Job description

Personal Assistant and Property Assistant

We’re seeking a calm, capable, and service-minded individual to join a private family office. This isn’t a traditional PA or operations job—it’s a unique opportunity to support a values-driven family across their homes, travel, and day-to-day lives internationally.

This is a diverse and hands-on role for someone who enjoys variety and takes pride in doing things well.

You’ll be responsible for:
• Coordinating thoughtful guest experiences, including travel, welcome preparations, and personalised hospitality
• Overseeing property operations—from managing suppliers and maintenance to supporting home projects and renovations
• Assisting with lifestyle logistics, errands, scheduling, and occasional support for teenage family members
• Supporting the smooth running of the Principal’s workspace and related events

You’ll Thrive Here If You Are:
• Organised, proactive, and solutions-focused
• Calm under pressure and adaptable when plans change
• Discreet, professional, and respectful of personal boundaries
• Attuned to detail and quality, but never lose sight of the bigger picture
• Comfortable working independently but value being part of a close-knit team
• Open, kind, and committed to evolving in your role
