  • Feedback details of overall business and private updates to principals
  • Household management on a global scale. Working with the teams on the ground to prepare for the principals’ arrival. This will also involve travelling ahead of the principals
  • Entertaining friends, business associates, dignitaries etc. The successful Chief of Staff must be personable, discreet and confident at this level

This is a newly created Chief of Staff role which the successful candidate will be able to grow and make their own as they prove their capabilities.  

 

The client needs someone who will be able to manage very high-level relationships on the principal’s behalf. They are seeking someone who is polished, bright, articulate, professional and engaging. The successful Chief of Staff must have very strong communication skills with an excellent grasp of the English language – perfect spelling and grammar. Ideally, a Russell Group graduate.

 

The UHNW principals are very personable, bright, driven and ambitious principals who seek an extremely dedicated and career focussed Chief of Staff. There will be the need for flexibility out of hours and extensive international travel, sometimes at the drop of a hat and for extended periods. They are respectful of your time and will not contact you unnecessarily, but they don't want to feel as though they are bothering you if they do need to contact you out of hours when not travelling.
