Administrative Assistant and Business Manager

Intechnic

  • Posted : 4 years ago

TELECOMMUTE                                                   LOCATION: Remote, US


I am looking for an administrative assistant who will help me be more productive, allow me to focus on high-level project objectives by covering the day-to-day tasks, and assist me in running a leading User Experience consultancy. To make this relationship successful, you must be a quick learner and hard worker, possess world-class organization skills, and exceptional attention to detail.


Because I will give you tasks with fewer details than I should, I will need you to be able to work independently and with little instruction. I will probably frustrate you at times, but I promise you a rewarding, fast-paced, well-compensated, and high growth career.


Are you still reading? Awesome! I will need you to take tasks and projects off my plate I can be bad at delegating, though I really need it. Sometimes I have a hard time letting go of important tasks. However, once I let go, I let go!


Versatility is key. The work will include a wide variety of tasks, such as: documenting and organizing various business processes, doing research, proofreading, record-keeping, note-taking during meetings (internally and with clients), interviewing, scheduling, organizing business logistics, etc.


I am looking for a right-hand someone who can make my life easier and take off some of the load. Your first project will be to shadow me, understand my workflow, and review the projects and tasks in my pipeline. Then, you will help me optimize it. We will also be repeating this exercise for reviewing, documenting, and optimizing many of our business processes throughout the company from production to sales.


You are a master of everything you try because you don t give up, you re resourceful, and you re an excellent problem solver. Most importantly, you are motivated and passionate about getting every project done with excellence and giving it your 110%. I can always depend on you.


English is not my first language, so I am looking for someone with excellent writing and communication skills. Tech savviness is important, too. I need somebody who is extremely comfortable with learning new technology, applications, and processes quickly.


I must click well with whoever I find, so a bit about me: I work a lot and take pride in delivering world-class results to my clients. I consult some of the world s largest brands and that can be challenging at times, but I love it! I m an author, speaker, consultant I love what I do, but I hope that with your help I can work a little less.


You can learn more about me from my website: https://www.uxmaster.com/
