Job requirements:
- Honesty, loyalty, trustworthiness – all the ‘old fashioned’, good stuff.

- Be a good person, we are going to be spending a lot of time together, I want to be able to respect and admire the quality human being you are.

- Common sense, you need to be able to think on your feet and make sensible decisions as you will be acting on my behalf at times.
- I am a problem solver and need someone around me with the same ‘can do’ attitude.
- Intelligent.
- Discretion, be able to tell when to handle matters of my behalf and when to refer matters to me in a summarised fashion, having pre-empted all my questions and have information available for me to be able to make a decision once we have spoken.
- Extremely methodical and meticulous (it wouldn’t be a bad thing to have mild OCD).
- Great computer literacy.
- Must be able to type at least 35 words per minute.
- Enjoy travelling and socialising.
- Be interested in a career, this position has endless growth possibilities as you have the opportunity to become invaluable and be seen at the highest levels, this will be very demanding and require the deepest commitment, but will also be the most stimulating and rewarding engagement of your life.
