At TYS Recruitment, we are currently seeking an exceptional Personal Assistant on behalf of our client, a High-Net-Worth family based in Southern Spain.
We are looking for a highly organised, proactive, and adaptable candidate to join their private Family Office. Working hand-in-hand with an established co-PA, you will provide comprehensive administrative and lifestyle support directly to the principal and their family. While the role is office-based, your focus will be entirely centred on private family affairs, international lifestyle management, and personal operations rather than corporate tasks.
If you thrive in a fast-paced environment, love variety, and bring a hands-on, flexible mindset, we want to hear from you.
