• Communication and stakeholder management: manage inbox correspondence with excellent written English, and liaise with advisors, EAs/PAs, partners, venues and service providers.
• Corporate events and brand alignment: partner with marketing on corporate events, key appearances and hosted engagements, and help align timelines, guest lists, venues, approvals and run-of-show.
• Personal admin: handle personal errands and lifestyle logistics quietly, keeping all personal and commercial matters confidential.

Required profile

• Demonstrable experience as a PA/EA to a UHNWI or senior C-suite executive.
