Full-time Executive Personal Assistant to High-Profile Entrepreneur in Dubai, UAE | (6 days on/1 day off) | From $12.5K/month | Start ASAP
EED is proud to be supporting a high-profile entrepreneur and business principal who is seeking his first dedicated Executive Personal Assistant. Based primarily in Dubai across DIFC and Business Bay, with regular time in Central London and occasional travel to the US and Europe, this is a rare and genuinely exceptional opportunity for a candidate who thrives in a fast-moving, high-discretion environment.
The Principal leads a performance marketing and digital media company of approximately 90 people, with a US-facing client base. He values time, mental clarity, and an aesthetically considered environment. The mandate for this role is straightforward: eliminate friction from his personal and professional life so he can direct his energy entirely where it matters.
A Business Executive Assistant is already in place on the commercial side. The incoming candidate will be the personal support infrastructure — building it from scratch, identifying gaps, sourcing providers, and establishing processes that allow the Principal to operate at full capacity.
Working schedule: Approximately 6 days on / 1 day off, on-call basis. Work is split between remote and at the Principal’s residence or place of business as required.
