For a client of 10 years, we are recruiting for an experienced and dynamic Personal Assistant. The Client works with very high profile people in the media and so it is an exciting fast faced role with exposure to influential industry figures and a constantly evolving work environment.

The role involves managing his global property portfolio whilst also handling private affairs, lifestyle support, and general administration. With a major renovation now complete, the focus will be on consolidating and maintaining these properties over the next 6–8 months. This role is ideal for someone who is agile, organised, and thrives in a fast-moving, creative environment.

The successful candidate will be proactive, confident, and adaptable – someone who can structure their own day, communicate effectively, and take initiative when needed whilst remaining flexible to the Principal’s changing needs.

This role is best suited to someone who is comfortable operating independently, with experience liaising with household staff and service providers, and who enjoys working in a dynamic, non-corporate setting.

The role will involve some international travel on occasion and requires a candidate who is confident at driving in London.
