PRIVATE PA

An exceptional opportunity for a highly experienced, outstanding Senior Private Personal Assistant to provide comprehensive, high-level support to an UHNW Middle Eastern Principal and their family. This is a demanding and highly trusted position requiring a Private PA who is accustomed to operating at the highest level within a private household, family office or UHNW environment. The successful Private PA will act as a key point of contact for the Principals, ensuring that their personal affairs, schedule, travel, household requirements and wider lifestyle are managed seamlessly and proactively. The Principals lead a busy international life, with significant commitments across governments, business, investment, family and philanthropic interests. The role will therefore suit an individual who is highly organised, commercially aware, culturally sensitive and completely comfortable working within a fast-paced, discreet and constantly changing environment. The successful candidate will be expected to anticipate the Principal's requirements rather than simply respond to them, taking ownership of tasks from conception through to completion and ensuring that nothing is overlooked. The role will be based primarily in London, with international travel required from time to time. Key Responsibilities Executive Support & Gatekeeping: Manage complex schedules, prepare briefings, handle correspondence, and screen requests with absolute discretion. Travel & Logistics: Organise end-to-end international travel—private aviation, commercial flights, yachts, luxury lodging, visas, and security protocols. Property & Household Management: Oversee the London property portfolio and coordinate with global household teams, estate managers, chefs, and contractors ahead of arrivals. Lifestyle & VIP Concierge: Source luxury goods, manage high-value asset inventories (art, watches, cars), and secure access to exclusive dining, events, and experiences. Event Execution: Plan and manage private dinners, family holidays, and high-profile celebrations from concept to completion. Finance & Administration: Reconcile expenses, manage private invoices, track renewals, and liaise with accountants, banks, and the wider family office. THE IDEAL CANDIDATE The successful candidate will be a highly experienced Private PA who has worked for an UHNW individual, family, family office or similarly demanding private environment. You will be confident operating independently. This role requires an individual with genuine gravitas, maturity and judgement. A strong understanding of Middle Eastern culture, etiquette and family dynamics would be particularly valuable, together with the flexibility and sensitivity required when supporting a prominent international family.
