Private PA to UHNW Principal
London | £60,000–£70,000 | International Travel | Flexible Working
We’re partnering with an established international family office to appoint a Private PA to provide dedicated one-to-one support to a UHNW Principal.
Based in London, the Principal has a busy international lifestyle with commitments across the UK, Saudi Arabia and Dubai. This is a hands-on private support role for someone who enjoys being relied upon, taking ownership and becoming a trusted right hand.
The role will focus on managing the Principal’s private diary, extensive international travel, appointments, social engagements and day-to-day personal arrangements. Plans can change quickly, so you’ll need to be comfortable thinking on your feet, making decisions independently and finding solutions without waiting to be asked.
The Principal is based in London, so you must also be London-based. There is flexibility around where you work depending on their schedule, with time spent between the family office, the Principal’s London residence and remotely. You’ll also travel internationally with the Principal when required, particularly to Saudi Arabia and Dubai.
