Gee,
Maybe the post requirements have changed since the last incumbent and they haven't appreciated that. Maybe that company doesn't actually need someone at your level, if all that is being offered is little things. It is possible that they have a PA because they think they ought to have one - which isn't a good way of running a business. "I'm a manager now and I need a PA because PAs are what managers have". None of that makes good business sense.
If you have time on your hands, maybe you could read through past correspondence and files and get a good handle on that company. And work out whether after six months you really want to be there.
In my own post, I know that if my predecessor (who left some 11 years ago - I have been here nearly ten years) came back, she wouldn't have a clue how to do this job because the nature of the work, and the level at which the work is done, has altered so much. Maybe a similar change has happened to your current post. Companies don't always do the rational thing when a post becomes vacant, i.e. consider whether the job is actually required and what the job really should be.
