Full job description

Personal Assistant to Founder, About the Role:

I am looking for a highly organised, confident, discreet, and adaptable Personal Assistant to support the Founder across a wide group of companies.

The businesses operate across AI, technology, investment, property, private client work, and other fast-moving projects. This is not a typical corporate admin role. It is a close-support role for someone who is comfortable working directly with one person and helping keep both business and personal matters organised.

The right person will be polished, reliable, switched on, and able to handle a mix of tasks without needing constant direction. You should be comfortable being trusted with private information, communicating professionally, and making life easier behind the scenes.

This role would suit someone who is confident, presentable, discreet, proactive, and comfortable in a more relaxed but high-standard working environment.

The Role

You will act as a trusted right-hand support to the Founder, helping with day-to-day organisation, business admin, personal support, scheduling, communication, and follow-ups.

The role will include both business and personal tasks, so flexibility and discretion are important.

You will support with:

Diary and calendar management
Emails, calls, messages, and follow-ups
Booking meetings, appointments, travel, restaurants, hotels, and logistics
Organising documents, notes, reminders, receipts, and admin systems
Personal errands and general life admin
Coordinating with clients, suppliers, contractors, partners, and internal team members
Tracking deadlines, payments, renewals, tasks, and important reminders
Preparing meeting notes, summaries, and action points
Helping keep multiple businesses and projects organised
Acting as a professional point of contact when required

What We’re Looking For

We are looking for someone who is:

Highly organised and reliable
Confident, presentable, and professional
Discreet and trustworthy with private information
Comfortable working closely with a Founder
Able to manage both business and personal tasks
Proactive and able to use initiative
Calm under pressure and able to adapt quickly
Strong with communication by phone, email, message, and video call
Comfortable speaking with clients, suppliers, contractors, and partners
Good at following up and making sure things do not get missed
Comfortable in a relaxed but high-standard environment
Able to handle changing priorities without getting overwhelmed

Useful Experience

Previous experience in any of the following would be helpful:

Personal Assistant
Executive Assistant
Administrator
Office Manager
Receptionist
Client Relationship Manager
Customer Service
Operations Support
Property Admin
Finance/Admin Support
Private household or private client support

Experience is useful, but the right personality, attitude, discretion, and reliability are just as important.

Tools & Skills

You should be comfortable using, or willing to quickly learn, tools such as:

Google Workspace
Microsoft Office
Google Calendar / Outlook Calendar
Gmail / Outlook
Notion or task trackers
Slack / Teams
Zoom
CRM systems
Spreadsheets
Document and file management systems

Ideal Candidate

The ideal candidate is someone who naturally notices what needs doing.

You are not someone who waits to be chased. You keep things moving, remind people, follow up, and make sure details are handled properly.

You are comfortable being trusted with private information and understand the importance of discretion. You can be professional when needed, but also relaxed, personable, and easy to work with.

This role would suit someone who wants to become a trusted right-hand person, not just someone looking for a basic admin job.

Working Style

This role may include a mix of remote, hybrid, and occasional in-person support depending on location and requirements.

Some days will be structured. Other days may be more varied, with last-minute tasks, changing priorities, and different projects happening at once.

You should be comfortable with variety and happy to support across both business and personal areas.

Requirements

Excellent communication skills
Strong organisation and time management
High level of discretion and confidentiality
Professional presentation and manner
Ability to work independently
Comfortable managing multiple tasks at once
Good attention to detail
Confident using basic admin and productivity tools
Driving licence preferred but not essential
Previous PA, EA, admin, client-facing, or support experience preferred

How to Apply

Please apply with your CV and a short note explaining why you think you would be a good fit for this role.

Shortlisted candidates will be invited to an informal first-stage call to discuss the role, your experience, working style, availability, and what the position would involve day to day.

Pay: £26,000.00-£48,500.00 per year

Benefits:

Company car
Company events
Employee mentoring programme
Financial planning services
Flexitime
Gym membership
Health & wellbeing programme
Private medical insurance
Sick pay
Work from home

Licence/Certification:

Driving Licence (preferred)
