Q&A for CANDIDATES

1. How much do PAs actually earn in London?

  • The Answer: Salaries vary heavily by sector. According to London recruitment agencies, the average salary for a private PA is £71,000, with a typical range between £40,000 and £85,000.
  • The Catch: Corporate PAs usually have structured pay scales, while private PAs for High-Net-Worth Individuals (HNWIs) can earn over £100,000 but must sacrifice more personal time.

2. Will I have to be on call 24/7?

  • The Answer: If you work as a Corporate PA, your hours are usually standard office hours (e.g., 9:00 AM to 5:30 PM).
  • The Catch: If you are a Private PA, non-traditional schedules are standard. Agencies emphasize that responding at short notice during evenings, weekends, and holidays is a defining part of the job.

3. What interview questions do London employers ask most?

When applying through UK staffing agencies, employers rely heavily on situational questions. You should prepare for:

  • How do you protect highly confidential information? (Testing your discretion).
  • How do you prioritize your day when your boss gives you multiple ‘urgent’ deadlines? (Testing your composure and time management).
  • Can you give an example of a time you anticipated your executive’s needs before they asked? (Testing your proactive thinking).

4. What background checks are legally required in London?

  • The Answer: All London employers must run a Right to Work check to confirm you can legally work in the UK.
  • The Catch: If the PA role involves managing personal finances, luxury properties, or working around a family (common in private PA roles), you will also be required to pass a DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service) criminal record check and strict reference checks. [1, 2]

5. Do I get a company phone or car?

  • The Answer: It depends entirely on your negotiation. Specialist recruiters advise candidates that work mobiles and travel expenses are not always automatically included, so you must explicitly map these out during the contract offer stage.
