SUMMARY:
Personal Assistant to the Owner - 4* & 5* Hospitality Group
POSITION INFO:
Our client, the owner of a prestigious collection of 4* and 5* hospitality offerings — including game lodges, wine farms, and boutique guest houses — is seeking a highly capable Personal Assistant (PA) to provide day-to-day support.
This is not a standard 9–5 role: the position requires flexibility, resilience, and the ability to work occasional hospitality hours in line with the demands of a dynamic industry. The owner has a fast pace and high expectations, and the successful candidate will need to be organised, adaptable, and comfortable managing multiple priorities in a demanding environment.
Key Responsibilities:
-
Provide full PA support to the owner, including diary management, travel arrangements, and confidential correspondence.
-
Coordinate across multiple properties (lodges, farms, guest houses) to ensure smooth operations and alignment with the owner’s priorities.
-
Assist with project management, scheduling, and follow-up to ensure initiatives are delivered on time.
-
Support hospitality operations by attending events, meetings, or activations as required, sometimes outside standard office hours.
-
Handle ad hoc tasks with discretion, efficiency, and a solutions-driven mindset.
Requirements:
-
Previous experience as a PA, EA, or similar role — preferably within hospitality, luxury travel, or related industries.
-
Exceptional organisational and multitasking skills.
-
Strong communication and interpersonal ability, with confidence in engaging senior stakeholders and hospitality teams.
-
Flexibility to work some evenings, weekends, or hospitality hours as needed.
-
Resilience and composure under pressure, with the ability to keep up with a demanding owner.
What’s on Offer:
-
The opportunity to work closely with the owner of a renowned hospitality group spanning multiple high-end properties.
-
A dynamic, varied role in a fast-paced environment.
-
Competitive package, commensurate with experience.
