EA/PA/Chief of Staff

Executive Assistants (EA), Personal Assistants (PA), and Chief of Staff (CoS) roles are vital for ensuring the smooth operation of high-profile households and corporate environments. These professionals provide strategic support, streamline operations, and handle administrative tasks, allowing executives and principals to focus on high-level decision-making. An Executive Assistant (EA) is the right hand of top executives, managing schedules, coordinating meetings, and prioritizing tasks. The EA serves as a central contact point, ensuring everything is in place for meetings and events, and making decisions on behalf of the executive. This role requires strong organizational skills, adaptability, and effective communication. Personal Assistants (PAs) focus on managing the personal affairs of their principals. This includes organizing travel, handling family logistics, arranging events, and overseeing household operations. PAs anticipate the needs of their principals, providing seamless support while maintaining confidentiality and discretion. The Chief of Staff (CoS) works closely with executives or family office leaders to ensure that organizational goals are aligned and executed. They manage high-priority projects, optimize workflows, and improve communication across departments. The CoS plays a strategic role in driving initiatives forward and ensuring that key objectives are achieved on time. All three roles require discretion, organizational skills, and the ability to multitask. They handle sensitive information, anticipate needs, and solve problems proactively. Whether managing schedules, ensuring family affairs run smoothly, or driving strategic initiatives, these professionals are essential for maintaining effectiveness and success in any high-net-worth environment.

Testimonials

We engaged Oplu on a Travelling Personal Assistant hire. The experience was genuinely different. They were direct, relevant, and rigorous in screening. Communication was clear and the process was transparent from the outset. We went from brief to placement within weeks, which is unusual for this type of role.

Chief of Staff

Single Family Office, London

We worked with Oplu on an Investment Associate hire for our multi-family office. The brief required strong financial capability, and personality fit mattered just as much. Oplu excels at assessing fit. They brought structure and pace without compromising standards. Updates were clear, feedback loops were tight, and the shortlist quality was consistently high.

COO

Multi Family Office, London

Oplu helped us hire an IT specialist for our single-family office. It was a high-stakes brief involving global travel, trading and investment systems, security, and the principal’s day-to-day requirements. Oplu understood our confidentiality needs immediately and ran a very controlled process. Screening was detailed and thoughtful, and every candidate presented was relevant.
