Hello! We're Teya.
Teya is a payment and software service provider, headquartered in London serving small, local businesses across Europe. Founded in 2019, we build easy to use, integrated tools that enable our members to accept payments and boost business performance.
At Teya we believe small, local businesses are the lifeblood of our communities.
We’re here because we don’t believe there’s a level playing field that gives small businesses with a fighting chance against the giants of the high street.
We’re here because we see banks and legacy service providers making things harder for them. We don’t think the best technology or the best service should be reserved for those with the biggest headquarters.
We’re here to fight for a future where small, local businesses can thrive, and to commit the same dedication they offer all of us.
Become a part of our story.
We’re looking for exceptional talent to join our mission. We offer a chance to create impact in a high-energy and connected culture, while benefiting from continuous learning opportunities, a supportive community which is proud to serve our mission, and comprehensive benefits.
Your Mission
This is a high-impact opportunity to support Teya’s Chief People Officer (CPO) and Chief Credit & Analytics Officer (CCAO) as we scale across Europe. We're seeking an experienced, proactive Executive Assistant who will take full ownership of administrative operations, ensuring both leaders feel at ease, pressure-free, and can focus on strategic priorities.
You’ll be trusted to run the day-to-day without needing to be managed or chased, acting as an operational partner who anticipates needs, solves problems, and simplifies workflows. For those interested, there will be opportunities to take on small projects across People and Credit teams, opening doors for career growth within Teya.

- Comfortable being on-site at least 4 days/week (ideally 5) and flexing hours for occasional urgent requests.
- Highly proficient in Slack and Office365.
- Strong communicator with excellent interpersonal and written skills. Ability to convey complex information clearly and concisely with attention to detail.
- Exceptionally organized, proactive, and able to juggle competing priorities without missing a beat.
- Calm under pressure, solutions-oriented, and resourceful in navigating the unexpected.
- A polished, professional presence who builds trust quickly and maintains discretion at all times.
The Perks
- Physical and mental health support through our partnership with Wellhub giving free access to over 1,500 gyms in the UK, 1-1 therapy, meditation sessions, digital fitness and nutrition apps.
- Teya offers extended and improved maternity and paternity leave choices, giving employees more flexibility and support.
