CEO Assistant

Grupo La Familia brings together some of Marbella’s most dynamic brands — Cascada Marbella (restaurant & events), Orovia Estates (real estate), ARU by Lagarde (catering), Costa Rentals (property management), and every year, new projects in tourism and mobility. All under the management of one CEO.

We’re looking for a smart, organized, and fast-thinking Executive Assistant to support our CEO across all companies. If you love structure, technology, and solving problems before they happen, this role is for you.

Tasks

• This is not a job for everyone.
• If you’re looking for comfort, routine, or easy wins — this isn’t it.

You’ll be working directly with a CEO who is relentless. Brilliant, focused, often demanding — sometimes cold, and then suddenly the kindest person in the room. He expects a lot, because he gives a lot. You’ll need to keep up, stay sharp, and learn fast. There’s no hiding here.

You’ll be the second most demanding role in the group, right next to him. Supporting several companies at once — restaurants, real estate, catering, rentals, and new projects that move faster than most people can process. You’ll handle pressure, priorities, and problems every single day.

• We don’t need perfect. We need strong.
• Emotionally intelligent, grounded, and self-aware. Someone who doesn’t break when things get intense, who understands that every correction is a lesson, not a criticism.
• You’ll have moments when it feels impossible — and then you’ll realize you just did it. Because here, we teach fast, expect a lot, and we reward those who rise to it.
• Work with us for three years, and you’ll walk away with the kind of experience most people take a decade to earn.

If you’re driven, unafraid, and humble enough to learn from people who know more than you, this might be the most valuable chapter of your career.
