An ad has been posted for a personal assistant for a nine-year-old girl. The duties are virtually identical to those of a live-in nanny, but mining company Ausgold advertised the position as a personal assistant, using the online job search agency Seek.
Ausgold is owned by Chinese businesswoman Sally Zou, and the position would be based in Adelaide. It is understood Ms. Zou has two daughters. The ad requires the suitable candidate to: ‘live in and stay with the girl 7 days a week during the private primary school semesters.’

The ad has now been deleted but also read: ‘kind-hearted, well-spoken, responsible, caring and fun-loving live-in personal assistant required for an energetic and sweet and nine-year-old girl based in Adelaide.’
‘Much of the time you will have sole responsibility for the child as the mother travels frequently.’
A comparative ad for a ‘live-in nanny’ in Sydney requires the candidate to be ‘friendly, polite, honest and able to work unsupervised.’ ‘You will accompany us on our overseas holidays as needed. This is a full-time position and we live in a gorgeous house on the harbor,’ the Seek ad reads.
It is assumed the ad has been placed to look after Ms Zou’s youngest daughter who was previously living in China.

Previously residing in Pymble, NSW, the family moved to Adelaide so Gloria Zou, now 11, could attend St Peter’s Girls School, an Anglican and International Baccalaureate World School at Stonyfell.
Ms. Zou marked her daughter’s first day at the school with a full-page newspaper advertisement. The girl’s eighth birthday on a super-yacht in Sydney’s Pittwater had a celebrity guest list and a public relations campaign.
Before the family’s move to Adelaide, Sally Zou took out an ad in The Advertiser in October 2017 looking to buy a house close to the city that she could call home.

Upon moving to Adelaide, Ms. Zou established two new South Australian-based businesses — AusDiamond Mining and AusFood Alliance, which includes the Australian Romance Wine brand.
One focuses on diamond mining while the other is focused on food and wine exports to the world. Ms. Zou also sponsored the Port Adelaide Power AFL team and established a scholarship for the study of mining engineering at Adelaide University.
