The British Connection Staffing, New York, NY, United States
Senior Personal Assistant (UHNW Principal)
Base Salary: $300,000+ plus exceptional benefits, unlimited PTO (within reason) and 20% bonus
NYC-based | Mostly remote with some global travel
Must be fluent in at least ONE of the following: French, Spanish or, German
The British Connection Staffing is delighted to act as the exclusive recruiter for this exceptional role.
The Principal & Environment The principal is a globally recognised entrepreneur and investor whose work has helped shape the modern world. Despite this, he is grounded, thoughtful, and deeply respectful of the people around him. He values trust, discretion, and calm competence, and communicates with clarity and awareness.
He operates at a level where his time and attention are exceptionally sought after, including within the most rarefied global circles. This role requires someone who intuitively understands that environment - and can distinguish, without guidance, between noise, access, and true priority.
Throughout his career, he has consistently built ahead of consensus, favouring original thinking, creativity, and long-term conviction over convention. He maintains a well-established family life and places high value on stability, discretion, and long-term relationships.
Importantly, he is open and collaborative. He listens, welcomes considered input, and respects those who think independently and take quiet pride in doing things well. He places a high value on capability and experience, and is firmly of the view that investing in the right people far outweighs the cost of cutting corners.
The broader environment is
a private, highly sophisticated, multi-jurisdiction (U.S.- Europe) single-family office operating at significant scale . Strategic and investment functions are led by experienced professionals; this role sits alongside that structure, focused on the principal’s personal world, logistics, and day-to-day reality, while working in close coordination with the wider team.
The culture is one of trust and autonomy. The principal does not micro-manage - he hires people he can rely on to exercise judgment, make decisions, and operate at a consistently high standard. The relationship is collaborative, straightforward, and built on mutual respect. Communication is direct, easy, and without unnecessary friction.
The Role This is a true Senior PA position, combining hands-on execution with chief-of-staff-level responsibility.
The successful candidate will act as a primary extension of the principal, with full ownership of his personal and operational world. The purpose of the role is simple: to ensure that life runs smoothly and intelligently, allowing the principal and his family to focus on living it well.
The principal spends extended periods across multiple residences and in transit; New York serves as a periodic home base. The role is remote in structure, but requires a New York City-based candidate who is fully available for international travel.
This is a position with real agency. The successful candidate will be trusted to take ownership, bring ideas, refine systems, and shape the role over time. The PA must know how to regulate their working hours for sustainable life balance. Burn-out is the enemy of efficiency and career longevity.
You will work in close partnership with the wife’s highly experienced Personal Assistant, as well as alongside senior family office professionals, in an environment that values coordination, clarity, and goodwill.
