Job description

We’re hiring an Entry-Level Administrative Assistant (Remote / Work From Home) to help support and strengthen our daily operations across the UAE and Saudi Arabia markets. This role is designed for someone who enjoys structured work, clear routines, and staying organized while handling multiple small tasks that keep a business running smoothly behind the scenes. You will play an important supporting role by maintaining accurate information, keeping trackers up to date, and ensuring that important admin tasks are completed correctly and on time.

Your primary focus will be on organization, accuracy, and consistency. You’ll help the team by managing and updating spreadsheets, cleaning and validating records, tracking tasks from start to finish, organizing documents and notes, and making sure actions are properly documented. Many teams move faster when data is clean and information is easy to find—your work will directly support that speed and clarity.

If you like working from checklists, following clear steps, and being the person who notices details others miss (such as missing fields, formatting issues, or duplicate entries), you’ll be a strong fit here. This role is ideal for someone who takes pride in completing tasks thoroughly and enjoys building order out of busy workflows.

You do not need years of experience for this role. What matters most is your ability to follow instructions carefully, handle repetitive tasks without losing focus or accuracy, and communicate clearly when something is missing, confusing, or inconsistent. We are happy to train the right person—especially someone who is dependable, detail-oriented, and eager to learn. This position is also a great stepping stone for candidates who want to grow into operations, administration, coordination, scheduling, reporting, or quality support roles in the future.

What You’ll Do (daily Responsibilities)

• Data entry, updates & record maintenance
• Review spreadsheets and databases daily and update entries based on new information, edits, or team instructions.
• Standardize formatting across records, including names, email addresses, phone numbers, countries, company details, and internal notes.
• Identify and remove duplicates, merge repeated records, and correct obvious errors such as incorrect country entries, invalid phone formats, or mismatched fields.
• Confirm that all required fields are filled in correctly and flag missing or unclear information for follow-up.
• Keep records clean and reliable so customer service, operations, and coordination teams can work quickly without confusion.
• Maintain consistent structure so reports and filters work properly and information can be searched easily.
• Inbox support & task coordination
• Assist in sorting, labeling, and categorizing incoming requests (admin tasks, follow-ups, approvals, documentation requests, urgent items).
• Route requests to the correct person or team member, and log them in a tracker so nothing is missed.
• Track progress until completion, including checking status, updating notes, and confirming that final steps were completed.
• Send reminders for pending tasks, missing documents, incomplete forms, or overdue actions.
• Keep communication professional, clear, and concise so issues can be resolved quickly.
• Reporting, trackers & end-of-day summaries
• Maintain daily trackers such as: new records created, records reviewed, records cleaned, tasks completed, tasks pending, and follow-ups required.
• Prepare simple summaries at the end of each day outlining what was accomplished and what needs attention the next day.
• Highlight any blockers (missing information, unclear instructions, or approvals needed) so the team can resolve them promptly.
• Identify recurring patterns—such as frequently missing fields, repeated formatting issues, or common errors—and report them so processes can be improved over time.
• Support basic performance visibility by keeping trackers accurate, neat, and consistently updated.
• Scheduling & coordination (light support when needed)
• Provide light scheduling assistance by confirming availability, coordinating time windows, and updating calendars when requested.
• Send reminder messages and confirmations to reduce missed steps and improve follow-through.
• Track attendance, completion, or progress for onboarding steps, training checklists, and internal process tasks.
• Maintain clear documentation so others can quickly see what has been scheduled, confirmed, or completed.
• Quality control, documentation & organization hygiene
• Double-check spreadsheet entries before submission or handover to ensure accuracy and completeness.
• Ensure naming conventions are followed across files, folders, sheets, and trackers so everything remains easy to locate.
• Maintain consistent file organization and clean documentation so workflows remain smooth and team members can access what they need quickly.
• Keep records clean, tidy, and standardized so operations and customer-facing teams can move faster with fewer errors and fewer back-and-forth questions.

Performance expectations (what success looks like)

• High accuracy: minimal errors, careful validation, and consistent attention to detail
• Steady output: reliable daily completion of assigned items without major delays
• Clear communication: proactive updates when blocked, and quick clarification when something is unclear
• Strong organization habits: clean files, consistent formatting, and well-maintained trackers
• Reliable follow-through: tasks are completed, confirmed, and documented—not left half-finished

Requirements

• Comfortable using Google Sheets and/or Microsoft Excel (filters, formatting, copying data, basic organization)
• Strong attention to detail and the ability to follow SOPs, step-by-step workflows, and written instructions
• Basic written communication skills (clear, professional, and straightforward)
• Stable internet connection and ability to work independently while staying responsive
• Entry-level friendly — training is provided, and clear instructions/checklists are available

Work details

• Type: Full-time or part-time options depending on workload and business needs
• Location: Fully remote (work from home)
• Schedule: Flexible working windows, but consistent availability and dependable response times are required

Why this role is a great fit

This is a strong foundation role that helps you build real operational skills that transfer across many industries: spreadsheet mastery, administrative workflow support, data hygiene, documentation habits, task tracking, and quality checks. You’ll learn how to keep systems organized, follow structured processes, and support multiple stakeholders effectively.

If you consistently deliver accurate work and maintain strong organization, there is clear growth potential into roles such as Senior Administrative Assistant, Operations Coordinator, Team Lead, QA/Quality Support, or Reporting & Process Coordinator.
