  • Location: Miami, Florida
  • Salary: $85,000 to $115,000 gross per annum, dependent on experience, plus benefits
  • Contract: Full-time, permanent
  • Working Pattern: Six-day working week. 24/7 availability mindset. Hours are not fixed and follow the Principal's rhythm.
  • Languages: Native or near-native English. Spanish essential.
  • Right to Work: US citizen or Green Card holder required. No visa sponsorship.

Overview

Oplu is leading the search for a Personal Assistant to a single ultra-high-net-worth Principal. The role sits within the Principal's Single Family Office, reports to the Chief of Administration, and works alongside another PA already in position.

This is a team-based private PA position. The centre of gravity is day-to-day principal-direct support and social coordination. The Principal entertains, but not every night; the Principal travels, but not every week.

The Opportunity

The Single Family Office runs more like a private office than a traditional family office: informal, fast, judgement-led. The administrative team is young, intellectually curious, and prizes clear thinking over hierarchy. The Principal is commercially sharp, direct, and high-trust once trust is earned.

The successful candidate will hold a critical position in the Principal's Miami life. Continuity, clean handovers, and coverage across the PA pair matter as much as individual capability. The compensation reflects the intensity of the role and the six-day rhythm.

Who this role suits

An early-career Personal Assistant with one to three years' principal-direct experience, or a graduate from a top university with strong support-side internships and the drive to step straight into a UHNW position.

The right candidate is intellectually sharp, socially confident, and genuinely fluent in Miami: the restaurants, the wellness scene, the venue and service-provider network that a UHNW principal would actually use. Not the surface-level Miami of a tourist; the working Miami of someone who lives it.

Fluent Spanish is essential. Additional languages welcome.

This role is not for someone who wants a nine-to-five, a fixed calendar, or a role framed primarily as social. Hours follow the Principal, six days a week, with a 24/7 availability mindset and a genuinely commercial motivation on compensation.

Key Responsibilities

Principal-direct personal assistance

  • Day-to-day private PA support to the Principal: appointments, reminders, schedules, personal administration.
  • Manage the Principal's daily movements and diary in Miami with precision and discretion.
  • Handle personal correspondence, follow-ups, and action lists to closure.
  • Coordinate personal shopping, sourcing, online orders, deliveries, and returns.
  • Ad hoc in-person errands.

Team coverage within the Single Family Office

  • Work closely with the other PA and the Chief of Administration to ensure seamless coverage across locations and time zones.
  • Maintain clear communication, structured handovers, and consistent follow-through with the wider administrative team.
  • Support household payments, tracking, and related administrative coordination where required.

Guest and lifestyle coordination

  • Support the Principal's social plans, dinners, and guest arrangements when required, in coordination with the wider team.
  • Maintain the Principal's Miami network of restaurants, venues, wellness providers, and trusted contacts.
  • Secure reservations, access, and arrangements at short notice.
  • Maintain and update guest lists and required documentation.

Travel support

  • Coordinate travel when the Principal is on the move: flights, accommodation, transfers, drivers, reservations, on-the-ground logistics.
  • Occasional travel with the Principal when the trip specifically requires it. This is not the primary Travelling PA position; extensive travel is not expected.

Household and supplier coordination

  • Liaise with drivers, contractors, venues, and trusted third parties.
  • Pet care logistics where required (vet appointments, food, medication).
  • Coordinate household and service requirements alongside the on-site household team.

Requirements

Must-haves

  • One to three years' experience as a Personal Assistant, Lifestyle PA, or Private PA to a UHNW or HNW Principal, within a private household, Single Family Office, or Private Office. Recent graduates from a top-tier university with strong principal-support internships also considered.
  • Native or near-native English, written and verbal. Spanish essential.
  • Strong current working knowledge of Miami: restaurants, wellness, events, venues, and the service network a UHNW principal actually uses. Not surface-level.
  • Strong academic background, ideally from a top-ranked university.
  • Sharp judgement, intellectual agility, and the ability to read rooms, people, and situations quickly and correctly.
  • Exceptional organisational capacity and attention to detail; holds complex moving parts and does not drop them.
  • Calm under pressure. Discreet. Confidential.
  • Confident with technology for bookings, payments, tracking systems, shared calendars, and modern messaging channels.
  • Commercially motivated. Six-day working week; 24/7 availability mindset; comfortable with hours that follow the Principal's rhythm, including late finishes and weekends.
  • US citizen or Green Card holder. No visa sponsorship offered.
  • Miami-based or able to commute reliably from broader South Florida.
  • Comfortable signing a standard Non-Disclosure Agreement.

Strong advantage

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

Preferred background

  • Early-career Personal Assistant from a UHNW private household, Single Family Office, or Private Office in Miami, New York, Los Angeles, or a comparable international city.
  • Graduate from a top-ranked university with strong support-side internships and a clear appetite for a UHNW principal-direct seat.

Practical Information

  • Live-in: This is a live-out position. Live-in may be considered by exception for the right candidate but is not the default.
  • Standard NDA required.

Founder's Associate, Sustainability Investment Firm, West London

  • Location: West London, in-office
  • Salary: £35,000 to £50,000 gross p.a. dependent on experience
  • Contract: Full-time, permanent
  • Working Pattern: 5 days in office. One day WFH negotiable when the Founder is out
  • Reporting To: Founder
  • Start Date: ASAP

Job Overview:

Oplu is leading the search for a Founder's Associate at a growing founder-led investment firm in West London. The firm makes venture capital, angel, and direct investments focused on sustainability.

 

This is a Founder's Associate role in the venture and angel investment world: a 1:1 seat alongside the Founder across the full investment pipeline, from sourcing and investor outreach through to follow-up and close. It combines deal and investor coordination with the organisational support that keeps a founder-led firm moving. It is not a traditional EA or PA position.

 

The Founder is hiring someone to grow into the business. You will own the investor pipeline from day one: tracking live opportunities, keeping investor conversations moving, and making sure nothing goes quiet once a deck has been sent. You will sit in on deal flow and investment discussions from the start. Over time the remit is expected to expand into deal execution, investor relations, and wider business development, with a path towards a senior investment or Chief of Staff position as the firm scales.

 

This role suits a sharp, curious early-career professional with a strong academic background and a genuine interest in investment and sustainability. You may be a Founder's Associate at a VC-backed startup or investment firm, a junior analyst at a VC, angel network, or impact fund, or someone with 1 to 3 years in consulting, banking, or a founder-led environment who wants closer proximity to deals and decision-making.

Key Responsibilities:

Investor pipeline and deal flow

  • Own the investor and deal pipeline: track live opportunities, log every touchpoint, and keep the Founder's view current.
  • Coordinate investor outreach and follow-up, including chasing responses once materials such as pitch decks have been sent.
  • Liaise with investors, portfolio companies, and prospective counterparties on the Founder's behalf.
  • Support investor roadshows and meetings: scheduling, logistics, preparation, and follow-through.
  • Research prospective investors and companies and contribute to deal flow and investment discussions.

 

Preparation and follow-up

  • Prepare pre-reads, briefing notes, and background on companies and investors ahead of meetings.
  • Capture actions from meetings and drive them to completion.

 

Founder support

  • Manage the Founder's diary and correspondence where it relates to investment and business activity.
  • Support business development, marketing, and recruitment activity as required.
  • Handle light personal administration alongside the professional remit.

Must-have Requirements:

  • Strong academic background, ideally from a Russell Group or comparable university, with evidence of high intellectual ability.
  • 1 to 3 years' experience in a startup, investment, VC, or founder-led environment.
  • Highly organised, with the discipline to run follow-ups and keep multiple workstreams on track without prompting.
  • Confident written and verbal communication with senior external contacts, by phone and by email.
  • An active listener who asks precise questions rather than filling silence.
  • Self-directed, high energy, and comfortable with a remit that will change shape as the firm grows.
  • Genuine interest in investment and sustainability as a market focus.
  • Willingness and ability to work 5 days per week in the West London office.
  • Right to live and work in the UK.

Languages:

  • Fluent English, spoken and written.

Nice to have:

  • Prior experience as a Founder's Associate, in Chief of Staff support, or as a junior VC or investment analyst.
  • Exposure to investor relations, fundraising, deal flow, or due diligence.
  • Experience at a management consultancy, investment bank, or high-growth startup.
  • Comfort with modern productivity and AI tools for note-taking, summarisation, and drafting.
  • Preferred background: early-career professional from a founder-led, VC-backed, or investment setting with clear appetite to develop into a deal-facing or Chief of Staff role.

Why this role:

  • Full ownership of the investor pipeline from day one, working 1:1 with the Founder.
  • A seat in deal flow and investment discussions from the start.
  • A defined path from coordination into deal work and investor relations as the firm scales.
  • Sustainability sector focus for candidates who care about impact.
  • Modern West London office environment.
  • 5 days in office, with one day WFH negotiable.

 

Please note: Due to the high volume of applications we receive, we regret that 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.

Location: Central London (minimum 4 days per week in the office) 

Salary: £50,000 gross per annum + benefits (25 days holiday, contributory pension) 

Contract: Full-time, permanent 

Hours: 35 per week 

Reporting To: Executive Director 

Direct Reports: Events and Marketing Officer 

Start Date: As soon as possible

Overview

Oplu is leading the search for a Head of Events at a confidential British not-for-profit organisation with deep heritage and a strong national reputation. Based in central London, the successful candidate will develop, produce, and deliver a large and varied annual programme of 30+ member events a year, spanning business, social, sporting, and major set-piece occasions.

Reporting to the Executive Director and managing the Events and Marketing Officer, this is a hands-on senior events leadership role at £50,000 plus benefits. Full-time permanent, 35 hours per week, minimum four days per week in the office.

About the organisation

The organisation is a confidential British 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 a senior events professional, few employers offer this combination: the standing of a respected British institution, an unusually varied 30+ event annual programme, and the breadth of a small team where the Head of Events also shapes the marketing and communications wrapped around the events.

Why this role

This is a senior events leadership role with real ownership. The Head of Events owns the full event process, from concept and budget through to on-the-day delivery and post-event evaluation. Working closely with the Executive Director, Director of Communications, and Head of Finance, the successful candidate will shape the annual events calendar, contribute new event concepts, and grow the organisation's sustainability programme.

There is line management of the Events and Marketing Officer, full budget ownership across the events programme, and accountability for events marketing across the website, e-newsletters, social media, and the members' magazine.

For a senior events professional who wants scope, ownership, and the standing of a respected British institution, this is an unusually rich brief.

Key Responsibilities

Events programme leadership

  • Develop, produce, and deliver a balanced annual programme of 30+ events that brings value to member companies, operating within the organisation's governance framework.
  • Own the full event process from concept to completion.
  • Design and manage the events budget in close partnership with the Head of Finance.
  • Monitor and evaluate event success and measure impact on member engagement.
  • Contribute new event concepts and continuous improvements aligned to the organisation's strategic priorities.
  • Ensure the events activities of the organisation, the associated charitable foundation, and the regional network are aligned where possible.
  • Develop and maintain partner relationships across venues, suppliers, sponsors, and member companies.

Line management and team development

  • Line manage and develop the Events and Marketing Officer on a day-to-day basis.
  • Ensure all tasks are carried out in a timely manner with a high level of accuracy.
  • Oversee administrative discipline across events, including website, Salesforce, and filing systems.

Marketing, communications, and member magazine

  • Own events marketing across the organisation's channels: website, e-newsletters, social media, and members' magazine.
  • Work alongside the Director of Communications on effective communications tied to the events programme, the regional network, and partners.
  • Enhance functionality, content, and design of the members' and public-facing websites.

  • Proven experience in a senior event management role, including programming, detailed budgeting, on-site management, marketing, and supplier management.

  • Senior-level project management experience.
  • Some people management and development experience.

Strong advantage

  • Events experience in a B2B or membership-organisation environment.
  • Salesforce experience.
  • Understanding of business sustainability practices.
  • Experience of working and engaging with membership bodies or similar, requiring digital and social media confidence.

Preferred background

  • Knowledge and appreciation of British brands from a variety of industries.
  • 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 a major set-piece event, another on a members' networking evening, another on the production of a members' magazine issue or the sustainability programme. The Head of Events owns the annual calendar while working across marketing, communications, and stakeholder engagement.

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 the events function and the sustainability programme in step with the organisation's strategic priorities.

The Opportunity

A Head of Food and Beverage is required for a farm-to-fork luxury country hotel and wellness retreat in West Dorset. This is a senior, hands-on leadership role: lead daily food and beverage operations across breakfast, lunch, and dinner service, oversee bespoke events for private groups, family stays, and corporate retreats, and embed the SOPs that turn a strong concept into a consistently delivered guest experience. Permanent, full-time. Immediate start.

About the property and the role

The property is a farm-to-fork luxury country hotel and wellness retreat in West Dorset. The concept, offering, and setting are already established. The priority now is to appoint a Head of Food and Beverage who can lead from the front, bring structure to the operation, raise service standards, and embed the SOPs that drive consistency, accountability, and operational excellence.

The Head of F&B reports directly to the General Manager and works closely with the Head Chef and Hotel Manager in weekly operational meetings. The role sits at the centre of the F&B operation, with visible floor presence across service and full ownership of the structure behind it.

The role is hands-on. The right candidate enjoys being in service, leading teams on the floor, and managing both the guest experience and the operational detail behind it. The cultural register is warm, polished, and discreet, in keeping with a luxury country hotel and wellness retreat environment.

Why this role

This is a senior F&B leadership opportunity inside a luxury hospitality environment, not a step-up from an Assistant F&B Manager or Restaurant Manager role. The property is hiring for confirmed Head of Food and Beverage experience, or equivalent senior F&B leadership in luxury hotels, retreats, private members' clubs, or premium restaurants. The judgement to set tone, to embed structure, and to manage performance fairly and decisively is non-negotiable.

For an experienced F&B leader who wants the variety of a country-hotel and wellness retreat operation, the autonomy to shape SOPs and standards across a full department, and a leadership team that protects quality, this brief offers all of it.

Key Responsibilities

Food and beverage service leadership

  • Lead from the floor across breakfast, lunch, and dinner service, holding a consistently high standard of hospitality.
  • Set the tone, pace, and expectations for service through visible, hands-on leadership.
  • Deliver a warm, polished, and discreet guest experience in keeping with a luxury country hotel and wellness retreat.
  • Drive consistency in presentation, service flow, and guest interaction across all F&B touchpoints.

SOPs, structure, and operational excellence

  • Build, implement, and maintain clear SOPs across service delivery, set-up, timing, closing procedures, and compliance.
  • Introduce stronger planning and mise-en-place processes to improve efficiency and reduce reactive service issues.
  • Establish and monitor performance benchmarks across service quality, cleanliness, consistency, and guest feedback.
  • Create the structure across the F&B operation that supports smooth daily service and stronger team performance.

Team leadership and development

  • Lead, coach, and develop a small service team, including multiple supervisors.
  • Set clear responsibilities, expectations, and accountability across the department.
  • Produce rotas in advance with contingency planning and strong labour-cost awareness.
  • Maintain high standards of communication through daily briefings, handovers, feedback, and performance management.
  • Manage underperformance fairly, confidently, and decisively where required.

Events, retreats, and bespoke guest service

  • Coordinate food and beverage delivery for retreat groups, special occasions, and corporate stays.
  • Bring creativity and attention to detail to service moments and events without compromising operational discipline.
  • Work closely with the Head Chef on menus, dietary requirements, allergens, and special guest requests.
  • Ensure a seamless guest journey across regular dining service and bespoke event experiences.

Commercial and stock management

  • Support the General Manager and Head Chef on revenue optimisation and F&B profitability.
  • Maintain strong control of stock, procurement, supplier relationships, and audit processes across food, beverage, and OS&E.
  • Identify sensible opportunities to enhance spend through food, beverage, and guest experience upselling.
  • Balance high service standards with operational efficiency and cost control.

Compliance, food safety, and best practice

  • Hold the highest standards of hygiene, cleanliness, and food safety across all service areas.
  • Ensure compliance with relevant FSA and HACCP standards and internal procedures.
  • Uphold best practice across health and safety, service preparation, and operational discipline.

Requirements

Must-haves

  • Proven experience already as a Head of Food and Beverage, F&B Manager, or equivalent senior F&B leadership role within luxury hotels, retreats, private members' clubs, or premium restaurants. This is not a step-up role.
  • Strong hands-on floor leadership style with a visible presence in service.
  • Experience implementing and enforcing SOPs, service standards, and operational governance.
  • Strong people leadership skills with the ability to coach, develop, and manage teams effectively.
  • Excellent planning capability across rotas, service preparation, team efficiency, and guest volumes.
  • Calm, professional communication skills and strong presence under pressure.
  • Comfortable running weekly 1:1 check-ins with the General Manager with clear agendas, actions, and follow-up.
  • Flexibility to work early mornings, evenings, and weekends as the operation requires.
  • Right to work in the UK.

Strong advantage

  • Experience with event service, special occasion dining, or retreat programming.
  • Confidence working with VIP or UHNW guest expectations.
  • WSET Level 2 or similar wine knowledge.
  • Experience improving service standards within an operation that requires tighter structure and leadership.

Working at this property

The property runs a service-led operation: breakfast, lunch, and dinner across regular dining, with private dining, bespoke guest experiences, retreat groups, family stays, and corporate events around it. The week has rhythm and pressure; early mornings, evenings, and weekends are part of the role.

The leadership culture is calm, structured, and standards-led. The Head of F&B works in the General Manager, Head Chef, and Hotel Manager triangle, with weekly operational meetings to align the week ahead. The right candidate brings energy and emotional intelligence to a demanding luxury hospitality setting, and is comfortable with the flexibility that comes with it.

Practical Information

  • Contract: Full-time, permanent.
  • Start: Immediate.
  • Reporting to: General Manager. Working closely with the Head Chef and Hotel Manager in weekly operational meetings.
  • Location: West Dorset, UK.
  • Hours: Full-time, including early mornings, evenings, and weekends as the operation requires.
  • Salary: Up to £65,000 gross per annum, depending on experience, plus package.
  • Relocation assistance available where required, including staff accommodation or rental support.
  • Right to work in the UK required.
