Overview

A seasoned Personal Assistant is sought to primarily support the female principal in a dynamic, fast-paced private household. This is a high-level role requiring excellent judgment, discretion, organization, and the ability to anticipate needs before they arise. The ideal candidate will serve as an extension of the Chief of Staff—someone who can confidently manage projects, solve problems independently, and ensure the principal's personal life operates effortlessly. The goal is to become a trusted deputy who can take ownership of responsibilities with minimal oversight. This is a busy family household with young children, so the ideal candidate will genuinely enjoy working in a family-centered environment.
