– Lisbon
Location: Lisbon / Cascais / Oeiras area, Portugal
Role type: Full-time
Working style: Highly in-person, flexible, with regular travel
Job Summary
We are looking for an exceptional House Manager to support a busy entrepreneur and family across personal logistics, travel, calendar, inbox, household coordination and daily life operations. This is not a traditional office-based assistant role. It is a high-trust, highly practical, in-person role for someone who enjoys creating order around a fast-moving principal and family life.
The core mission is simple: Remove decisions, admin, logistics, friction and unnecessary communication so the principal can focus on business, family, health and high-value work. The ideal person is proactive, discreet, service-minded, highly organised and comfortable doing everything from calendar and inbox management to travel logistics, errands, restaurant bookings, food coordination, Portuguese admin, packing support during travel, and working with household staff and external providers.
Key Responsibilities
1. Daily life and personal operations
You will help run the principal’s personal operating system.
Responsibilities include:
- Managing daily logistics and priorities
- Managing and protecting the calendar
- Booking flights, hotels, transport and restaurants
- Coordinating with the maid and other household providers
- Coordinating groceries and meals
- Helping maintain routines during travel
- Handling Portuguese bureaucracy and appointments
- Highly organised and detail-oriented
- Private PA
- The principal spends much less time on admin, logistics and small decisions
- Calendar
- Regular in-person work
Clear communication, trust, good judgment and reliability are more important than being constantly busy. COMPENSATION Compensation will be competitive and based on experience, capability and fit. The right person will have the opportunity to build a long-term, trusted role with significant responsibility and variety.
REQUIREMENTS Essential
- Fluent Portuguese
- Experience as a private PA, EA, lifestyle manager, family office assistant or luxury concierge
