Personal Assistant Job Description Template

A Job Description that attracts the right candidate for your role is crucial so the more information you can provide, the better. When briefing any PA Candidate, we always discuss the vacancy in great depth and ensure we explain the duties, history of the role, company culture, personalities it supports as well as any benefits package. We spend a long time focusing on the right fit for you so we want the job description to also speak to a PA candidate and make them feel excited by the opportunity.
