    • Securing priority access to New York City’s most exclusive restaurants, members-only venues, and high-demand reservations
    • Booking and coordinating VIP nightlife experiences, private events, and culturally relevant music and social scenes (e.g., house/techno events, underground and high-profile venues)
    • Providing highly tailored, insider-driven recommendations informed by platforms like Infatuation and real-time industry knowledge
  • Plan and execute complex, high-touch global travel, including multi-leg itineraries, luxury accommodations, villa bookings, private aviation, on-the-ground experiences, and destination-driven dining and events
  • Coordinate and, where applicable, support high-profile and large-scale experiential travel or events (e.g., festival environments, international gatherings, or multi-day curated experiences) with a VIP lens
  • Leverage an established network to unlock access, reservations, and opportunities not available through traditional channels
  • Act as a central liaison across personal staff, vendors, hospitality partners, and key external relationships
  • Support executive-level needs (20–25%), including:
    • Coordinating business global travel that integrates seamlessly with personal plans
    • Managing scheduling, meetings, and occasional office-related priorities
  • Handle all matters with absolute discretion, confidentiality, and sound judgment
  • Anticipate needs before they arise and resolve issues in real time with efficiency and composure
  • Manage and track expenses related to lifestyle, travel, and entertainment
  • Represent the principals with polish, professionalism, and credibility across all interactions

What You Have:

  • 5+ years of experience supporting ultra-high-net-worth individuals in a private office, lifestyle management, or Executive Personal Assistant capacity
  • A deeply embedded and highly active network in New York City, specifically across hospitality, fine dining, nightlife, events, and cultural spaces (required)
  • Proven ability to secure hard-to-access reservations, VIP experiences, and exclusive entry
  • Strong familiarity with NYC’s top-tier restaurant landscape, emerging trends, and culturally relevant scenes (e.g., Infatuation, chef-driven openings, nightlife circuits)
  • Demonstrated experience planning luxury, complex, and highly customized global travel, including experiential and event-based travel
  • Experience supporting or coordinating high-touch events, destination-based experiences, or festival-level logistics is strongly preferred
  • Ability to fluidly transition between lifestyle management and executive support responsibilities
  • Exceptional organizational skills with a meticulous attention to detail
  • Strong communication skills and executive presence
  • High emotional intelligence, discretion, and professionalism in all settings
  • A 24/7 service mindset with flexibility and responsiveness

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal.

Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way.
