About the role
This is a true personal assistant role that blends executive support, light bookkeeping, personal affairs, and operational coordination across business and personal life. The right person is discreet, resourceful, and self-directed. They anticipate needs, take ownership without being told twice, and thrive in a fast-paced environment where the line between business and personal is intentionally blurred.
Responsibilities
- Manage and maintain the CEO's calendar — scheduling, prioritization, and conflict resolution
- Fully manage the CEO's personal email inbox — triage, respond on his behalf, escalate what matters
- Book all travel — flights, hotels, ground transportation, and full itineraries
- Coordinate business and personal events, dinners, and restaurant reservations
- Serve as a professional liaison between the CEO and external parties, including investment firms, vendors, and service providers
- Coordinate with project managers, HR, and other leadership to delegate and track tasks on behalf of the CEO
- Manage personal errands, deliveries, and time-sensitive tasks across multiple locations
- Coordinate seasonal preparation and ongoing upkeep of the CEO's homes and properties — gardeners, contractors, household vendors
- Oversee household and property vendors — ensure quality, accountability, and follow-through
- Conduct online research to source the best deals, vendors, and options
- Manage day-to-day personal and business bill pay
- Categorize, track, and reconcile personal and business expenses
- Communicate with investment firms, accountants, and financial advisors on the CEO's behalf
- Maintain organized financial records — physical and digital
- Prepare monthly budget and spending summaries for CEO review
- Bookkeeping in QuickBooks Office & Vendor Management
- Oversee the appearance and function of the office (you coordinate vendors and janitorial — you are the point of contact, not the laborer)
- Receive and manage incoming deliveries, mail, and shipments
- Keep office food, groceries, and supplies stocked at all times
- Interview, vet, and onboard new vendors as needed
Requirements

- Hands-on QuickBooks experience
- A background in bookkeeping, accounting, or personal finance administration
- Hands-on experience with project management tools like Asana, ClickUp, or Monday
- Highly proficient at booking travel, coordinating events, and managing complex calendars

- Discreet and trustworthy with highly sensitive personal and financial information
- Comfortable being responsive to texts and time-sensitive matters outside of standard business hours, including evenings and weekends as needed
- A reliable personal vehicle and clean driving record (required)
- Comfortable using AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, etc.) to draft communications and work more efficiently
