We are helping a busy client find a personal assistant for roughly 15 hours per week. He is flexible on the days, with his preference being a 12-5pm day. He wants someone with a caretaker type of mentality – you notice his shoes need shining, so you drop them off at the shoe store..you notice he is running low on his favorite foods, you restock his pantry. He will be making a move from a smaller apartment to a larger apartment – so someone who is saavy with finding the best company…booking travel…helping with dog care (he has a new puppy coming, so you should love dogs!)..running errands…tidying up..organizing his closet…returns…someone who can pack him for trips…unpack, etc. If you are looking for a great boss to work for, send us your resume along with your hourly requirements! This is paid on the books. heather@thehelpcompany.com

Bonus points if you speak Italian, but not a requirement!

We have a very kind and calm UES couple that is looking for a part time personal assistant. The days will be Monday, Wednesday and Thursday (non-negotiable on the days) and the hours are 10-6 or 1030-630pm. The Mrs is very involved with the calendar, so she is looking for assistance with her daily schedule vs someone who is used to taking over. It is very important that you are:

-Experienced in homes that do not have a lot of staff..this is a very small operation here!
-Kind
-Calm
-Emotionally intelligent
-Comfortable with slower days
-Dog friendly (you might be asked to walk their large dog)
-Okay with minimal facetime direction…self-starter works best here
-Mac saavy is super important

Bonus points if you have worked for an author in the past.

This position can begin as soon as December 28th or January 5th. Send us your resume along with your hourly requirements if this job is perfect for you! heather@thehelpcompany.com
