The Daily Mail reports that heโs seeking an โexecutive personal assistantโ whose tasks will include, among other things, choosing his clothes, paying his bills and making sure his fridge is well-stocked.

โข Organise Jermainโs personal needs, ie drycleaners, gardeners, house refurbishments, sourcing interior designers and every day tasks.
โข Regularly check the house when Jermain is away, making sure all is in place for his return, ie fridge is stocked, plants watered and the house clean.
โข Select and organise his wardrobe with specific designers for special events and appearances, ie Oswald Boateng, Harrods, ZAP etc.
The successful candidate will be responsible for booking all of the playerโs social events, including theatre visits, concerts, nights at the cinema, restaurants, spas and family outings.
Those interested in the position must be willing to carry out a variety of โchoresโ and need to be available 24/7. Applicants should also โdemonstrate a high level of discretion and confidentiality and be very flexible, hands-on and capable of multitasking.โ
The application includes a questionnaire asking whether the candidate is comfortable working with high net worth individuals. The playerโs PA will also need to be proficient in social media, as he requires someone who can help him โcreate a global brand for the Jermain Defoe nameโ.
