ABOUT THIS ROLE
Personal assistants provide direct, day-to-day support to an individual, typically a business owner, director or senior manager, handling diary management, correspondence, travel arrangements, errands and the personal and professional tasks that keep their day running smoothly. The role demands genuine discretion, adaptability and the ability to anticipate what’s needed before being asked, since the value of a good PA often shows up in the problems that never become problems.
In Brisbane, personal assistants work across a wide range of businesses and industries, supporting business owners, executives and busy professionals who need someone they can trust to manage both their schedule and the smaller details that would otherwise fall through the cracks. Demand is steady, and the right candidate is valued less for technical skill than for judgement, discretion and reliability.
Our recruitment guide on hiring administration and office support staff in Brisbane explains why good candidates are harder to find right now, and what separates a PA who anticipates needs from one who simply reacts to them.
What We Screen For
Demonstrated Personal or Executive Assistant Experience
Candidates should have hands-on experience supporting an individual directly, whether in a personal assistant, executive assistant or comparable support role.
Discretion and Trustworthiness
The role often involves access to sensitive personal and business information. Candidates need a genuine track record of discretion and trustworthiness.
Organisation and Diary Management
Strong organisational skills are essential, including the ability to manage a complex, shifting schedule and prioritise competing demands.
Initiative and Anticipation
The best personal assistants solve problems before they’re asked to. Candidates need to demonstrate genuine initiative rather than just following instructions.
Communication and Professionalism
The role requires clear, professional communication, often representing the person they support in correspondence and interactions with others.
Flexibility and Adaptability
Personal assistant work rarely follows a fixed routine. Candidates need to adapt quickly when priorities or demands change at short notice.
