One more time: Virtual Assistant Needed

Hi all, I'm reposting this position because the first person I hired dropped out after just the first week. Very disappointed but willing to give this one last shot.

I’m looking for a dedicated virtual assistant for (hopefully) long term engagement. It will start off as a part-time 20-hour per week position and after a period of assessment, will grow to a full-time position. When you apply, please put what your new years resolution is or else I will not read your application. Please also include your CV.

You will essentially be an extension of me and will handle many of the tasks that I do. I am based out of London, and run a startup as my job and organize large scale professional events (networking, speaker panels, conferences, dinners) on the side. I am very passionate about the tech entrepreneurship space so being interested or knowledgeable in the topic is desirable but not required. Having a smartphone, either Android or iPhone, would be a great plus as I may have you try out different apps. Previous event planning and personal admin experience would also be appreciated.

You are a super-savvy Internet user who knows the best sites to gather information and is an organizational whiz. You are a quick learner and work well without constant supervision. You’re a multitasker who’s able to handle several projects simultaneously. You are a master of efficiency and guru of productivity. You speak and write English well, and professional enough to be client facing. You’re a great communicator and will ask questions when anything is unclear. You’re a proficient user of MS Office Suite, Google Drive, Google Hangouts/Skype, and Photoshop. You are ambitious, growth driven, and seek to complete assignments to the highest standards.

For the part-time duration of the engagement, you are able to work between the hours of 5-9am GMT London time.
