The Opportunity

A Family Office Manager is needed for an international UHNW family based in Venice, leading the financial and administrative operations of an active family office, multiple residences across Italy, and an established household environment. This is a senior seat with full ownership: finance and bookkeeping, administration, HR and payroll, property and supplier coordination, and asset administration all sit under this remit. Permanent, full-time. Start as soon as possible.

About the family and the family office

The Principals are an international family with multiple residences in Italy, an active family office, and internationally recognised cultural and environmental foundations. The administrative environment is multi-jurisdictional and complex: domestic and international payments, several entities, multiple property projects, vehicles and boats, ongoing dialogue with accountants, tax advisors, banks, fiduciaries, and external consultants, and the HR backbone that supports a private household team.

The family office is small, established, and trusted. The Family Office Manager is its operational centre: the person who owns the books, the records, the payments calendar, staff contracts and payroll, and the documentation that holds the operation together. The right person brings structure, precision, and continuity to a complex private environment, and is comfortable managing matters autonomously while liaising upward and outward across the family's professional network.

The role is based in Venice. Regular travel to Bologna is part of the rhythm. The household and family office are private and discreet by default. The work stays inside the family.

Why this role

This is the senior operational seat inside the family office. Finance, bookkeeping, administration, HR and payroll, property and supplier coordination, vehicle and asset administration: all sit under this role. The Principal is hiring for someone who has already run this scope inside a UHNW family office or multi-jurisdictional private household and can take ownership from day one. This is not a step-up role from a corporate finance or administrative seat without private-side family-office experience.

For someone who wants the breadth of a true family-office manager seat, the autonomy to run the operation without a layer of supervision, and the variety of multi-residence administration alongside foundation-adjacent context, this brief offers all of it inside a discreet, established environment.

Key Responsibilities

Finance, bookkeeping, and pre-accounting

  • Lead day-to-day bookkeeping and financial administration for the family office and private household entities.
  • Process domestic and international payments, bank transfers, supplier payments, and invoice registrations.

Requirements

Must-haves

  • Seven plus years already in a Family Office Manager, Head of Family Office Administration, Senior Family Office Accountant, or equivalent senior operational role within a UHNW family office, private office, or multi-jurisdictional household. This is not a step-up role; the family is hiring for confirmed family-office management experience.
  • Fluent English and Italian, written and spoken.

  • Proven track record in bookkeeping, financial administration, and pre-accounting coordination, including domestic and international payments and multi-entity records.

  • Prior exposure to foundations, philanthropic vehicles, or cultural and environmental entities adjacent to a family office.

Working in this family office

The work runs to a steady monthly rhythm anchored by reconciliations, payments, payroll, supplier cycles, and reporting to accountants and advisors. Around that rhythm sit the moving pieces of a multi-residence family: property projects, vehicle and boat administration, foundation-adjacent records, and the steady flow of correspondence and documentation that comes with a complex private environment.

The family office is small, established, and trusted. The Family Office Manager operates with autonomy, holds standards without being asked, and communicates cleanly with the family, with accountants and external advisors, with payroll and employment providers, and with suppliers. The cultural register is calm and discreet. The work is the work; the person doing it is steady, accurate, and quiet about it.

The Opportunity

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. This is a permanent, full-time, live-out role, on site five days a week from 10am to 6pm, with flexibility around the Principal's travel and projects. Start is as soon as possible: this is an urgent hire.

About the Principal and the household

The Principal is a UHNW individual with international business interests, a private foundation, and active involvement in film and broader philanthropic projects. Personal life is structured around West London, with regular short trips and the occasional longer period of travel for specific projects.

The household is established. A House Manager runs the residence day to day, supported by a security team. Children are part of the household and have their own logistics in the diary. The Principal is preparing to appoint a Chief of Staff in due course; the Senior Private PA will work closely with that role once it is in place, and in the interim is the senior point of coordination for the Principal's personal life.

The household operates with discretion. Staff are trusted, hold their own remits, and communicate cleanly with each other. The right Private PA is calm, organised, fully present, and able to hold the diary, the inbox, and the moving pieces of a busy private life without needing to be chased.

Why this role

This is a senior right-hand seat, not a junior PA step-up. The Principal is hiring for confirmed experience: someone who has already run the personal and household administration for a UHNW Principal or family, knows how a private office works, and can take ownership from day one.

The role is varied. The Principal's life spans business meetings, foundation work, film projects, philanthropic engagements, family logistics, and travel. The Senior Private PA holds the connective tissue across all of it. Once the Chief of Staff is in place, the role evolves with the structure around it; for the right person, that is part of the appeal.

Key Responsibilities

Diary, inbox, and Principal support

  • Own the Principal's diary end to end. Schedule, prioritise, protect, and rework as the day shifts. Maintain a clean weekly view and a clear week-ahead briefing.
  • Manage the Principal's personal inbox. Triage, draft, send, and follow up. Hold a clear sense of which conversations need the Principal's eyes and which sit with the PA.
  • Prepare briefing notes, agendas, and read-ahead packs for meetings, projects, and travel. Capture actions and own the follow-through.
  • Coordinate communication across the Principal's network: business contacts, foundation contacts, film and project collaborators, philanthropic partners, family, and staff.

Travel, projects, and household coordination

  • Plan and book travel: flights, ground, accommodation, restaurants, security liaison, document readiness. Build itineraries the Principal can read on a phone. Travel patterns range from two to three days a month to occasional longer periods abroad for specific projects.
  • Coordinate with the House Manager on the rhythm of the residence: meals, deliveries, guests, contractors, and household logistics that touch the Principal's day.
  • Support foundation, film, and philanthropic projects with diary, correspondence, contract trafficking to advisors, expense reconciliation, and event logistics. The PA does not run these projects; the PA makes them run smoothly around the Principal.
  • Coordinate the children's logistics where it intersects with the Principal's diary: school dates, activities, family travel, and the moving pieces that need a single point of order.

Finance, records, and discretion

  • Manage personal expenses, receipts, reconciliations, and reimbursements. Liaise with the family's accountants and advisors on routine items.
  • Maintain personal files, contacts, contracts, subscriptions, memberships, and renewals.
  • Handle confidential information with judgement and zero noise. The household is private; the Principal is private; the work stays inside the household.

Requirements

Must-haves

  • Five plus years in a Private PA, EA to a UHNW Principal, or equivalent senior household / private-office role. This is not a step-up role from a corporate EA seat without private-side experience; the Principal is hiring for confirmed Private PA experience.
  • Excellent spoken and written English. Polished, clear, and discreet in all communication.
  • Right to work in the United Kingdom.
  • Senior-level diary and inbox management for a busy Principal. Comfortable holding a complex calendar across business, foundation, family, and project work.
  • International travel planning to UHNW standard. Comfortable with private aviation, household-led logistics, and last-minute changes.
  • Strong written communication. Able to draft correspondence on the Principal's behalf in tone.
  • Sound financial discipline: expenses, reconciliations, and clean records.
  • Calm under pressure. Discreet by default. Resourceful when plans change. Able to hold standards without needing to be told what those standards are.
  • Comfortable operating with autonomy and accountability inside an established household team alongside a House Manager and security.

Strong advantage

  • Prior experience in a household that includes a House Manager, security, and other dedicated staff.
  • Exposure to foundation, philanthropic, or film/creative project administration alongside personal PA work.
  • Experience supporting a Principal through a Chief of Staff transition, or working alongside a Chief of Staff once appointed.
  • Additional languages welcome.

Working in this household

The on-site rhythm is 10am to 6pm, five days a week in West London. The household runs cleanly during those hours; the PA holds the centre of it. Outside of those hours, the PA stays reachable when the Principal is travelling or when something genuinely needs an answer; this is a senior role and the judgement to know when to engage is part of the brief.

The household is established and discreet. Staff are trusted, hold their own remits, and the Principal does not micromanage. The Senior Private PA is expected to bring order, anticipate, communicate cleanly, and protect the Principal's time without becoming a gate. The work is varied and the days are full; the right person finds the variety energising rather than scattering.

Practical Information

  • Contract: Full-time, permanent.
  • Start: As soon as possible. This is an urgent hire.
  • Reporting to: The Principal; coordinating with the House Manager day to day; working alongside the incoming Chief of Staff once appointed.
  • Hours: 10am to 6pm on site, five days a week, with flexibility around the Principal's travel and project schedule.
  • Location: West London. Live-out only.
  • Travel: Occasional, with the Principal or on the Principal's behalf. Typical pattern of two to three days a month, with occasional short-notice trips and very rare longer periods abroad for specific projects.
  • Salary: £80,000 to £90,000 gross per annum, dependent on experience.
  • Right to work in the UK required.
  • Standard NDA required.

Application Process

Please note: due to the high volume of applications we receive, we are only able to contact candidates who are successfully shortlisted. If you have not heard from us within 14 days of submitting your application, please assume that you have not been successful on this occasion.

The Opportunity

A long-established and highly regarded British membership organisation is hiring an Events and Marketing Officer to help deliver a large and varied annual events programme. Reporting to the Head of Events, you will plan, run, and evaluate a calendar of around 40 member events a year, spanning business, social, sporting, and major set-piece occasions. This is a full-time, permanent role based in central London, and a genuine opportunity to build an events career inside a respected British institution.

About the organisation

The organisation is a not-for-profit membership body with deep heritage and a strong national reputation. Its membership includes respected and well-known organisations from across British business, and the work sits at an interesting intersection of commerce, tradition, and public life.

It is a small, close-knit team based in central London. It runs an events programme that is both prestigious and unusually varied: business and educational events for members, social occasions, sporting fixtures, and major set-piece events. For an events professional, few employers offer this combination: the variety of a large annual programme, the standing of a respected institution, and the breadth of a small team where one role spans events, marketing, and member communications.

Why this role

This is a hands-on delivery role with real ownership. You will not simply support events. You will own specific events end to end, from planning and budgeting through to on-the-day delivery and post-event evaluation. You will work directly with the Head of Events on the shape of the annual calendar, contribute event concepts of your own, and build lasting relationships with venues, suppliers, sponsors, and member companies.

The organisation's team is small, which gives the role genuine breadth. Events sit alongside marketing and member communications, so the Officer moves between event logistics, e-newsletters, website content, social media, and reporting to senior management. For an events professional who wants variety, visible impact, and a strong platform to grow from, this is an unusually rich brief.

Key Responsibilities

Events programme delivery

  • Support the Head of Events in the strategic planning, delivery, execution, and evaluation of the full programme of around 40 events a year: business events such as seminars, workshops, and the AGM; social occasions; sporting fixtures; and major set-piece events.
  • Own and be accountable for specific events assigned to you, end to end, working to budget and to deadline.
  • Support the safe delivery of events: complete internal and external risk assessments, ensure compliance with the organisation's policies and procedures, and escalate risks to the Head of Events.
  • Help shape the annual events calendar, contributing new event concepts and continuous improvements aligned to the organisation's strategic priorities.

Operations, partnerships, and member engagement

  • Support the Head of Events in managing the events budget: forecasting, invoicing, and variance reporting.
  • Manage guest bookings, event order logging, and query monitoring. Prepare invitations and guest lists, liaise with venues and third-party suppliers, handle logistical arrangements and on-site coordination, and lead post-event follow-up including feedback collation.
  • Build and maintain relationships with venues, suppliers, sponsors, and member companies, securing partnerships and sponsorships that strengthen event delivery and member value.
  • Represent the organisation at events, coordinating staff and volunteers and ensuring a professional, high-quality member experience. Provide front-of-house support for the Events team, including the team telephone line and office queries.
  • Provide guidance to the team's Administrative Assistant, who supports event work from time to time.

Communications, marketing, and reporting

  • Work with the Head of Events and support the Director of Communications in managing member communications across the organisation's main channels.
  • Manage e-newsletters, website content, social media, and online promotions. Prepare the communications calendar and manage release dates. Collate copy and images from across the organisation and its stakeholders.
  • Maintain accurate use of the organisation's Salesforce database, track member engagement, and produce regular statistical reports for senior management.
  • Lead feedback collection and analysis, producing reports with actionable insight to improve future events. Develop event collateral and marketing outputs in line with brand guidelines.

Requirements

Must-haves

  • Proven experience in an events role, ideally events and marketing combined, with a track record of delivering events end to end.
  • Effective written and verbal communication, with meticulous, accurate attention to detail.
  • Strong interpersonal skills and a confident, professional manner in member-facing and customer-facing settings.
  • Excellent organisation and time management. You can carry several events at once and adapt calmly when priorities change.
  • Sound judgement and strong independent problem-solving. Comfortable working on your own initiative and as part of a small team.
  • Proficient with digital marketing tools and social media content. Strong Excel and MS Office skills, and confident updating website content.
  • Experience working with a database, and experience consulting with multiple stakeholders.
  • Flexibility to work evenings and occasional weekends when events require it. Time off in lieu is provided.
  • Right to work in the UK.

Strong advantage

  • Events experience in a B2B or membership-organisation environment.
  • Salesforce experience.
  • An interest in British business, heritage, and public life.

Working at the organisation

The team is small and the events programme is large, so the work has real pace and variety. No two weeks look the same: one might centre on the AGM, another on a major set-piece event, another on a members' networking evening or the production of an e-newsletter. The Officer is trusted with genuine ownership of their own events while supporting the wider programme.

The role is office-based for a minimum of four days a week, at the organisation's central London offices. Evening and occasional weekend work is part of the events calendar, and time off in lieu is provided to balance it. This is a permanent role with a clear remit and the scope to grow as the events professional grows.

Practical Information

  • Contract: Full-time, permanent.
  • Hours: 35 hours per week. Minimum four days a week in the office.
  • Start: July 2026.
  • Reporting to: Head of Events.
  • Salary: £36,000 to £40,000 gross per annum, dependent on experience.
  • Benefits: 25 days' annual leave and a contributory pension.
  • Location: Central London.
  • Evenings and occasional weekends required, with time off in lieu provided.
  • Right to work in the UK required.

Application Process

The Opportunity

A professional young family in Chiswick, West London, is hiring a Turkish-speaking after-school nanny to join the household from September 2026. The role is part-time during term-time and full days during school holidays, salaried year-round. You will care for the family's young daughter through the after-school window: pick-up from her Chiswick school, walk home, tea or early supper, active play, bath, and bedtime. The household already has a housekeeper who covers the day; this is a dedicated after-school nanny role for the right experienced career nanny.

About the family and the household

The family is a professional young couple in Chiswick. Both parents work during the week; one or both occasionally work from home, but daily care of their daughter in the after-school window sits with the nanny. The household is calm, warm, organised, and quiet. There are no other children, no pets, and no live-in staff. A housekeeper already covers the household during the day. This nanny role is purely the after-school window from pick-up to bedtime, with full-day cover during school holidays.

One parent is Turkish-speaking and one is a native English speaker. The family would like their daughter to grow up bilingual, with day-to-day Turkish exposure that she does not currently get at school or elsewhere. The reality of the household, though, is that daily communication runs in English. Their daughter understands Turkish but answers in English. The English-speaking parent is the primary communication partner for scheduling, household matters, and the daily handover. The right nanny is therefore genuinely bilingual: fluent in Turkish for the child's sake, and native or near-native in English for everything else. Excellent English is non-negotiable, not a "good enough to get by" requirement.

The family also values someone who is integrated in British family life and culture. Their daughter goes to a Chiswick school, has British school friends, follows British school routines, and operates in a British family context. The right nanny is comfortable with all of that and does not have to be taught how it works.

Why this role

This is a stable, long-term part-time role for the right career nanny. The family is not looking for someone passing through. They want to build a multi-year working relationship with one nanny who knows their daughter, their routines, and their family. The hours are deliberately compact: someone who can be fully present in the after-school window and who has the rest of her day for her own life.

Joining now also means coming in at the moment their daughter is settling into school for the first time. The after-school routine is being built around what she actually needs as the term unfolds. The right nanny will help shape that rhythm and grow with the child as she goes through her early school years.

Key Responsibilities

Daily care and the after-school routine

  • Walk to the Chiswick school for pick-up at around 3:30pm.
  • Walk the child home safely and calmly.
  • Provide a light tea or early supper. The family is happy to agree whether the nanny cooks fresh or warms something prepared. Either way, the standard is real, nutritious food, not snacks.
  • Bath, story, and bedtime. Get the child ready for bed and settled in good time.
  • Tidy her belongings and her room after the day. Leave the house cleanly handed over at the end of the shift.

Active play, learning, and Turkish exposure

  • Active play in the home, garden, or local parks. The default after-school window is movement, fresh air, and conversation, not screen-time.
  • Activities such as swimming, ball games, soft play, gym sessions, or local children's classes where appropriate. The weekly rhythm is agreed together.
  • Genuine, natural Turkish conversation with the child throughout your time together. Singing, reading, playing, naming things, telling stories. This is the simplest and most effective way for her to keep her Turkish alive.
  • Reading at bedtime in both languages, with the choice of book agreed by what she is enjoying that week.

Household coordination

  • Handover from the housekeeper at the start of the shift, and to the parents at the end of the shift. Brief, written or verbal, covering what she ate, how she was, and anything notable.
  • Liaison with the parents during the day on schedule changes, small messages, and any logistical adjustments.
  • Care for the child's belongings, clothes, school bag, and small items so that things are not lost across the week.

  • Native or fluent Turkish. Confident speaking Turkish naturally with a small child, not as a stilted language exercise. You can sing nursery rhymes, tell stories, name foods, play games, and have a real back-and-forth with a child in Turkish.
  • Native or near-native English, written and verbal. This is non-negotiable, not a "good enough to get by" requirement. You will speak English with the English-speaking parent every day, and increasingly with the child, who answers in English.
  • Fully integrated in British family life and culture. Comfortable with the British school system, British social norms, and the way British families approach early childhood. You understand how a British primary school day works, what an after-school routine looks like here, and what the unwritten rules are.
  • Proven experience caring for children aged three to six, including school pick-up and the after-school routine. This is not a step-up from babysitting; the family is hiring for confirmed career-nanny experience.
  • Genuine warmth and patience. Calm, kind, present. The child should look forward to seeing you each afternoon.
  • Active and willing. The after-school window is play, parks, swimming, and activities, not screens.
  • Living in West London. Chiswick, Acton, Hammersmith, Ealing, or somewhere within a thirty-minute door-to-door commute.
  • Up-to-date paediatric first aid certificate, or willingness to obtain one before starting.
  • Enhanced DBS check, or willingness to obtain one before starting.
  • Right to work in the United Kingdom.
  • Checkable references from comparable private family roles.

Strong advantage

  • Norland, NNEB, or other recognised childcare qualifications.
  • Driving licence. Not required but useful for the occasional rainy-day errand or wider activity.
  • Experience with children entering reception or starting school: knowledge of the tiredness, the social adjustments, the routines that work in that first year.

Working in this household

The week runs in a steady rhythm. School day, school pick-up at around 3:30pm, afternoon and evening with the nanny, bedtime by around 7:00 or 7:30pm, and parents back from work. Saturdays and Sundays are generally family days. Occasional Saturday daytime or weekday evening babysitting can be agreed in advance, with paid hours at the same gross hourly rate.

During school holidays, roughly thirteen weeks a year, broken across half-terms, Christmas, Easter, and summer, the role extends to full days. Typical pattern is 10:00am to 7:30 or 8:00pm Monday to Friday, depending on the week and what activities the family has planned. The salary is paid year-round so the nanny has stable income, and the rhythm of the holiday weeks is agreed together as they come.

The household is small, calm, and uncluttered. The nanny is the consistent adult presence with the child in the after-school window. The family expects that relationship to be the centre of the role.

Practical Information

  • Start: September 2026.
  • Days: Monday to Friday. Some flexibility for the right person; occasional Saturday or evening babysitting agreed in advance and paid at the same gross hourly rate.
  • Hours during term-time: 3:00pm to 7:30 or 8:00pm.
  • Hours during school holidays: Full days, typically 10:00am to 7:30 or 8:00pm Monday to Friday.
  • Salary: £18 to £22 gross per hour. All-year salaried; equivalent annual figure agreed at offer based on the agreed rate.
  • Location: Chiswick, West London.
  • Live-out only.
  • Driving licence preferred but not required.

The Opportunity

A professional young family in Chiswick, West London, is hiring an experienced part-time after-school nanny to join the household from September 2026. The role is the after-school window: pick-up from a Chiswick school at around 3:30pm, walk home, tea or early supper, active play, bath, and bedtime. The household already has a housekeeper who covers the day; this is a dedicated after-school nanny role. Part-time during term-time, full days during school holidays, salaried year-round.

About the family and the household

The family is a professional young couple in Chiswick. Both parents work during the week; one or both occasionally work from home, but daily care of their daughter in the after-school window sits with the nanny. The household is calm, warm, organised, and quiet. There are no other children, no pets, and no live-in staff. A housekeeper already covers the household during the day. This nanny role is purely the after-school window from school pick-up to bedtime, with full-day cover during school holidays.

The family wants their daughter cared for by someone who is fully present in the after-school window: someone who will walk her home from school, feed her properly, get her outside or active, and read with her before bed. The right nanny is more interested in her than in screens, has the experience to set good rhythms, and is the kind of person both the parents and the child look forward to seeing each afternoon. The family does not micromanage; they trust the professionals they hire and want a nanny who can run the after-school window with judgement and warmth.

The household operates in English. The family values someone who is integrated in British family life and culture: comfortable with the British school system, British social norms, and the way British families approach early childhood. Their daughter goes to a Chiswick school, has British school friends, follows British school routines, and operates in a British family context. The right nanny is comfortable with all of that and does not have to be taught how it works.

Why this role

This is a stable, long-term part-time role for the right career nanny. The family is not looking for someone passing through. They want to build a multi-year working relationship with one nanny who knows their daughter, their routines, and their family. The hours are deliberately compact: someone who can be fully present in the after-school window and who has the rest of her day for her own life.

Joining now also means coming in at the moment their daughter is settling into school for the first time. The after-school routine is being built around what she actually needs as the term unfolds. The right nanny will help shape that rhythm and grow with the child as she goes through her early school years.

Key Responsibilities

Daily care and the after-school routine

  • Walk to the Chiswick school for pick-up at around 3:30pm.
  • Walk the child home safely and calmly.
  • Provide a light tea or early supper. The family is happy to agree whether the nanny cooks fresh or warms something prepared. Either way, the standard is real, nutritious food, not snacks.
  • Bath, story, and bedtime. Get the child ready for bed and settled in good time.
  • Tidy her belongings and her room after the day. Leave the house cleanly handed over at the end of the shift.

Active play, learning, and outdoor time

  • Active play in the home, garden, or local parks. The default after-school window is movement, fresh air, and conversation, not screen-time.
  • Activities such as swimming, ball games, soft play, gym sessions, or local children's classes where appropriate. The weekly rhythm is agreed together.
  • Reading at bedtime, with the choice of book agreed by what the child is enjoying that week.
  • Drawing, role-play, simple cooking together, garden time. The right nanny brings ideas and energy, not a fixed curriculum.

Household coordination

  • Handover from the housekeeper at the start of the shift, and to the parents at the end of the shift. Brief, written or verbal, covering what she ate, how she was, and anything notable.
  • Liaison with the parents during the day on schedule changes, small messages, and any logistical adjustments.
  • Care for the child's belongings, clothes, school bag, and small items so that things are not lost across the week.

Requirements

Must-haves

  • Native or near-native English, written and verbal. Confident communicating clearly with the family and with the child.
  • Proven experience caring for children aged three to six, including school pick-up and the after-school routine. This is not a step-up from babysitting; the family is hiring for confirmed career-nanny experience.
  • Genuine warmth and patience. Calm, kind, present. The child should look forward to seeing you each afternoon.
  • Active and willing. The after-school window is play, parks, swimming, and activities, not screens.
  • Fully integrated in British family life and culture. Comfortable with the British school system, British social norms, and the way British families approach early childhood.

  • Living in West London. Chiswick, Acton, Hammersmith, Ealing, or somewhere within a thirty-minute door-to-door commute.
  • Up-to-date paediatric first aid certificate, or willingness to obtain one before starting.
  • Enhanced DBS check, or willingness to obtain one before starting.
  • Right to work in the United Kingdom.
  • Checkable references from comparable private family roles.

Strong advantage

  • Career nanny with grown-up children, or otherwise free of school-age dependents of your own at after-school pick-up times.
  • Norland, NNEB, or other recognised childcare qualifications.
  • Driving licence. Not required but useful for the occasional rainy-day errand or wider activity.
  • Experience with children entering reception or starting school: knowledge of the tiredness, the social adjustments, the routines that work in that first year.

The Opportunity

A Travelling Personal Assistant is needed for a single ultra-high-net-worth Principal establishing Miami as his primary residence. The role sits within the Principal's Single Family Office and reports to the Head of Administration. It combines private PA support, lifestyle and social coordination, concierge-level service, and complex international travel logistics. This is a high-trust, hands-on, twelve-month-a-year position with extensive international travel often at short notice. Six-day working week. 24/7 availability mindset.

About the Single Family Office and Principal

The Single Family Office runs more like a private office than a traditional family office: relaxed, dynamic, informal, fast. The administrative team is young, intellectually curious, and prizes judgement and quick thinking over hierarchy and protocol. The Principal values intelligent people who can hold their own in fluid, high-stakes situations.

The Principal is a single ultra-high-net-worth individual with international business interests and a multi-residence portfolio. Miami is becoming his primary residence, with extensive international travel for business and personal commitments throughout the year. The Principal is described as commercially sharp, direct, and high-trust once trust is earned.

This role sits alongside other Executive and Personal Assistants and household staff. Coverage, continuity, and clean handovers across the team matter as much as individual capability. The successful candidate will be collaborative, operationally strong, socially confident, and comfortable working in a multi-assistant Private Office structure.

Why this role

The role joins at the moment the Principal establishes Miami as his new primary base. The early months involve building the rhythm of the office, the Principal's Miami routine, and the supplier and contact network. For a Travelling PA who has supported principal-direct work in international travel-heavy environments, the role offers both the build of something new and the structure of an established Single Family Office around you. You are never the only assistant; you are part of a tight group that covers each other.

Key Responsibilities

Personal Assistant and Single Family Office support

  • Provide day-to-day private PA support to the Principal and the wider administrative function. Manage appointments, reminders, schedules, and personal administration with precision.
  • Work closely with other Executive and Personal Assistants to ensure seamless coverage across locations and time zones. Maintain clear communication, structured handovers, and consistent follow-through.
  • Support household payments, salary processing, and related administrative coordination where required. Track action lists, manage deadlines, and maintain high operational standards.
  • Maintain and update guest lists, tracking spreadsheets, passport copies, and required documentation. Liaise with security and trusted third parties to ensure protocols are followed.

Travel, lifestyle, and concierge

  • Travel with the Principal as required, often at short notice. Coordinate end-to-end international travel: flights, accommodation, transfers, drivers, reservations, appointments, and last-minute changes.
  • Maintain continuity of service and standards across multiple international locations.
  • Coordinate social plans, evenings, guests, and lifestyle arrangements with discretion. Liaise with venues, trusted contacts, drivers, and third parties to deliver a seamless experience.
  • Coordinate guest arrivals, departures, transport, and on-the-ground logistics. Support the Principal's daily movements and schedule in Miami and while travelling.
  • Handle ad hoc lifestyle requests efficiently, including urgent or last-minute changes.

Household, sourcing, and logistics

  • Liaise with contractors and suppliers for urgent repairs and household maintenance. Coordinate local service bookings and household requirements alongside the on-site household team.
  • Manage personal shopping and sourcing: clothing, medicines, groceries, household items. Handle online orders, delivery schedules, returns, and urgent sourcing.
  • Oversee pet care logistics, including vet appointments, food and medication coordination, where required.
  • Complete ad hoc in-person errands as required.

Requirements

Must-haves

  • Three plus years already as a Private PA, Lifestyle PA, Travelling PA, Executive Assistant in a Single Family Office or Private Office, or equivalent senior support role to a UHNW Principal or C-suite leader. This is not a step-up role; the Principal is hiring for confirmed experience.
  • Confirmed track record in international travel logistics, lifestyle coordination, and discreet Principal-direct support.
  • Native or near-native English, written and verbal.
  • US citizen or Green Card holder.
  • Strong, current working knowledge of Miami. You know the restaurants, events, wellness scene, social calendar, venues, and rhythm of the city. This is not a city someone can fake.
  • Sharp judgement and intellectual agility. The Principal and the Single Family Office prize clear thinking and quick decision-making.
  • Exceptional organisational capacity and attention to detail. You hold complex moving parts in your head and you do not drop them.
  • Calm under pressure. Discreet. Confidential. Comfortable with sensitive information at the household, family, and business level.
  • Confident with technology for bookings, online purchases, payments, tracking systems, shared calendars, and modern messaging channels.
  • Genuine 24/7 availability mindset. The hours are not fixed; the work follows the Principal's rhythm. Six-day working week.
  • Comfortable with extensive international travel at short notice.
  • Miami-based or able to commute reliably from broader South Florida.
  • Comfortable signing a Non-Disclosure Agreement.

Strong advantage

  • Experience working in a multi-assistant team where coverage, handover, and collaboration matter.
  • Familiarity supporting international UHNW principals across cultures.
  • Comfort working alongside investment-side colleagues in a Single Family Office structure.
  • Additional languages welcome.

Working in this Single Family Office

The administrative function is young, intellectually engaged, and operates with the informality of a private office: less protocol, more judgement; less hierarchy, more shared responsibility. The team is collaborative and the work is intense in patches and quieter in others, depending on where the Principal is and what he is doing.

The Travelling PA role specifically is structured to travel with the Principal when needed and to hold the fort in Miami when others are travelling. Continuity across the multi-assistant team is the operating principle.

This is a true Private PA and Lifestyle role, not an office-based corporate assistant role. Hours are not fixed and may include late finishes, travel days that span time zones, and weekends. The compensation reflects this and the work culture is built around sustainability over time rather than burnout.

Practical Information

  • Contract: Full-time, permanent.
  • Start: Immediate. The Principal is establishing Miami as his primary residence and the support team is building in parallel.
  • Reporting to: Head of Administration within the Single Family Office.
  • Schedule: Six-day working week with full flexibility. 24/7 availability mindset essential. Hours are not fixed.
  • Travel: Extensive international travel with the Principal, often at short notice. Twelve-month-a-year role; the Principal travels throughout the year.
  • Location: Miami-based or able to commute reliably from broader South Florida.
  • Live-in: This is a live-out role. Live-in may be exceptionally considered for the right candidate but is not the default.
  • Salary: $85,000 to $115,000 gross per annum, dependent on experience, plus benefits.
  • Right to work: US citizen or Green Card holder required.
  • Standard NDA required.

Application Process

Please note: due to the high volume of applications we receive, we are only able to contact candidates who are successfully shortlisted. If you have not heard from us within 14 days of submitting your application, please assume that you have not been successful on this occasion.

The Opportunity

A House Manager is needed for a newly acquired private residence in Miami, supporting a single ultra-high-net-worth Principal making Miami his primary base later this year. You will lead day-to-day operations and a small on-site household team of three Housekeepers, a private chef, and a driver. The role begins as a setup hire ahead of full move-in and reports to the Global House Manager, who travels in from time to time and otherwise oversees the wider multi-residence portfolio.

About the Residence and Household

The residence is a private home being established as the Principal's primary base in Miami from late 2026, with travel back and forth in the months before move-in. The Principal travels frequently and unpredictably throughout the year; the residence must always be ready to host on short notice, or to sit quietly for weeks at a time, depending on the schedule.

The Principal is a single ultra-high-net-worth individual with international business interests and a multi-residence portfolio. Miami is becoming the primary residence and the centre of his US household. He is described as commercially sharp, direct, and high-trust once trust is earned.

The on-site team you will lead is intentionally lean: three Housekeepers, a private chef, and a driver. The Housekeepers serve as well as clean. There is no butler. The Principal has been clear that he wants the team to step in across all forms of household support: housekeeping, laundry and wardrobe care, informal service, guest preparation, and light hosting. A small dog lives at the residence. The reporting line above this role is the Global House Manager.

Why this role

This is a setup hire. You will help bring a new private residence to life from a blank canvas: standards, household manuals, the supplier list, household systems, daily and weekly routines, inventories, and the rhythm of the house. The hard work of the first six months defines how the residence runs for years afterwards.

You will work directly with the Global House Manager during the setup phase, with possible travel to support the Principal at other residences and hotels. For a House Manager who has run an established household for years and wants the chance to build one properly from day one, this brief is genuinely different from the typical placement. It is closer in shape to opening a new luxury residence than to taking over an existing one.

Key Responsibilities

Residence setup and household operations

  • Set up the residence ahead of the Principal's full move-in: define household standards, build the household manual, source and onboard suppliers, design household systems, embed routines, and complete the inventory.
  • Once occupied, run day-to-day operations across the residence. Walk the home daily, anticipate needs, and resolve issues before they surface to the Principal.
  • Maintain household manuals, contact lists, supplier files, and operational notes so that the residence runs even when you are not on site.
  • Manage stock levels, purchasing, and basic budgets across cleaning supplies, pantry, flowers, household consumables, and guest amenities.

Leading a small, service-led team

  • Lead the on-site team of three Housekeepers, the private chef, and the driver. Hold standards, communicate expectations clearly, and protect the culture of the household.
  • Coordinate daily tasks across housekeeping, laundry, wardrobe care, household organisation, and informal service. The Housekeepers serve drinks, refresh rooms, and assist with guest arrivals; everyone in the team is service-capable.
  • Liaise with the Global House Manager on cross-residence coordination, hiring decisions, and reporting upward to the Principal where required.

Vendors, maintenance, and contractors

  • Coordinate vendors, contractors, deliveries, and maintenance for a luxury residence. Build a trusted Miami supplier network from scratch where one does not exist.
  • Report and follow up on repairs, service visits, and household maintenance, with clear records and clean handoffs.
  • Manage building-level relationships, including concierge, building management and security, where the residence sits within a condominium structure.

The Principal's day and presentation

  • Ensure the residence is prepared according to the Principal's preferences. Given his unpredictable travel pattern, the residence must be ready to host or to receive him at short notice.
  • Lead the team in receiving guests with appropriate discretion and warmth, in the absence of formal butler structure.
  • Care for the resident small dog day-to-day in coordination with the team.

Requirements

Must-haves

  • Five plus years already in a House Manager, Executive Housekeeper, Residence Manager, Household Director, or equivalent senior household role within a UHNW or HNW private residence. This is not a step-up role; the Principal is hiring for confirmed experience.
  • Excellent spoken and written English.
  • US citizen or Green Card holder.
  • Hands-on operational instincts. You walk the residence, check rooms, supervise staff, and step in practically. This is not a desk-based role.
  • Demonstrable experience supervising a small household team and coordinating vendors, contractors, stock, and basic budgets.
  • Calm and discreet under pressure. The residence must look effortless even when the Principal is travelling, returning at short notice, or hosting unexpectedly.
  • Comfortable communicating clearly with a Global House Manager based outside the residence, including by phone and written brief.

Strong advantage

  • Setup or new-residence opening experience: another private residence opening, a luxury hotel pre-opening, a yacht commissioning, or a serviced residence launch.
  • Strong local knowledge of Miami and South Florida: trusted suppliers, contractors, building management contacts, neighbourhoods, household logistics.
  • Background in luxury hospitality, yacht interiors, or serviced residences alongside private household experience.
  • Comfortable working in a small household where the team is intentionally lean and roles overlap deliberately.
  • Comfortable with pets, including a small dog in residence.
  • Additional languages welcome.

Working in this household

The day-to-day in a UHNW Miami private residence with a single Principal and unpredictable travel sits between two patterns. When the Principal is in residence, the household runs at full pace: meals prepared, schedules anticipated, guests received, the small dog cared for, every surface refreshed. When the Principal is away, which can be weeks at a time, the household shifts to maintenance mode: deep cleaning, project work, supplier reviews, and preparing for the next return. Staff take holiday during these quieter windows; the household team is structured around the Principal's rhythm rather than a fixed week.

The cultural register is service-capable rather than formal. The Principal does not want a butler. He values calm, consistent, intelligent staff who can move between cleaning a room, serving a drink, receiving a guest, and walking the dog without changing posture. The House Manager sets the tone for this and protects it as the team grows.

Practical Information

  • Contract: Full-time, permanent.
  • Start: Immediate. Setup phase ahead of the Principal's full move-in towards the end of 2026, with travel possible during this period.
  • Reporting to: Global House Manager, off-site, with occasional on-site visits to Miami.
  • Working pattern: Flexible around the Principal's unpredictable travel. Staff take holiday when the Principal is away.
  • Languages: Fluent English required. Additional languages welcome.
  • Travel: Occasional travel with the Principal across other residences and hotels during the setup phase and beyond.
  • Pet: Small dog in residence.
  • Live-in or live-out: Live-in accommodation may be considered for the right candidate; live-out is equally welcome.
  • Salary: $100,000 to $150,000 gross per annum, dependent on experience, plus benefits and discretionary bonus.
  • Right to work: US citizen or Green Card holder required.
  • Standard NDA required.

Application Process

Please note: due to the high volume of applications we receive, we are only able to contact candidates who are successfully shortlisted. If you have not heard from us within 14 days of submitting your application, please assume that you have not been successful on this occasion.

The Opportunity

Three experienced Housekeepers are needed for a newly acquired private residence in Miami, supporting a single ultra-high-net-worth Principal who is making Miami his primary base later this year. The household operates without a butler; the Housekeepers cover cleaning, laundry, wardrobe care, and informal service in equal measure. The role begins as a setup hire ahead of full move-in and settles into maintaining the residence to immaculate standards day-to-day. Reports to the House Manager on site.

About the Residence and Household

The residence is a private home being established as the Principal's primary base in Miami from late 2026, with travel back and forth in the months before move-in. The Principal travels frequently and unpredictably throughout the year; the household must be ready to host on short notice, or to sit quietly for weeks at a time, depending on the schedule.

The household team is intentionally lean for a residence at this level: a House Manager, three Housekeepers, this role is for one of three openings, a private chef, and a driver. The Housekeepers serve as well as clean. There is no butler. A small dog lives at the residence.

The House Manager runs the on-site team and reports to a Global House Manager who oversees the wider multi-residence portfolio.

Why this role

This is a setup hire. You will help bring a new private residence to life: working with the House Manager to establish housekeeping standards, set up wardrobes and linen cupboards, learn the Principal's preferences, identify reliable local suppliers and dry cleaners, and embed the rhythms of the house from a blank canvas. The first six months define how the residence runs for years afterwards.

Possible travel during the setup phase to support the Principal at other residences or hotels. For a Housekeeper who has run established households for years and wants the chance to build one properly from day one, this brief is genuinely different from the typical placement.

Key Responsibilities

Housekeeping and presentation

  • Maintain the residence to immaculate private household standards through daily cleaning, regular deep cleans, and seasonal projects across bedrooms, bathrooms, living areas, kitchens, guest spaces, and back-of-house.
  • Care for fine surfaces, delicate materials, artwork, antiques, fabrics, and luxury finishes with appropriate technique.
  • Conduct daily walk-throughs of the rooms you cover, refreshing as needed so the residence is consistently ready for use.
  • Keep storage, cupboards, pantries, and household supplies organised and well stocked. Monitor inventory and flag reorders to the House Manager.

Laundry, wardrobe, and linen care

  • Manage laundry, ironing, steaming, and folding to a high standard. Care for delicate fabrics, luxury garments, linens, towels, and guest items with appropriate processes for each material.
  • Support wardrobe organisation, seasonal rotation, packing, and unpacking when the Principal travels. Maintain wardrobes in order at all times.
  • Liaise with trusted dry cleaners and external service providers as needed. Build relationships with reliable local Miami suppliers.
  • Maintain linen cupboards and laundry areas in excellent order.

Service and household support

  • Step in to serve drinks, refreshments, and light food when the Principal or guests are in residence. The team works without a butler; everyone is service-capable.
  • Assist with guest arrivals, room preparation, turn-down service, and informal hosting.
  • Respond to requests promptly, calmly, and professionally. Maintain a warm, discreet presence in the home.
  • Run occasional errands and receive deliveries. Help care for the resident small dog day-to-day in coordination with the wider team.

Requirements

Must-haves

  • Proven experience already as a Housekeeper in a UHNW or HNW private residence, luxury hotel, yacht, villa, or comparable high-end environment. This is not a step-up role; the Principal is hiring for confirmed housekeeping experience.
  • Excellent spoken and written English.
  • US citizen or Green Card holder.
  • Excellent housekeeping standards with strong attention to detail. You take real pride in presentation, in caring for materials properly, and in noticing what others miss.
  • Strong laundry, ironing, and wardrobe care skills. You understand how to handle delicate fabrics, luxury garments, and fine linens.
  • Service-capable. You are comfortable stepping in to serve drinks, refreshments, and light food when the Principal or guests are in residence. This household has no butler.
  • Comfortable with pets, including a small dog in residence, and flexible with hours when the Principal is in residence or hosting.
  • Discreet, polished, and professional at all times.

Strong advantage

  • Setup or new-residence opening experience.
  • Yacht interior or stewardess background with strong service standards. Yacht stewardesses transitioning to land are well-suited to this role: laundry discipline, service across the cleaning and hosting boundary, and comfort with high-trust principals all transfer directly.
  • Strong local Miami knowledge: trusted dry cleaners, household suppliers, and the rhythm of South Florida.
  • Additional languages welcome.
  • Knowledge of luxury fabrics, wardrobe care, table presentation, flower care, or informal service patterns.
  • Comfortable in a small, close-knit household team where roles overlap deliberately.

Working in this household

The day-to-day in a UHNW Miami private residence with a single Principal and unpredictable travel runs in two modes. When the Principal is in residence, the household runs at full pace: meals prepared, rooms refreshed throughout the day, guests received, the small dog cared for. When the Principal is away, which can be weeks at a time, the household shifts to maintenance and project mode: deep cleaning, wardrobe rotation, supplier reviews, restocking, and preparing the residence for return. Staff take holiday during these quieter windows; the schedule is structured around the Principal's rhythm rather than a fixed week.

The cultural register is service-capable rather than formal. The Principal does not want a butler. He values calm, consistent, intelligent staff who can move between cleaning a room, serving a drink, walking the dog, and preparing a wardrobe without changing posture. Housekeepers from luxury hospitality, yacht interiors, or serviced residences typically settle into this register quickly.
