Personal Assistant / Studio Assistant

Full Time, Permanent 

Location: New York, NY (with travel as required)
Salary: $150,000 – $180,000

My Client, a highly regarded founder and creative visionary, is seeking an exceptional Personal Assistant / Studio Assistant to provide dedicated, one-to-one support.

This is a unique opportunity to work closely with the Principal within a small, tight-knit team, supporting both personal life and select creative/studio initiatives. The role is heavily focused on personal assistance, requiring a highly organized, detail-oriented individual who can operate with precision, discretion, and a strong sense of ownership.

The Principal has exceptionally high standards, making this a role best suited to someone who is both highly competent and emotionally intelligent.

THE ROLE

This is a true PA-led hybrid position, with a primary focus on the Principal’s personal life, household management, and travel, alongside light involvement in studio and creative project support.

The role requires someone who takes full ownership of their remit — anticipating needs, maintaining structure, and ensuring nothing falls through the cracks.
