Take ownership. Solve problems. Communicate proactively. Learn quickly. Improve systems. Think three steps ahead. I expect people to research, make recommendations, and present solutions—not simply ask what to do next. Communication Expectations Daily Flow: Morning Logged in Today's priorities/projects Midday Progress update Any blockers Recommended solutions End of Day: Completed Outstanding Questions requiring CEO decision This Role Is NOT For You If You need frequent reminders. You wait for instructions. You dislike documentation. You ask questions before researching. You struggle with changing priorities. If you are selected there will be a paid sample assessment which will mirror the type of work you'll be expected to manage. If you contact this company outside of upwork you will be automatically disqualified. To Apply (optional) Record a 1–3 minute Loom (or similar video) introducing yourself and answering this question: Why do you think you'd succeed in a role where your CEO is unavailable most of the day? Finally, include the phrase: "I enjoy creating order from chaos." at the beginning of your proposal so I know you've read the entire job description. Note: Budget was auto generated from the scope.
