Your life will never be so organised. The assistant with eagle-eyed precision whilst managing your personal and business affairs.
A UHNW assistant is crucial to managing your everyday affairs and business activities. They can work from your home or office and typically are with you from the start of your day to finish. Gifted with problem-solving talents and adaptability, no activity or task is too small or too big. Their talent is anticipating your needs before you even think about them!
Within the UHNW (Ultra High Net Worth) assistant role lies a plethora of duties, with key tasks and responsibilities encompassing the payment of household expenses and the facilitation of private and business travel bookings. This role also involves acting as a liaison and assisting in organising charity and beneficiary events. Additionally, it may entail the potential management of household staff and serving as the initial point of contact for family liaison. Their duties extend to attending to personal needs, including wardrobe management and scheduling personal appointments, among other tasks.
They are ready to handle ad hoc personal requests, such as dog walking and providing transportation to and from appointments, ensuring a seamless and efficient support system.
