Summary

EXPERIENCED PERSONAL & EXECUTIVE ASSISTANT (PART-TIME, GROWING TO FULL-TIME) ABOUT THE ROLE I'm looking for a highly experienced personal assistant who can take ownership of the admin side of my life, both personal and business. This isn't an entry-level position: I need someone who has already done this work at a high level for other clients and knows how to run a smooth, well-organized life and schedule without needing constant direction. This role starts part-time (roughly 5-10 hours/week) with a clear path to full-time as trust builds and scope expands. ABOUT US ORIRI Marketing is an ambitious, fast-growing digital marketing agency helping health and wellness e-commerce brands scale profitably. We move at a fast pace, reward high performance, and recognize good talent quickly. We're looking for people who want to grow with us for the long run, not just take on a short-term gig. This role will support our Founder, Paul, directly. It's an extremely important position for the business: the right person will free Paul up to focus on growth by taking full ownership of the admin side of his life and work. Learn more about us at www.oririmarketing.com WHAT YOU'LL OWN - Calendar and scheduling: managing my calendar, booking appointments, resolving conflicts, and protecting my time - Inbox and communications: triaging email, drafting responses, following up on outstanding items - Travel planning: booking flights, hotels, and itineraries, and troubleshooting when plans change - Personal admin: bills, subscriptions, household logistics, appointments, and other recurring life tasks - Business admin: light research, document prep, expense tracking, and coordinating with other people I work with - Ad hoc projects: anything that reduces the number of small tasks sitting on my plate WHO I'M LOOKING FOR - Proven experience as a personal or executive assistant, ideally supporting founders, executives, or high-net-worth individuals - Someone who takes initiative: I want you to notice inefficiencies and suggest fixes, not wait to be told what to do - Excellent written and spoken English is essential: near-native fluency, clear and professional communication at all times - Discretion with sensitive/personal information - Comfortable working independently with minimal oversight once you understand my preferences - Based in or able to work substantially overlapping hours with my timezone RATE Targeting $10-16/hour depending on experience. Open to discussing based on your background. HOW TO APPLY In your application, please include: 1. A short summary of your PA/EA experience, including the types of clients and responsibilities you've handled 2. One or two specific examples of ways you proactively saved a previous client time or solved a problem before being asked 3. Your availability and preferred working hours 4. Any tools/software you're comfortable with (calendar, email, task management, expense tracking, etc.) 5. A short (30-60 second) intro video, e.g. a Loom or YouTube link, so I can hear your spoken English and get a feel for how you communicate I'm hiring for the long term and want this to grow into a full-time working relationship with the right person.
