Salary: $54,600/year ($28/hr x 37.5 hrs x 52 weeks, paid as annual salary)
Schedule: Monday-Friday, 8:00 AM start, 8 hours/day, 40 hours/week

ABOUT THE ROLE
I am a busy private businessman seeking a polished, highly experienced personal assistant to run my household and manage personal logistics on a long-term basis. This is a professional position in a private home, and I expect a professional standard of work, presentation, and discretion at all times.
Roughly half the role is hands-on household work; the other half is errands, ordering, and personal logistics. The pace can be demanding and the environment high-pressure — I need someone who stays composed, anticipates what's needed, and executes without being micromanaged.
RESPONSIBILITIES
Household (approx. 50%)
- Full house cleaning to a high, consistent standard — formal cleaning experience required
- All laundry and dry-cleaning drop-off and pickup
- Keeping the home organized, stocked, and presentable at all times
Errands & Personal Logistics (approx. 50%)
- Grocery shopping and household supply runs
- Placing online orders and managing deliveries
- Dry cleaning and other recurring errands
- General follow-through so nothing slips
Pet Care
- Care for and walk two dogs (part-time — not in the home every day)
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS
- Formal, verifiable cleaning experience — this is one of the most important requirements. Professional housekeeping, estate, or hospitality background strongly preferred.
- Strong organizational skills — able to run a task list, manage household systems, and keep things on track without constant direction.
- Computer proficiency — comfortable using email, placing online orders (Amazon, grocery delivery, etc.), tracking deliveries, and basic digital tools.
- Long career history in personal assistant, household, or related professional roles.
- Discretion, professionalism, and a polished demeanor — you will be in my home and around my personal life.
- Ability to handle a demanding, high-stress environment with a steady attitude.
- Reliable transportation and a valid driver's license.
NON-NEGOTIABLE STANDARDS
- No drug use. Pre-employment and ongoing drug screening required.
- No criminal history. Background check required.
- Verifiable references from prior private employers or agencies.
- Long-term commitment only — this is not a short-term or transitional role.
COMPENSATION
- $54,600/year salary
- Stable, long-term position with a private employer
- Consistent 40-hour schedule
