When principals engage us

When the work needs one accountable owner.

Bring a private operating environment under control.

Residences, aircraft, yachts, staff, vendors, records, budgets, and open decisions need clear ownership.

Tighten staff, vendors, costs, or standards.

Roles, service levels, spend, contract terms, and accountability need direct senior oversight.

Represent the owner on a project.

Renovations, construction, design work, moves, handovers, and upgrades need one person driving momentum.

Support a family office with execution.

Reporting, approvals, records, budgets, advisors, and operational follow-through need structure.

Manage a sensitive purchase, event, or obligation.

High-value purchases, private events, travel, equestrian commitments, and special projects need discreet coordination.

Where we fit

One owner for the work between teams.

Jaki works between the principal, family office, household staff, HR, security, counsel, vendors, brokers, aircraft teams, and project teams.

We are not a multi-family office or a placement firm. We run the work that needs senior judgment, clear reporting, and direct follow-through.

First phase

Simple start. Clear control.

01

Assessment

Map the assets, staff, vendors, budgets, records, risks, and open decisions.

02

Stabilization

Assign ownership, gather records, set reporting, resolve urgent issues, and stop operational drift.

03

Execution

Coordinate people, vendors, approvals, budgets, and follow-through until the work is complete.

Engagements

Structured around the work.

Most engagements are monthly retainers with a defined scope, reporting cadence, decision path, and escalation process. Defined projects are used when the work has a clear start and finish.

Begin a conversation

Selective by design.

We work with only a few clients at a time, so each engagement gets direct senior attention and continuity.

Engagements begin with a confidential conversation. Please reach out directly.
