About the RoleWe're looking for a sharp, self-sufficient Virtual Assistant to join a growing web development and marketing business. This isn't a hand-holding role — it's one where you'll hit the ground running, take real ownership, and make a visible impact from day one. If you're the kind of person who spots a problem and fixes it before anyone has to ask, who takes pride in clean communication and quality work, and who genuinely enjoys wearing multiple hats — this role was built for you. You'll be working closely with the business owner to support everything from client communication and project management to SEO content and technical website support.
What You'll Be DoingCustomer Service & Client Communication- Rapidly communicate with clients when website issues arise, keeping them informed every step of the way
- Send regular project updates and timeline check-ins so clients always know where things stand
- Review requests to determine if they fall within scope — and when they don't, prepare and send updated scopes for client approval
- Streamline and manage the ticket support system and internal processes
Service Delivery- Write SEO-compliant content and compelling sales copy
- Manage website hosting and provide technical support for clients (PHP, JavaScript, WordPress)
- Troubleshoot and resolve website issues as they come up
- Manage WordPress updates and ensure sites remain current
- Ensure websites meet SEO and ADA compliance standards
- Use, strategize, and leverage AI tools to build plugins and continuously improve product quality
- Support project management by building out systems, coordinating with team members, and keeping deliverables and timelines on track
Marketing- Support marketing efforts from strategy and benchmarking through to execution
- Manage and optimize Google Ads campaigns
Admin- Manage email and respond to clients in a timely, professional manner
- Handle bookkeeping using QuickBooks
- Support tax preparation and ensure ongoing tax compliance
- Write Scopes of Work and client contracts
What We're Looking For- You are genuinely self-sufficient — you troubleshoot, problem-solve, and figure things out without needing to be walked through every step
- You have a portfolio that demonstrates your skills in action — claims without proof won't cut it here
- You are comfortable with a "show and tell" interview where you'll walk through your work and demonstrate practical ability before any hire decision is made
- You have hands-on experience with WordPress, SEO, Google Ads, and client-facing communication
- You write clearly and professionally — whether it's a client email, a scope of work, or a sales page
- You are organized, proactive, and take ownership of your responsibilities without being chased
You bring the skills, the drive, and the portfolio to back it up — we'd love to see what you've got. Apply and show us what you can do.
