Virtual Academic Assistant

Virtual Academic Assistant – Full-Time (40 hrs/week)

We are looking for a dedicated Academic Assistant to support a student (who is also a C-level executive) currently enrolled in an online Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) program in the United States. The student-employer is managing a demanding schedule and needs consistent academic support to stay on top of coursework, assignments, and study preparation.

Your primary role will be academic support — helping with research, writing, discussion posts, and other academic requirements, as well as preparing study guides and organizing materials for exams and quizzes that the student-employer will personally take. At times, you may also be asked to assist with minimal additional tasks related to the employer’s responsibilities and the development of his clinical practice.

Important Note: The FNP program has four remaining terms (including the current one), ensuring steady, ongoing work for at least the next year. Beyond this, the student-employer plans to pursue continuous education and professional development for years to come. This means the role is not a short-term stint but a stable and evolving opportunity. Over time, there will also be a chance to transition into the business team that will support the healthcare practice after schooling is completed.

Responsibilities:
- Manage and complete academic assignments, discussion posts, and papers
- Conduct research and summarize key points for course requirements
- Assist in preparing study guides and materials for exams and quizzes
- Keep track of deadlines and ensure timely submission of tasks
- Provide ongoing academic support and coordination to keep coursework on track
- Take on minimal additional tasks as needed for business or clinical practice support

Qualifications:
- Strong academic writing and research skills
- Excellent English communication skills (written and verbal)
- Detail-oriented and highly organized
- Ability to work independently and meet deadlines
- Familiarity with healthcare, nursing, or science-related coursework is a plus (but not required)
- Must be available to work 8:00 AM – 6:00 PM CST

What We Offer:
- Remote, full-time position (up to 40 hours per week)
- $5–8/hour compensation (depending on experience and skills)
- Flexible work environment while supporting a US-based student-employer in a professional graduate-level program
- Opportunity to contribute beyond academics to a growing clinical practice
- Career growth: potential to transition into the business team after the FNP program
- Work with a team of competent Virtual Assistants in a culture that values teamwork, collaboration, and radical ownership
- Long-term stability with continued involvement in academic and professional learning
