These activities require a depth of technical and strategic thought and actions, accuracy, attention to detail, and consistency in deliverables.  This is a blended position requiring MS Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook/email, and MS Access skills, with both marketing and administrative acumen.

As a Business Support Analyst - Virtual Assistant, your tasks will vary based on client and Firm needs and your skills, including performing general executive assistant duties; formatting and typing documents; making travel arrangements; managing calendars; arranging meetings and appointments; performing research and setting up opportunity pipelines; updating social media; writing articles and content.

Managing non-work-related distractions while working on their tasks and reminding them of deadlines are critical to success.
• Quick Thinking and Effective Decision Making:  The capability to think and make the right decisions promptly is vital, especially in times when the client leaves a specific virtual assistant task and would not be around to answer questions or provide clarifications.
• Love for Continuous Learning:  Stay at the top of the game; learn on a daily basis. Treat every day differently and watch out for learning curves.  Because the nature of the job allows more freedom, one must be motivated and disciplined enough in order to succeed.
