Required: Virtual Assistant Experienced in Sourcing Distributors and Wholesale Companies in the US

The company is an Amazon FBA business based in London, UK.

The role will initially consist of the following:

1. You will identify distributors and wholesale companies in the US, using basically methods from your own experience, in combination with other methods that will be discussed in detail with the successful candidate.

2. Calling the distributor with the ultimate purpose of obtaining an inventory feed (price list in spreadsheet format). You will also open a wholesale account with the distributor, which in most cases can be done online.

• Eventually the job will include more tasks, such as researching product profitability using online tools.

• Any experience related to Amazon FBA business, for example listing, using software like Keepa, Jungle Scout, etc., will be considered an additional advantage.

Training will be provided to explain the above in more detail.

Good written and spoken fluency in English, and previous experience in finding distributors and wholesale companies in the US is essential.

Please be aware that this job will require you to make phone calls during office hours in the United States, i.e. during late evening hours in the Philippines.

I will provide hands-on support initially, but I expect the successful candidate to be a “self-starter”, who can take initiative and learn on the job.

IMPORTANT: Include the code word VA180722 in your first line of response.
Also tell me about any prior experience you may have had, and why you think you’d be a good fit for the job.
