hire a family assistant

Family assistant

The recruiters at The Celebrity Personal Assistant Network can help you hire a family assistant for your household. We have more than 15 years of experience assisting families manage their estates.

We were founded by a former assistant to celebrities, billionaires and royal families, so we know the domestic staffing industry inside and out. We make matches that last. 

What do family assistants do?

the role of a family assistantFamily assistants play an important household role
Family assistants manage households in a number of very important ways. They are what we call in the domestic staffing industry a hybrid role. Essentially, a family assistant is an amalgamation of a personal assistant, nanny, executive assistant, and housekeeper. In short, they are an extension of the mother of father in the household.
​
A family assistant role covers all things from A to Z in the estate: scheduling doctor appointments, grocery shopping, and errands related to the household upkeep -- just to name a few things. 

How much do family assistants get paid?

Candidate salaries for family assistant jobs require each specific situation to be examined. Parents can't expect to pay a fixed rate for each job because several factors need to be considered before you hire.

  • What school did the family assistant attend?
  • Does the candidate have business administration experience?
  • Can the family assistant prepare dinner?

After the entire family considers the aforementioned, then other factors for proficiency in completing tasks like travel arrangements, dog walking, and running errands count toward an increased salary. 

Do family assistants serve the entire family? 

assist the entire familyFamily assistants are an "all in one" job
Yes, absolutely. Depending on the size of the estate and the number of people in the entire family, a separate personal assistant may be employed because the workload would be too much for one family assistant to be responsible for.
​
In a very large estate with many family members, it would be customary to have nannies, chefs, and multiple family assistants to manage all of the kids. 

Can family assistant jobs be a career?

Yes, absolutely. If you have the organizational skills to schedule appointments, offer administrative support, and keep a family's house running smoothly, then you can make a great career out of it.
​
The main component of the job is that family assistants provide childcare, which includes meal preparation. If those two tasks aren't something you love doing, then being a personal assistant is recommended instead. 

What is it like to be a family assistant to a celebrity or billionaire? 

assistance to billionairesAssisting billionaires is hard work
Family assistants typically work long hours, so you will go well beyond the typical full-time hours. In fact, 50 or 60-hour weeks are possible.

Candidates wear many hats throughout the day, so you will run errands, juggle administrative duties, support the children, make a lot of phone calls, and maybe even help the resident horticulturist in the flower garden.
​
As a new hire in a household, it's advised that family assistants spend a lot of time with the nanny. She can assist you with understanding the family's dynamics and how to help the children with their school work. 

How can I apply for family assistant jobs?

If you are seeking a full time job as a family assistant, then we recommend that you spend quality time reviewing our job descriptions and FAQs pages. Many assistants think that they are suitable for working with celebrities, high-net-worth individuals or billionaires, but aren't always aware of the long hours and dedication required.

If you have strong computer skills, can keep a home organized, are willing to run errands, and can assist children, then we want to speak with you. Having a bachelor's degree isn't required, but strongly preferred.
