Personal Assistant to an Ultra-High-Net-Worth Individual (UHNWI)

About the Role

We are seeking an exceptional Personal Assistant to provide dedicated support to an Ultra-High-Net-Worth Individual (UHNWI). This is a highly dynamic, international role requiring exceptional organizational skills, sound judgement, discretion, and the flexibility to support a fast-paced global lifestyle.

The successful candidate will act as a trusted right hand to the principal, managing an ever-changing schedule, coordinating complex travel, and ensuring the seamless execution of both business and personal matters.

Working Style

This is not a traditional office-based role. The successful candidate will work closely around the principal's schedule, which requires a high degree of flexibility, including availability outside standard business hours and, when necessary, during weekends or while travelling internationally.

In return, the role offers the opportunity to become a trusted member of a highly professional environment, supporting an international lifestyle where no two days are the same.
