Virtual Assistant
Nairobi, Kenya · Remote · FULL TIME
About the role
Mid-level Virtual Assistant talent pool in Nairobi, focused on a support desk another assistant can cover.
Profiles in this pool are matched to Virtual Assistant assignments with a hiring base in Nairobi, Kenya. The emphasis is a support desk another assistant can cover. Day to day that means writing the routines, storing passwords only in the approved place, and leaving a cover note.
Responsibilities
- Brief the assistant who covers you on the routine guide and state how you checked a weekly task that is not listed.
- Accept the handed-over password practice only when the note covering a password stored in a chat is attached.
- Turn a vague request into one concrete contact list before work starts, and list the who to ask when you are away.
- Protect time every week for the cover note so you are not still dealing with the what not to send in your name in the last hour.
- Leave the folder map so the next person knows what to watch regarding the where the live file sits.
- Close open questions on the handover call instead of parking them, and record the decision on the open tasks.
Requirements
- Roughly 2 to 5 years of making remote admin support coverable that matches this virtual assistant profile, or a shorter record with the same kind of finished work.
- Practical skill with shared folders and written routines in virtual assistant work, not a certificate alone.
- Able to explain where passwords must not be stored to a colleague who was not in the room.
- Careful with access details kept in a personal chat; this is checked in review of virtual assistant work.
- For the virtual assistant brief in Nairobi, use the working language of that assignment in Kenya.
Nice to have
- Written routines is useful on virtual assistant assignments in Nairobi, and it is not required.
- People who have already done cover notes can start this virtual assistant brief with less coaching.
- Folder maps is a plus for virtual assistant work based in Nairobi.
