Personal Assistant to Entrepreneur

This role is ideal for someone who is intelligent, resourceful, discreet, and naturally takes ownership. You should be able to organize information, anticipate needs, solve problems independently, and ensure that important tasks do not get forgotten or delayed.

- Make appointments and communicate with service providers, businesses, team members, and other contacts.
- Monitor emails and messages, identify important items, and prepare responses when appropriate.
- Maintain organized records, documents, receipts, contact information, and task lists.
- Track deadlines, renewals, payments, reservations, and other important dates.
- Assist with purchases, returns, bookings, deliveries, and personal errands that can be managed remotely.
- Help coordinate healthcare appointments, insurance matters, vehicle-related tasks, and other personal logistics.
- Follow up persistently with people and companies to ensure issues are resolved.
- Prepare clear summaries, comparisons, and recommendations to support decisions.
- Handle sensitive personal and business information with complete confidentiality.
- Anticipate upcoming needs and proactively identify potential problems before they become urgent.
- Support additional personal or business projects as needed.
Requirements
- Excellent written and spoken English.

- Strong internet research skills.
- Comfortable using Google Workspace, calendars, spreadsheets, messaging platforms, and task-management tools.
- Able to communicate clearly and provide concise updates.
- Reliable internet connection and a quiet working environment.
- High level of discretion and respect for confidentiality.
- Previous experience as a personal assistant, executive assistant, operations assistant, or similar role is preferred.
