Project Manager + VA — Long-Term "Unblocker" Upwork job post · Remote · $15- 20/hr · ~12–16 hrs/week · 6-month rolling About the role I run several small businesses, a product, investments and a community alongside my own job. I'm looking for one sharp, reliable person to be my unblocker. Your job is to spot what's stuck, unstick it yourself where you can, and bring me a decision-ready recommendation where you can't. Nothing should sit waiting because nobody chased it. This is a "stress transfer" role — you're the coordinator in the middle keeping my people and projects moving. It is not fast-paced agency work. It's steady, organized, long-term ownership of the operational glue, and it grows with you. What you'll own Product — Roadmap and backlog upkeep, specs, release coordination, user feedback, QA follow-through. Finance — Invoices, expenses, budget tracking, contractor payments, coordinating accountants (India + US). Notes — Meeting notes, decision logs, and a searchable knowledge base so nothing gets lost. System arrangement — Setting up and tidying the tool stack, automations, integrations, access and folder structure. Website — Coordinating the developer, site updates, landing pages, forms, uptime and SEO basics. Content — Briefs, drafts, edits, scheduling and repurposing across channels. Newsletter — Writing, editing, scheduling and sending; list hygiene; performance tracking. Targets — Setting targets per workstream and running the weekly/monthly review against them. Time & calendar — Protecting my focus time, batching, prioritizing, keeping the calendar clean and conflict-free. Coordination — Recurring checklists (bills, rent, developer blockers, deadlines) and small projects end-to-end: sourcing contractors, outreach, chasing documents, light research. Documentation — Building SOPs and short training videos each month so the system improves and can hand off to a junior over time. What this role is NOT Not high-speed, high-volume agency delivery. Not 40+ hrs/week or a big-budget operation. Not the face of the business — you're the reliable operator behind it. Who I'm looking for An experienced PM/VA who is organized, proactive and low-drama. Someone who chases without being asked twice and closes loops. Comfortable with ambiguity — you turn vague asks into checklists and finish them. Strong written English; can draft outreach, content and a newsletter. Comfortable with tools, automation and documenting processes. Reliable long-term; happy to train a junior and eventually hand off. Hours, rate & terms Rate: $15-20 / hour. Hours: ~12–16 hours / week, flexible. Term: 6-month initial contract, renewable; intended as a long-term relationship. Platform: All work, communication and payment through Upwork. How to apply — please answer these Briefly: your PM/VA background and a similar coordinator role you've held. Tell me about a time you unblocked something that was stuck — what was stuck, and what did you do? How do you keep multiple small projects and people on track each week? Which of the areas above are you strongest and weakest in? Your timezone and the working-hours overlap you can offer. Send 5–10 clarifying questions you'd ask before starting.
