Part-Time Travel & Lifestyle Assistant for a Digital Nomad (Research, Bookings, Admin)

Posted last month

Worldwide

Summary

About the role: I'm an entrepreneur who runs my business full-time while living in a new country roughly every three months. I'm looking for a sharp, proactive assistant to take travel and lifestyle admin off my plate so I can focus on work and enjoy each place. This is an ongoing part-time role (about 20–25 hours/week) with room to grow as we build trust. What you'll do: - Research and shortlist apartments/homes for ~3-month stays that match my taste and budget, then handle bookings. - Message and negotiate with landlords and hosts on price and terms. - Research and book flights and rental cars. - Suggest and plan weekend trips from wherever I'm based. - General travel admin: itineraries, visa/entry-requirement checks, reservations, and keeping everything organised in one place. You're a great fit if you: - Write excellent, natural English. - Are genuinely proactive — you bring me options and a recommendation, not just questions. - Have previous experience in travel research and admin. - Are responsive and reliable within agreed hours. - Enjoy research, comparison, and getting details right (dates, prices, fine print). - Are comfortable with light negotiation and talking to strangers on my behalf. Hours: - ~20–25 hours/week. - Some overlap with my hours for real-time decisions; otherwise flexible. Hiring process: - Short written application → a quick call → a small paid trial task → ongoing role.
