(2017-12 - 2025-06)

I also provided PA support, including travel arrangements, bookings, errands, and mentoring the youngest son throughout his Porsche racing career.
Responsibilities included grounds maintenance, vehicle care, stock control, chauffeur duties, school transport, and general household support.

(2012-07 - 2017-12)
Provided discreet, security-conscious support within a private household, managing chauffeuring, travel, school runs, estate security, staff, maintenance projects, and the family vehicle fleet. I also coordinated contractors, household errands, and the day-to-day running of the estate, ensuring everything operated smoothly and efficiently. During the principals' absence, I maintained the property, cared for the dogs, and ensured the house remained secure and fully prepared for their return.
I was trusted to work independently and to uphold the family's standards of privacy, reliability, and presentation at all times. This role strengthened my experience in private estate management, staff coordination, and high-level household support, while building a strong foundation in trust, responsibility, and attention to detail.
