We have an incredible opportunity for a highly experienced, loyal Private Personal Assistant to support an ultra-high-net-worth individual in Zurich, Switzerland. A right-hand role, you will provide world-class support to the principal across all areas of her private and family life and households globally.

The principal is looking for a confidant, thus you will be her go-to for all matters and will work to pre-empt her needs and exceed expectations. You will play an integral part in the running of her day-to-day lifestyle, booking appointments, making reservations, travel planning, household management, supporting the household staff, maintenance and refurbishments, occasionally arranging contractors, general administration, and errand running.

You will have a close working relationship with the Family Office as well as the PAs of other family members and will liaise with them regularly to plan, coordinate, and organise all family matters

Our client is looking for a loyal, trustworthy, and dedicated PA who she can rely on wholly to ensure the job gets done. The successful candidate will have a ‘can-do’ attitude and a hands-on approach, and will be committed and flexible in their work. With a warm and friendly disposition, you will be approachable and have the ability to remain calm and professional at all times. Discretion is of absolute importance, as well as the ability to be an ambassador for the principal at all times.

Our client has a great love for dogs, and they are of huge importance in her life – so this role is only open to dog-friendly applicants.

Based between the principal’s home in Zurich and the Family Office nearby Zug, this live-out position is only suited to candidates with EU citizenship or residency who live near Zurich or are happy to relocate.
