Strategic EA for Busy Lawyer (Not a Task-Taker Role, EST Hours)

We’re hiring a high-level Executive Assistant to support a busy lawyer running their own firm. This is not a basic VA role. We’re looking for someone who can think, prioritize, and operate independently.

Must be available during Eastern Standard Time (EST) hours, Monday - Friday
Long-term opportunity for the right person

What You’ll Own
Inbox management and drafting/responding to emails
Calendar management and scheduling across multiple priorities
Travel booking and logistics coordination
Drafting basic contracts and documents
Tracking expenses, invoices, and administrative workflows
Keeping the day-to-day operations organized and moving forward

What We’re Looking For
Minimum 3+ years as an Executive Assistant or Virtual Assistant
Experience supporting someone in legal or financial environments (required)
Strong written English and professional communication
Extremely organized and detail-oriented
Comfortable handling confidential and sensitive information

What Sets You Apart
You are not just executing tasks. You:
Anticipate what needs to happen before being asked
Bring solutions, not just problems
Can prioritize when everything feels urgent
Think like an operator, not an assistant
How to Apply
To be considered, include:
A short paragraph on your experience supporting a legal or financial professional
