Administrative Assistant

I’m looking to hire a GREAT assistant. If you consider yourself one of the top 5 most productive, highest performing, and dependable persons you’ve ever met, then read on.

I’m seeking a virtual assistant who can devote significant time and attention to assisting me with many work tasks that will require a deep skillset for a (hopefully) long-term engagement.

You are a very quick learner and work well without constant supervision.

You are a super-savvy Internet user who loves Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook. You can’t wait to create spreadsheets & databases and can mirror my style, formats and use of Word. You design awesome PowerPoint presentations with minimal direction from me.

You know how to take questions and concerns or ideas from me and then find great examples on the Worldwide Web that you will convert into useful documents, presentations or meaningful solutions.

Being extremely organized is a given and comes easy for you! You know what to anticipate and can present ideas and solutions to work challenges in advance of my asking.

You hold me accountable, so we together meet and exceed expectations, milestones and deliverables. A trust-relationship is very important to you and expect nothing less from me.

If you have an excellent grasp on the written word and can write in a business manner but also craft descriptive narrative, you will peak my interest in you!

You find ways to make the routine and the mundane exciting. You are a master of efficiency and a guru of productivity. You speak and write English well, and are available to work full-time for the foreseeable future, with at least a few hours overlap with US Central time 7:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m. You’re comfortable with social media and genuinely care about helping people.

An interest in community and business development is a huge plus, as is experience in website and social media development. You’ll be doing daily website & social media maintenance and marketing for a growing economic development consulting firm that assists rural communities in America with their growth and prosperity.

If this is you, please apply with your resume and references. I will review the application submissions and probably ask the strongest contenders to submit a few trial tasks before moving to interview stage.
