Executive Assistant in Philippines Time Zone

I need a personal assistant to work Philippines timezone, 11am to 8pm.

I need a PA to call me every day to organize the day's tasks in our shared task manager.

You MUST have positive feedback on your profile to apply for this job.

FLUENT English required. Mandarin a plus.

This work can be done from your computer and I only need you to be available for short periods of time throughout the day to send an email, or to chat with me about tasks.

Voice chat via WhatsApp, Skype, FaceTime, Viber, or a similar smartphone app is required. I need to send you voice messages when I'm not in the office, using my iPhone.

I need someone who can:
- Handle all my emails and respond on my behalf. This will require you calling me and asking what kind of response is required. Over time you'll learn more and more and be able to respond yourself.


- Follow things up... you'll need to keep yourself organized so if you're waiting a response from someone and you don't get it... that you follow them up or contact me to say you've received no response.

- Help me to find buyers for my half price 4-5-star hotel nights.

- Help me manage my tasks in my productivity software.

- Help me manage my dating life/profile

- Remind me of things I need to do that I said I would do for folks.

- help me organize my travel plans, optimize my travel hacking credit card points.

- perform quality online research, ability to filter past just the first results and provide a synthesis of information from multiple sources with references

- transcribe video content.

- create meeting minutes and follow up notes from video recordings.


IMPORTANT: You must be able / willing to speak (voice) with me over WhatsApp or similar smartphone app (Where voice messages can be left, as well as voice chatting can be done). The idea is I speak to you (or sometimes send a voice message), and you do the typing rather than me doing the typing.

IMPORTANT: I am looking for someone who is reasonable tech-savvy. Many of my emails are about big data or Upgrade to see actual info's preferable if you understand these concepts on a technical level. You won't be doing this technical work... but you will be liaising with contractors who are doing this technical Upgrade to see actual infoTE: If you have marketing experience (design, print, copyrighting, etc) then that helps as well - but not totally necessary.

Example:
I'll route certain emails from my project management software to you. You contact me on Skype / Viber / similar and tell me what questions have come in from a contractor. I'll explain what my reply should be and you type / send the reply

Example:
A certain email might be asking for some information that can easily be found on Google somewhere. You find it, and send it to that person.

Example:
Throughout the day I might send you a few voice recordings of things I need done, or emails that need to be sent. You'd listen / transcribe the audio and send the email.

Example:
I said I'd handle a particular problem but you see that nothing has been done yet. You contact me to ask why I haven't done it, or if you should update the other party to let them know I'm delayed.

So it's all quite basic PA stuff, mostly typing / emails, but you MUST be able to ensure everything is followed-up on so things aren't forgotten.

This job MAY lead to more "office management" work where you handle more and more of my correspondence, research, planning, co-ordinating my calendar, Upgrade to see actual info all depends on how good you are!

To apply, please outline your experience with I.T, marketing, and of course PA / typing. Outline your availability and confirm that you can voice communicate using a smartphone app... AND please start your application with "I am the best person for this position because..." and confirm that you speak FLUENT English
