Senior Private PA
A Senior Private PA is needed for a UHNW Principal in West London to run the personal and household administration of a busy private life with international reach.
Permanent, full-time, live-out. On site five days a week, 10am to 6pm, with flexibility around the Principal's travel and project schedule. Start as soon as possible: this is an urgent hire.
£80,000 to £90,000 gross per annum, dependent on experience. West London. Right to work in the UK required.
The Principal's life spans business, a private foundation, film projects, philanthropic activity, family, and international travel. The household is established: a House Manager runs the residence, supported by a security team. A Chief of Staff appointment is planned, and the Senior Private PA will work closely with that role once in place.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What you will own:
- The Principal's diary and personal inbox: triage, prioritise, protect, follow through.
- Travel planning to UHNW standard: flights, ground, accommodation, security liaison, document readiness.
- Foundation, film, and philanthropic project support: diary, correspondence, expenses, event logistics.
- Coordination with the House Manager on household rhythm and with the children's logistics where they touch the Principal's day.
- Personal expenses, reconciliations, contacts, subscriptions, memberships, and confidential records.
What you bring:
- Five plus years in a Private PA, EA to a UHNW Principal, or equivalent senior private-office role. This is not a step-up from a corporate EA seat without private-side experience.
- Excellent spoken and written English.
- Senior-level diary and inbox management for a busy Principal.
- International travel planning to UHNW standard.
- Strong written communication; able to draft in the Principal's tone.
- Sound financial discipline: expenses, reconciliations, clean records.
- Calm, discreet, resourceful. Comfortable inside an established household team.
- Right to work in the UK.
