About the Role

I’m looking for a smart, organised person to help me stay on top of projects, plans, and priorities across my businesses — a growing self-storage company and a social enterprise called SeeMySkills.

This isn’t about running errands or answering phones. It’s about keeping things moving behind the scenes — helping me stay focused, prepared, and productive while I travel and grow the business.

?

What You’ll Do
• Track milestones across business projects and keep an eye on deadlines.
• Prepare simple weekly summaries and action lists for me.
• Research opportunities — from potential new sites to grants and trends.
• Gather key data or insights from reports and present them clearly.
• Help manage my CRM and contact list (LinkedIn and beyond).
• Book flights and travel when needed.
• Draft or tidy up short pieces — messages, summaries, or posts — based on my notes and ideas.

?

You’ll Suit This Role If You
• Are naturally organised and take initiative.
• Can think independently and get things done without constant guidance.
• Enjoy research, writing, and making sense of information.
• Are comfortable using Google Drive, Excel/Sheets, and online tools.
• Have an interest in business and purpose-led work.

?

Hours & Flexibility
• Start with 8 hours a week — flexible, remote, outcome-focused.
• If it works well, there’s scope to expand the role.
