Ideal For: Accounting, business, or finance students; meticulous bookkeeper/banker types; detail-oriented remote administrative professionals

We are seeking a sharp, organized, and reliable Administrative & Logistics Assistant to provide direct operational support. This is a practical, behind-the-scenes role focused on keeping orders logged, schedules running smoothly, travel coordinated, and communications clear.

If you thrive on spreadsheets, love crossing tasks off a checklist, and have the exactness of a banker or accountant, this position offers flexible, remote work with direct leadership access.

Key Responsibilities

Order & Inventory Logging: Accurately enter, track, and maintain client orders and log data using Excel and Microsoft SharePoint.

Travel & Accommodations: Handle trip logistics—booking hotels, rental cars, and flights, and keeping clean records of travel expenses and receipts.

Direct Communication & Dispatch: Act as a dependable right hand, readily available to take a quick phone call, triage urgent emails, and get time-sensitive tasks moving immediately.

Schedule & Calendar Oversight: Keep any daily appointments, client meetings or reminders organized so nothing slips through the cracks.

Administrative Follow-Through: Prepare concise reports, organize cloud files, follow up on outstanding action items, and maintain administrative order across the board.

What We Are Looking For

Mindset: A perfectionist approach to numbers and data entry. You double-check details and take pride in accuracy.

Technical Skills: Strong proficiency with Microsoft Excel, Outlook, Word, and cloud file management (SharePoint/OneDrive).

Availability & Communication: Highly responsive by phone and email during working hours (~30 hours/week), with the autonomy to prioritize tasks without micro-management.

Background: Ideal background includes business administration, accounting, or similar detail-heavy disciplines (mature students with daytime availability are welcome).

Equipment: Reliable home office setup, dedicated laptop/computer, and high-speed internet.

Work Arrangement & Flexibility

Remote Work

Work from home with high day-to-day flexibility.

Contract/Hours

Starting at ~30 hours/week on a contract basis, with potential to expand into full-time hours during our peak busy seasons.

Compensation

Competitive hourly rate / contract equivalent (based on experience)

Pay

$17.60-$28.54 per hour

30.0 per week

Experience:

• Administrative: 1 year (preferred)
