About Our Client:

Let’s introduce you to the star of the show—our client. He is a confident, passionate, and creative

individual who’s all about film and media. He’s also an artist and loves music—whether it’s listening to music, artwork or watching films. Oh, and did we mention he’s a total night owl?

doesn’t stop him from living life to the fullest. He’s excited to make the most of every opportunity and he needs a like-minded PA to help him do just that.

supporting with studies, and embracing all the experiences that come with student life. One

moment, you might be assisting with daily tasks or keeping things organised; the next, you could be discussing film theories over a late-night takeaway or heading out for a spontaneous adventure.

We’re looking for someone who’s friendly, reliable, and proactive—someone who understands the

balance between being social and giving space when needed. If you love film, media, or music, that’s a bonus, but more importantly, you should be ready to embrace the rhythm of student life, late nights included.

be the perfect role for you!

What We’re Looking For:

• Someone who is physically capable, calm, patient, and genuinely caring.

• Organised, reliable, and able to work on their own initiative.

• Good communication skills and bonus points a great sense of humour!

• A non-smoker.

• Values hygiene and cleanliness
