A rare opportunity for an outstanding Executive Assistant to support a highly successful HNW businessman in a true one‑to‑one, long‑term partnership. This role sits at the heart of a discreet, fast‑moving investment firm, requiring a degree‑educated, exceptionally polished EA with natural charm, confidence, and the emotional intelligence to operate as the principal’s trusted right hand.

You will become the person who knows his preferences, anticipates his needs, protects his time, and ensures his world runs seamlessly. This is a role for a side‑kick, a strategic partner, and a calm, capable presence who brings structure, clarity, and warmth to a demanding schedule. In return, you’ll enjoy an outstanding package, a respectful working relationship, and the chance to become truly indispensable.
