Being a part of this international powerhouse agency will connect you to a roster of distinguished hotels, resorts, restaurants, real estate projects, and destinations across the globe, elevating your career (and your frequent flier status). We tell compelling original stories to connect brands to their target audiences. We’re passionate, professional, and purpose-driven. We're dedicated to our work, the agency, our clients, and each other.

We’re incredibly intentional about our company culture, and we wholeheartedly believe in a work-life blend, where you'll be empowered to continue learning and growing through travel, mentorship, training, and retreats, along with a connected company culture. 

Who are you?

You thrive in a hands-on support role, taking pride in being the keystone of a successful founding partner’s personal and professional worlds. Highly intuitive, confident, and self-directed, you quickly learn the founder’s preferences, anticipate needs, take initiative, and work independently. You have a natural eye for detail and a proven track record of understanding and applying a founder's vision and visual identity to flawlessly curated experiences. Your experience supporting high-powered executives has honed your ability to strategically plan ahead, keep calm under pressure, and meet short deadlines. Through it all, your strong value for the people and relationships in your work and life shines through. 

The Role

As an Executive Personal Assistant, you’ll wear many hats and act as the smooth operator behind the scenes in a faster-than-fast environment. First and foremost, you’ll provide J/PR’s founding partner with logistical support while executing business needs and coordinating personal projects. This role requires experience managing complex calendars, travel arrangements (domestic and international), meeting logistics, expense reporting, and confidential correspondence, often shifting between personal and professional commitments.

You’ll work within the Operations team, supporting collaboration between the founder and all operations functions: finance, hiring, new business, and office management. There is an internal client focus and dedication to facilitating clear communication with the agency’s clients on behalf of the partner.

Duties & Responsibilities:

Executive Assistant Duties

• Manage complex calendars and scheduling for the partner
• Handle partner's email management and correspondence
• Support project tracking and partner-requested initiatives, attend meetings, take detailed notes, and follow up on action items
• Coordinate domestic and international travel and accommodation arrangements via telephone and email, and prepare related agendas/itineraries
• Act as liaison between partner, clients, and leadership, ensuring clear communication and timely follow-through
• Manage monthly accounts receivable, including professional client communication, processing payments, and meticulously tracking partners' monthly expenses
• Coordinate company parties, annual events, team gatherings, and off-sites, sourcing and liaising with vendors, leadership, and the agency

Personal Assistant Duties

• Handle household and family calendars, including reservations, appointments, pet care, school event planning, and property management
• Research and provide the best options for projects, events, restaurants, travel, and other executive needs, facilitating decisions by bringing solutions, not play-by-play updates
• Liaise with contractors, vendors, and service providers for personal events and gifting
• Keep track of expenses, receipts, and personal budgeting
• Accommodate frequent last-minute travel (commercial), including flights, accommodations, transportation, and itineraries
• Pack, unpack, and ensure all personal and professional items are prepped for travel and appearances
• Handle personal errands, returns, and wardrobe coordination

Requirements

• 3+ years of Executive or Personal Assistant experience supporting C-Suite executives
• Must have a flexible lifestyle: while this is a “9-5” in-office role, there is an on-call element that entails working outside standard business hours, over weekends, and across time zones as needed
• Ability to work primarily in the San Diego office (Fridays remote), with occasional flexibility for remote work – must have a reliable car and valid driver’s license
• Tech Savvy with Apple products, G-Suite, Microsoft Office, Zoom, and Microsoft Teams
• Keen eye for design and detail, aligning events with the partner's coastal Hampton's aesthetic
• Naturally proactive and intuitive: capable of anticipating needs, solving problems independently, and “just getting things done”
• High level of integrity, maintain discretion and confidentiality while managing sensitive matters
• Willing to travel occasionally, with opportunities to accompany the principal to major events and international destinations
• Comfortable in both formal and casual settings — from high-profile events to informal at-home days
