Virtual Executive Assistant | Personal, Business & Career Support

I’m looking for a highly organized, proactive, and resourceful Executive & Personal Virtual Assistant to provide ongoing support across my professional life, personal life, career, and growing business. This is not simply a data-entry or task-based VA role. I’m looking for someone who can become a trusted right hand—someone I can hand a task or problem to, who can figure out the logistics, take initiative, and come back to me with either a completed task or a clear recommendation. The ideal person is resourceful, organized, trustworthy, communicative, and comfortable working independently. I value someone who can anticipate next steps, use good judgment, conduct thoughtful research, and reduce the amount of day-to-day administrative work I need to manage myself. ### Responsibilities Personal Administration - Schedule and manage appointments - Research providers, services, and other personal needs - Make reservations and assist with travel research and planning - Assist with calendar management and scheduling - Handle miscellaneous personal errands and administrative tasks that can be completed remotely Email & Administrative Support - Monitor and organize email - Identify and flag messages that require my attention - Draft responses when appropriate - Keep track of outstanding items and follow up on things I’m waiting for - Help keep information, documents, and ongoing tasks organized Career Support - Research relevant job opportunities based on criteria I provide - Organize and track potential opportunities - Assist with tailoring application materials - Help complete and manage job applications under my direction - Research companies, roles, compensation, and other career-related information as needed Business Support I own a growing consumer brand, Sole Society, and would like assistance with a variety of business and e-commerce needs, including: - Researching Meta advertising and digital marketing opportunities - Shopify and general e-commerce administrative support - Vendor research and coordination - Organizing business information and projects - Researching marketing, partnership, and growth opportunities - Helping execute miscellaneous projects as the business grows ### What I'm Really Looking For I want someone who is comfortable hearing: “Can you figure this out for me?” …and taking it from there. You should be someone who can research the options, determine the logical next steps, ask questions when they're genuinely necessary, and otherwise move the task forward independently. For example, instead of simply sending me a list of 15 options and asking what I want to do, I’d love someone who can research those options, narrow them down based on my criteria, and come back with: “These are the three best options, here's why, and this is the one I recommend.” The goal of this role is to take things off my plate rather than create another layer of management for me. ### Ideal Candidate You may be a great fit if you are: - Extremely organized and detail-oriented - Proactive rather than purely reactive - Resourceful and excellent at online research - Comfortable making decisions and recommendations - Able to work independently with minimal hand-holding - Trustworthy and discreet with personal and professional information - A strong written communicator - Tech-savvy and able to learn new platforms quickly - Comfortable switching between personal, professional, and business-related tasks - Good at keeping track of loose ends and following through - Someone who genuinely enjoys making another person's life easier and more organized Experience with Google Workspace/Gmail, calendar management, Shopify, Meta Business Suite/Ads Manager, online research, and executive or personal assistance is a plus. ### About the Role This would ideally become an ongoing working relationship rather than a one-time project. The responsibilities will vary from week to week, so flexibility and comfort with variety are important. Some weeks may involve more business support, while others may include career research, scheduling, email management, travel planning, or personal administrative tasks. Most importantly, I’m looking for someone I can trust over time and gradually delegate more responsibility to as we develop a strong working relationship.
