Eden Recruitment is partnering with a highly successful investment firm to appoint an exceptional Private PA to provide dedicated personal, lifestyle and household support to its CEO and family.

This is a highly trusted position requiring someone who is equally comfortable managing the finer details of family life and taking ownership of the broader responsibilities involved in running multiple private residences.

Working between the firm's London office and private residences, you will become a key point of contact for the CEO and his family, ensuring their personal arrangements, properties and day-to-day commitments are managed seamlessly.

You’ll work closely with an established Business EA, maintaining clear communication and ensuring the CEO's professional and personal worlds are coordinated effectively.

We are looking for someone who genuinely enjoys private support, has exceptional attention to detail and takes real satisfaction in anticipating needs, finding solutions and making life easier for those they support.

The Role

• Take ownership of the CEO's personal diary, family schedules, appointments and wider lifestyle arrangements.
• Plan and coordinate international travel, family holidays and detailed itineraries, managing every aspect from initial arrangements through to last-minute changes.
• Oversee the day-to-day running of private residences, ensuring properties are maintained, organised and operating to the highest standards.
• Coordinate household staff, rotas, contractors, suppliers and service providers, maintaining strong relationships and ensuring consistently high standards.
• Manage property maintenance, household projects and refurbishment works, liaising with relevant parties and overseeing progress.
• Provide dedicated personal and administrative support to the CEO's wife, responding to a broad range of personal and family requirements.
• Coordinate children's schedules, activities, appointments and associated arrangements.
• Organise private events, celebrations, restaurant reservations and other personal engagements.
• Oversee household administration, invoices, expenses, personal correspondence and relevant records.
• Work in close partnership with the Business EA to ensure diaries, travel and competing commitments are aligned.
• Act as a trusted point of contact, handling sensitive matters with discretion and resolving issues independently wherever possible.

About You

• Proven experience as a Private PA, Family PA or Lifestyle PA supporting a high-net-worth individual or private family.
• A strong understanding of the expectations, discretion and flexibility required within a private household environment.
• Practical experience managing private residences, household staff, suppliers and contractors.
• Excellent experience coordinating complex international travel and managing multiple personal and family commitments.
• Highly organised and detail-oriented, with the ability to keep numerous moving parts under control.
• Naturally proactive, resourceful and confident making decisions, anticipating requirements and finding solutions.
• Warm, personable and emotionally intelligent, with the ability to build trusted relationships while maintaining appropriate professional boundaries.
• Comfortable operating across both corporate and private environments, adapting your approach as required.
• Flexible, dependable and willing to take a hands-on approach when needed.
• A full, clean UK driving licence is essential.

The Opportunity

This is an opportunity to become an integral part of a busy family's support structure, working in a position that offers considerable autonomy, variety and responsibility.

You’ll join an established support team, working alongside an experienced Business EA, while developing a close and trusted working relationship with the CEO and his family.

We would love to hear from experienced Private PAs who take pride in delivering exceptional support, enjoy the variety of family and household management and are looking for a position where their contribution will be genuinely valued.
