Virtual Assistant

At Samako, we’re building one of Europe’s fastest growing premium home & cleaning brands.

We’re looking for a highly proactive and resourceful Operations & Executive Assistant to support our CEO and COO across a wide variety of tasks and projects.

We’re looking for someone smart, organized, fast-learning, and highly reliable who can help us keep the company moving forward.

You’ll work closely with leadership and support multiple departments depending on priorities and workload. One day you might be helping with operational tasks, the next day researching suppliers, organizing reports, assisting customer support, improving processes, or coordinating projects.

* Prepare reports, documents, presentations, and summaries
* Follow up on tasks and help ensure projects move forward
* Handle administrative and coordination tasks
* Communicate with external partners and suppliers

* Take ownership of recurring tasks and improve them over time

What we’re looking for

* Previous experience as a Virtual Assistant is required

* Comfortable working in a fast-moving environment with shifting priorities
* Strong attention to detail
* Tech-savvy and comfortable learning new tools quickly
* Good written and spoken English
* Able to manage multiple tasks simultaneously without losing oversight
* Strong and proactive communication skills are a must

Big pluses

* Experience in the D2C e-commerce space
* Experience working with founders/executives
* Familiarity with tools like ClickUp, Notion, Slack, Google Sheets, Shopify, or Gorgias
* Strong research and analytical skills
* Experience with AI tools like ChatGPT or Claude

What we value

* Ownership over excuses
* Clear and proactive communication
* Speed combined with accuracy
* Continuous improvement mindset
* Being dependable and easy to work with

Why join Samako?

* Work directly with the founders and leadership team
* Fast-growing company with lots of opportunities to learn
* High ownership and impact from day one
* Wide variety of work and responsibilities
* Dynamic environment where your ideas actually matter
