About Nawaf Aljanabi:
A versatile MS in Global Business graduate with a unique background spanning alternative investment due diligence and high-level executive support. I excel as a strategic partner to senior leadership, combining my analytical roots in economics with the discretion and organizational mastery required for EA/PA roles within private family offices. I am a proactive relationship-builder who thrives on managing complex professional and personal logistics, ensuring seamless operations in high-pressure, high-net-worth environments.
Experience
Results-driven finance professional and white-glove Executive Assistant with 4+ years of experience spanning private equity, real estate investments, venture capital, and high-touch UHNW family support. I bring a rare dual skill set: the analytical rigor of an investment associate and the operational excellence of a trusted personal chief of staff.
On the investment side, I've contributed to $200M+ portfolios across institutions including the Kuwait Investment Authority and Wafra, building LBO models, DCF analyses, and investment memoranda that accelerate decision-making and LP reporting. I currently support a $500M AUM private family office in Beverly Hills, conducting end-to-end due diligence on private equity, venture capital, and real estate transactions while leveraging AI-powered tools to reduce screening timelines by 40%.
As an Executive and Personal Assistant, I deliver concierge-level, 24/7 support to visionary entrepreneurs and UHNW families. I orchestrate complex global travel logistics — including private aviation, luxury accommodations, and real-time itinerary management — across the US, Canada, and internationally. I manage 20–35+ weekly appointments across multiple time zones with 100% schedule accuracy, oversee multi-estate operations with detailed inventory systems, and serve as a trusted liaison to celebrities, PR firms, chefs, luxury brand partners, and household staff. My approach is anticipatory: I stay ten steps ahead so principals never have to ask twice.
I've processed $250K+ in annual household expenses with meticulous accuracy, systemized administrative processes using digital tools, and handled 50+ daily communications across email, calls, and threads — all with extreme discretion. From event planning and vendor oversight to last-minute travel pivots, I thrive in fast-paced, ever-changing environments where excellence is non-negotiable.
Holding a Master of Science in Global Business from Pepperdine University (GPA 3.9) and a Bachelor's in Economics from the University of Arizona (GPA 3.9), I combine academic rigor with real-world adaptability — equally comfortable building a financial model and coordinating a private jet departure.
