The responsibilities of a PA role are extremely varied and will usually be tailored to the individual or business. Business PA responsibilities will depend on their level of seniority and whether or not they’re supporting an individual or team. Hybrid PAs might support leaders on both personal and business affairs, while private PAs will be wholly looking after their principals’ personal matters.
Either way, a high profile personal assistant’s responsibilities will be of immense value to an individual or small management team. The skillset behind a PA’s ability to support and pre-empt their manager’s behaviors should not be underestimated! And, because a PA is the first point of contact for anyone wanting to connect with the business leader, they can relieve them of an enormous amount of time and pressure.
A business PA can be responsible for diary management, creating detailed travel itineraries, managing inboxes, answering calls and overseeing the creation of contracts, client packs and other documents. They can also organize meetings, manage events, order refreshments and ensure minutes are taken.
A private PA can complete personal tasks to support the life of a private family or individual. The role is highly variable, often including extensive liaison with household staff as well as supporting a Principal in their family office role.
The traditional PA role has evolved significantly in recent years – the position is no longer solely made up of meeting coordination and touch-typing! From project management through to being a leader’s 2IC, a great PA is often degree-qualified and extremely capable.
