Reporting to:
Chief of Staff

Supporting:
Founder / Creative Principal

Our client is seeking a Personal Assistant to support a founder whose work spans entrepreneurship, creative pursuits, and personal endeavors. This role offers the opportunity to partner closely with the principal in a position that blends executive support, personal assistance, household coordination, and occasional creative project support. Success in this role requires sound judgment, discretion, adaptability, and a genuine desire to make another person's life run more smoothly.

Your role is to support the full spectrum of this work, knowing when to lean into logistics, when to create structure, and when to make space for curiosity, process, and creative flow, all while becoming a trusted, steady presence behind the scenes.

This is an in-person role based in SoHo, New York City. While the office will serve as your primary home base, you'll also provide support from the principal's residence, creative workspace, and other locations as needed.

You've supported high-performing leaders before and know what it takes to keep complex lives running smoothly. You're energized by being indispensable, but you're also looking for work that feels more human, intentional, and collaborative. You value excellence without burnout, and you understand that exceptional support isn't about simply reacting to requests, it's about anticipating needs, exercising good judgment, and creating the conditions for someone else to do their best work.

You're the kind of person who finds order amidst complexity and adapts easily when priorities shift. No task is too small, and every detail matters because you know the small things often make the biggest difference. You build trust through discretion, professionalism, consistency, and follow-through, and you take pride in making someone else's life feel lighter, calmer, and more organized.

Just as importantly, you enjoy building relationships. You're warm, grounded, and emotionally intelligent. You know how to bring personality to your work without needing to be the center of attention. You naturally adapt to the people around you, read situations well, and understand that trust is earned over time.

The ideal candidate brings 4+ years of relevant experience, a passion for organized living, and excitement about building a long-term partnership.

• Organization & Project Management: You naturally create order out of complexity. Whether coordinating a complex calendar, planning travel, managing appointments, or juggling competing priorities, you're always thinking several steps ahead. You don't just keep track of tasks, you build systems that make everything run more smoothly. You look for opportunities to reduce friction, improve processes, and create structure that makes life easier for everyone around you.
• Emotional Intelligence & Adaptability: You read people and situations well. You're thoughtful in how you communicate, steady when plans change, and know when to take initiative versus when to ask questions. You understand that every leader works differently and enjoy learning how someone operates so you can support them in the way that's most helpful.
• Tech-Savvy & Resourceful: You’re comfortable with the tools that keep things organized, Microsoft Office, Google Workspace, Zoom, Slack, Asana, and the like. You're also excited about learning new tech that makes work more efficient (i.e. you love ChatGPT but use it thoughtfully and responsibly).
• Proactive & Detail-Oriented: You notice the details others miss. You anticipate needs before they become requests, take ownership from start to finish, and quietly solve problems without creating more work for others. You handle sensitive information with complete discretion and integrity.

This role is designed for someone who finds genuine satisfaction in creating calm amidst complexity and making another person's day, work, and life run more smoothly.

As the principal's primary day-to-day support, you'll sit at the center of both their professional and personal worlds. Working closely with the…
