Job Description

A prominent private equity founder based in Santa Monica is seeking a highly organized, proactive, and dependable Personal Executive Assistant to support both their personal and professional life. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, ever-changing environment and can bring structure, consistency, and ease to a very dynamic individual.

The founder is frequently on the road (3–4 days per week), and while they excels professionally, they needs a trusted assistant to help streamline and manage the personal logistics that often fall behind. This is a full-time role with flexibility; most work can be done remotely, but the assistant must be local and available to be on-site when needed.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Personal Support: Run errands, manage personal appointments, coordinate home repairs, oversee vendors, and assist with day-to-day life logistics.
  • Travel & Calendar Coordination: Book and manage travel, monitor schedules, and ensure the founder is fully prepped for meetings and commitments.
  • Home Project Oversight: Manage ongoing home improvement projects, from small repairs to coordinating contractors and walkthroughs.
  • Organization & Systems: Develop and maintain systems to help bring order to a very full and fast-moving lifestyle.
  • Executive Support (as needed): Assist with light administrative and executive support tasks as opportunities arise.

Ideal Candidate:

  • Highly organized with excellent time management and follow-through.
  • Confident, capable, and able to take initiative without needing constant direction.
  • Possesses sound judgment and strong communication skills.
  • Comfortable managing both personal and professional tasks with discretion and efficiency.
  • Positive, approachable, and solution-oriented — someone who brings energy, not stress.
  • Tech-savvy and adaptable, with a willingness to take on a variety of tasks, big and small.

Requirements:

  • Based in Los Angeles, ideally on the Westside (Santa Monica, Brentwood, Venice, etc.).
  • Flexible and available for occasional in-person support, especially around travel or key home projects.
  • Previous experience supporting a high-level individual in a personal assistant, executive assistant, or similar capacity.
  • Comfortable working independently in a mostly remote setting.
  • Interest in private equity or business is a plus, though not required.

Compensation: $40-$45/hr
