Personal Assistant / Family Assistant
Location: Cincinnati 45230
Start Date: ASAP
Schedule: Monday–Friday, approximately 4–5 hours per day
Hours: Flexible; ideally 20–25 hours per week
Compensation: $25–$30/hour
Commitment: Long-term
About the Role
A busy family with three school-aged children (10, 8, and 5) is seeking an exceptionally organized, proactive Personal Assistant / Family Assistant to help manage the many moving pieces of their home, schedules, and Mom's business.
This is primarily a personal assistant position, with family and household support incorporated throughout the week. The children are in school during the day, so regular hands-on childcare is not the focus of the role. The right person will be someone who genuinely enjoys organization, creating systems, managing details, and taking ownership of a running to-do list.
The family offers significant flexibility with scheduling. A consistent 4–5 hour block Monday through Friday is ideal, with options such as 9:00 AM–2:00 PM, 10:00 AM–3:00 PM, or 12:00–5:00 PM.
Responsibilities
Personal & Business Assistance
- Receive, unbox, steam, inventory, and organize frequent clothing, accessory, and product deliveries for Mom's business
- Organize items by brand, campaign, or project and maintain clothing racks and inventory systems
- Develop and maintain efficient organizational systems for incoming and outgoing products
- Coordinate returns, donations, receipts, and related documentation
- Assist with calendar and schedule management
- Coordinate occasional travel details and appointments
- Run personal errands and handle miscellaneous administrative needs
Family & Household Assistance
- Manage the family calendar, including children's schoolwork, activities, sports schedules, and equipment
- Keep the family's Skylight calendar current so everyone knows where they need to be
- Grocery shop, meal plan with Mom, and prepare family meals from start to finish
- Family laundry, linens, and seasonal children's clothing organization
- Keep the kitchen and main living spaces tidy and organized
- Organize toys, closets, pantry, refrigerator, and other household areas as needed
- Help prepare the home for the cleaning service and serve as a household point of contact
- Coordinate household appointments, and routine needs
- Occasionally assist with school or activity pickup when needed; a family vehicle can be available
- Potential for occasional overnight childcare while the parents travel once a strong relationship has been established
The Ideal Candidate
The best fit is a self-starter and natural organizer who doesn't need to be given a detailed task list every day. You're someone who can walk into a space, recognize what needs attention, create a system, and keep that system running.
The family would especially value someone who:
- Has previous personal assistant, family assistant, household management, or similar experience
- Is highly organized and detail-oriented
- Takes initiative and follows through without significant oversight
- Is comfortable balancing business, household, and family-related responsibilities
- Enjoys creating routines and systems rather than simply completing one-off tasks
- Is discreet, dependable, efficient, and comfortable working independently
- Is looking for a long-term position and wants to become a trusted part of a family's day-to-day life
This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced assistant who thrives behind the scenes and loves making a busy household—and all the details surrounding it—run more smoothly.
Job Type: Part-time
Pay: $25.00 - $30.00 per hour
