Summary
The client is seeking an organized, proactive, and highly resourceful Lead Personal Assistant to support one of the founders of a dynamic and growing family office based in Montreal. This is an exciting opportunity to join a collaborative team supporting successful entrepreneurs who continue to lead multiple businesses while balancing active personal lives.
Working alongside a close-knit established team of Personal Assistants, this individual will provide day-to-day lifestyle and personal support, helping to ensure the principal’s schedule, residences, travel, and personal projects are managed seamlessly.
