We are seeking a highly capable, energetic and proactive Personal Assistant to support the CEO across five dynamic and fast‑growing companies within the hospitality, property and operations sector.

  • Discreet, trustworthy and emotionally intelligent

This role requires someone who can provide structure, organisation and calm efficiency within a dynamic and constantly moving executive environment.

Minimum Requirements
  • Valid driver’s license and own reliable vehicle (essential)
  • Own laptop (essential)
  • Willingness to travel between:
    • Gezina (Main Base)
    • Rustenburg
    • Hartbeespoort
  • Strong administrative and coordination experience
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Strong Microsoft Office / Google Workspace proficiency
  • Ability to multitask across multiple businesses simultaneously
Key Responsibilities
  • Full executive diary and schedule management
  • Travel coordination and logistical planning
  • Meeting coordination, minutes and follow‑ups
  • Tracking projects across multiple companies
  • Assisting with operational oversight and reporting
  • Acting as liaison between CEO and management teams
  • Managing confidential information
  • Ensuring accountability on delegated tasks
  • Creating structure, reminders and systems
Personality Fit
  • Manage competing priorities
  • Remain calm under pressure
  • Bring structure to complexity
  • Think ahead
  • Take initiative without waiting for instructions

If you are someone who enjoys being the “right hand” to a visionary leader and can keep multiple moving parts aligned — this role is for you.
