Assistant Celebrity
As a former personal assistant to Hollywood A-listers, millionaires,
billionaires, and even royalty, I'm often asked by aspiring personal
assistants about breaking into the business. The first thing one must
assess is whether or not the change of pace will work for your
personality. The personal assistant role outside of a
traditional corporate environment is quite different from working in an
office. The nice thing about the office job is that it is relatively
predictable. The hours are usually set and the support staff are the
same. However; when working for the wealthy as a Personal Assistant -
sometimes called "Lifestyle Manager" - it can be quite unpredictable. High
net worth families and the jet-set crowd often follow every whim and
random impulse because they can afford it....anyone for lunch in Paris?
For that reason, leaving town at a moment's notice is not only
possible, it's almost standard operating procedure when working for the
uber rich.
