A job listing for an โexperiencedโ personal assistant/estate manager has preoccupied the BH office for one reason and one reason only: the employer is an undisclosed Formula 1 driver.
While itโs unclear whether this is someone active or a retired grid veteran, the description notes our ultra-high net worth (UHNW) client has a โwork hard, play hardโ mentality. Candidates are also warned they may be โup late keeping the same hours as the VIPโ with overtime potential for those longer shifts.

โThis is a hybrid position, so the candidate will need to be wearing more than one hat during the day,โ reads the listing posted by executive assistant recruiter Brian Daniel.
โTo reiterate: this role is NOT for the faint of heart.โโ
As for the key locations, while this position is primarily London-based, considerable time will be similarly spent in both Monaco and Sydney with well-furnished private accommodations provided at all three properties.
Now London and Monaco arenโt exactly telling indicators, given the former is within proximity reasonable proximity of at least four constructors (Red Bull Racing, Mercedes, McLaren, Williams); and the latter is a tax haven where the vast majority of drivers are legally โresidentsโ (for obvious reasons). But the Sydney aspect does narrow it down slightly.
In terms of current F1 personalities with an AU affiliation, aside from Daniel Ricciardo and Oscar Piastri โ both of whom hail from states outside of NSW โ thereโs honorary citizen Valtteri Bottas, whoโs dating Aussie cyclist Tiffany Cromwell; and Lance Stroll, whose brother-in-law is Aussie Olympic medallist (and Danny Ricโs good friend) Scotty James.
In terms of retired names that could fit the bill, thereโs Mark Webber and the Brabham brothers. Although who knowsโฆ perhaps the Sydney property is simply a secret holiday home.

Travel flexibilities to other locations, sometimes โfor weeks at a time,โ is another non-negotiable. Meaning if theyโre retired, theyโre still very much active in the scene (perhaps a pundit or a manager?).
But this is all largely irrelevant unless you actually fulfil the following criteria:
- Bachelorโs Degree (required)
- Strong letters of recommendation (required)
- Pass a full background check (required)
- Five-eight years experience (preferred)
- โHas an eye for detail & doesnโt skip a beat
- Comes to work every day & gives it 110%
- Is accountable with a no-excuses attitude
- Has experience working at complex estates with many moving parts
- Can lead domestic staff to exceed expectations every single day
- Can roll up sleeves & lead by example (not afraid to get hands dirty)
The job listing continues: โCandidates with less-restricted passports from Europe and North Americaโฆ have worked for entertainers or professional athletes are preferred, but not a deal breaker.โ
The โcompetitive salaryโ is apparently around the $200,000 benchmark. You can try your luck out (and find out more) via the link below.
