Executive Assistant to the CEO

Location: Remote (Philippines-based VAs only)

Read this whole thing before you apply. If you skim it, you'll fail step one.

Smartland manages 1,400+ rental homes and apartments. The CEO moves fast and decides faster. This role exists to make him faster still: to remove friction, anticipate the next three steps, and never let a ball drop. You are his memory, his logic check, and his second brain.

This is not a calendar-and-coffee job. If that's what you're looking for, stop here.
What you'll actually do:

- Run the CEO's day so he doesn't have to think about logistics: calendar, travel, prep, follow-through.

-

Catch things before they become problems.

- We expect you to flag what we missed.Hold the full picture in your head: who owes what, what's due when, which thread is still open.

- Turn vague direction into a finished result without being walked through it.

- Build and maintain checklists for everything, because nothing falls through a good checklist.

Who we're looking for:

- You think fast and you think clearly. Sloppy logic is a dealbreaker.

- Your memory is sharp. People are surprised by what you remember.

- You are relentlessly organized. You love checklists, genuinely, not as a line on a résumé.

- You're proactive. You'd rather ask forgiveness than wait for instructions on the obvious.

- You think strategically. You see why a task matters, not just what the task is.

- When the standard template doesn't fit, you build a better one.

Do not apply if:

- You need detailed instructions to start.

- You've ever said "that's not my job."

- You drop tasks and blame the volume.

- You're hoping to wing it. We will find out by week one.

Salary: $8.50/HR
