We are seeking an experienced, polished, and highly intuitive Personal & Lifestyle Assistant to become a trusted extension of an Ultra High Net Worth Principal. This is a true principal support role—not an estate or house management position.
The successful candidate will provide seamless lifestyle support across the principal's residences and while traveling, ensuring every aspect of their day-to-day life is thoughtfully organized and effortlessly executed.
This role is centered around anticipating needs, delivering exceptional service, and creating an effortless lifestyle experience with the highest level of discretion and professionalism.
Working closely alongside the Executive Assistant team and household staff, this individual will focus on supporting the principal—not managing the household. The ideal candidate thrives in dynamic environments, is exceptionally adaptable, and enjoys providing concierge-level service wherever the principal may be.
Travel is an essential component of this position. The successful candidate should expect to travel approximately 12–16 weeks per year, sometimes for extended periods, providing the same level of thoughtful support whether at a private residence, aboard private transportation, or abroad.

Ideal Background
We recognize exceptional candidates come from a variety of luxury service environments. We are particularly interested in professionals with backgrounds such as:
- Personal or Lifestyle Assistant
- Traveling Executive Assistant
- Interior Yacht Steward or Stewardess
- Luxury Hospitality or VIP Guest Services
- Wardrobe Manager or Valet
- Private Aviation Concierge
- Family Office Lifestyle Support
Candidates whose careers have focused on
direct principal support, luxury hospitality, and personalized service are strongly preferred over traditional estate or property management backgrounds.
The Ideal Candidate
You are naturally service-oriented and genuinely enjoy making someone else's life run effortlessly. You notice the details others miss, anticipate needs before they're expressed, and take pride in delivering exceptional support with warmth, discretion, and professionalism.
You thrive in changing environments, enjoy traveling, and are energized by variety rather than routine. You are equally comfortable coordinating a last-minute international trip, preparing a wardrobe for travel, sourcing a hard-to-find item, or quietly ensuring every detail has been considered before the principal even asks.
Above all, you understand that true luxury service is proactive, personalized, and seamless—and you take pride in being the person who makes that happen.
