Anahita Jasmine Danielsson

I possess a strong, adaptable personality and am proficient in multiple languages. Over the years, I have gained valuable experience working primarily in contract roles as an Executive Assistant in various industries such as Finance, Gaming, and Property. During the Covid pandemic, I returned to Belgium to support my family business, where I interacted daily with High-Net-Worth Individuals, becoming well-versed in that environment. Subsequently, I spent time in Barcelona, honing my Spanish language skills and working in a fast-paced recruitment firm. Upon my return to the UK, I was offered a position as a Private Executive Assistant to an Ultra High Net Worth individual who had signed a non-disclosure agreement. In this role, I managed a wide range of tasks including business matters, personal affairs, household management, and coordination with art buyers for his collection. It was a demanding but rewarding position that required a hands-on approach. While the role was challenging and taught me valuable interpersonal skills and resilience. I am currently looking for a job in Barcelona, having moved back.
