Job description
About the role
A remote, part-time Personal Assistant is sought to provide personal, lifestyle and digital administrative support to a busy professional. The role is not a traditional corporate administration position: it focuses on helping an individual take control of a substantial backlog of personal administration, projects, digital information and ongoing responsibilities spanning several countries. The initial phase is hands-on, around 20 hours per week, with hours likely to fall once systems are in place.
Key responsibilities
- Review, organise and prioritise outstanding personal administration and projects, and build a structured action plan for a large backlog
- Break complex projects into manageable steps and drive them to completion
- Manage personal email, inbox, correspondence, calendars, appointments, reminders and deadlines
- Organise digital files, documents, cloud storage and personal information, including passwords and accounts
- Set up and maintain task-management and productivity systems
- Make calls and handle written outreach, liaising with banks, utilities, insurers, service providers and government institutions
- Assist with administrative matters across the US, UK and France, and research solutions and service providers
- Follow up proactively and use productivity and AI tools to improve efficiency
Required profile
- Minimum 4-5 years of experience as a Personal Assistant, Executive Assistant, Lifestyle Assistant, Professional Organiser or similar
- Demonstrated experience managing personal/life administration, not just corporate administration
- Strong organisational and project-management abilities, excellent written and spoken English
- Independent, proactive and discreet, comfortable with significant US Eastern Time overlap
- Advantageous: French, UK or France personal administration experience, family office or lifestyle-management background
Required skills
- Email and inbox management, cloud storage, calendars and task-management systems
- Google Workspace, Gmail, Notion, Todoist, password managers and AI-based productivity tools
