Remote Private PA - Based DACH + France - Occasional Travel

We are seeking an exceptional senior Private PA, currently living in France, Germany, Austria or Switzerland, for a role providing dedicated private support to a highly active international Principal. Fluency in English, alongside either French or German, is essential.  Some European travel will be required so close proximity to an airport would be advantageous. 

This is a predominantly private support role, ideal for someone who can effortlessly manage travel arrangements, personal logistics, scheduling, communications, and day-to-day priorities with professionalism, discretion, and absolute reliability. As a trusted right hand to the Principal, you will ensure every detail is handled seamlessly behind the scenes, enabling them to focus on their personal and professional commitments. The successful candidate will be highly organised, resourceful, culturally aware, and naturally proactive, with the ability to anticipate needs, solve problems independently, and remain one step ahead in a fast-paced international environment.

The position is primarily remote, with occasional travel accompanying the Principal to engagements and events across Europe.

• Manage complex personal travel arrangements, including flights, accommodation, ground transportation, itineraries, and visa requirements
• Accompany the Principal on selected trips within Europe, occasionally
• Provide real-time language support and interpretation between German/French and English during meetings, appointments, and engagements
• Coordinate personal schedules, appointments, reservations, and diary management
• Handle private correspondence and sensitive communications with complete discretion
• Anticipate needs and proactively resolve logistical challenges
• Assist with a wide range of personal, lifestyle, administrative, and ad-hoc requests
• Act as a trusted gatekeeper and point of coordination across various personal and professional contacts
