Summary
This is an incredible opportunity for a world-class Travelling Private Personal Assistant to support a dynamic, highly respected and visionary leader based in Vancouver, Canada. This Canadian-born entrepreneur has built a multi-billion-dollar company from the ground up with no outside financing or major acquisitions. This principal has sharp instincts, a relentless work ethic, and an unwavering pursuit of excellence. He is a self-made success story, admired by peers and respected by those closest to him. Intensity, infectious passion, and an unwavering commitment to living life to its full potential define this individual.
This is an extraordinary opportunity for a highly skilled, experienced, and emotionally intelligent individual to become the principal’s right hand; a trusted extension who will be central to the flawless execution of his personal and professional life.
This will be an all-encompassing role whereby the PA will operate at the highest level of personal service, discretion, and loyalty, and will serve as a trusted ambassador at all times. This is not a 9–5 job, but rather a lifestyle commitment whereby you will offer total flexibility and be on call 24/7. You will work when the principal works, travel when he travels and work tirelessly to anticipate every need, aligning with his values, resolving issues before they arise, and ensuring each day runs with precision.
The ideal candidate will be calm under pressure, solution-oriented, ego-free, and treat everyone respectfully, from heads of state to household staff. You will take genuine pride in your work and ensure that exacting standards are maintained at all times. In return, the successful candidate will receive a highly competitive salary, a comprehensive benefits package including healthcare and pension, and a discretionary performance-based bonus. Relocation support is available for the right individual. More than just a role, this is the opportunity of a lifetime: to work alongside a globally respected, inspirational entrepreneur and become a vital part of an extraordinary journey.
