eight active searches a month, so the outreach stays personal enough that someone with a job reads it.

How we check them.

  • A live scheduling exercise in Outlook: six buyer meetings for a management presentation week, two cancellations, and a managing director on a flight, resolved against the clock.
  • A tracker exercise: a buyer list, a folder of signed and unsigned agreements, and an access request, reconciled without letting anyone through who has not signed.
  • The same scorecard and reference checks we run on our own hires, with references from the people who actually managed them. We put forward only people we would hire ourselves.

Want the hire trained to run AI in the seat? We offer that as a separate, optional bootcamp — priced on its own, never bundled into the placement fee.

We say no more often than we say yes.

  • Your managing directors run more than one live process at a time.
  • Agreement tracking, access lists, and buyer scheduling fall to your analysts at midnight.
  • You want an assistant who already knows what a management presentation week looks like.
  • You need a banker to run the process itself.
  • You only need inbox triage a few hours a week.
  • You are not ready to give the role access to deal calendars and access lists.
