About the Role
The client runs her own app development studio and is currently a lean team of one. She's looking for a Personal & Executive Assistant to take routine scheduling, communication, and life-admin tasks off her plate — with the flexibility to shift further toward personal support later this year if she transitions into a corporate role. The right candidate is comfortable moving between business and personal tasks and doesn't need heavy hand-holding to figure out logistics. Core Responsibilities Scheduling & Communication
Manage calendar and scheduling across business and personal commitments
Light inbox support and email management (low volume — no heavy customer-facing inbox)
Occasionally liaise with third parties on Amy's behalf (text/call/WhatsApp) when given access
Travel & Events
Book and coordinate travel — flights, accommodation — for both business and personal trips
Handle restaurant bookings and event/appointment coordination
Personal Support
Book doctor's appointments, gym sessions, and other personal errands
Handle groceries and other day-to-day logistics as needed
Remind about and help source gifts for important dates
Ad Hoc / Research
Light research to help Amy stay on top of industry/market developments
Pull together options and information to support her decision-making
Social Media (Light Touch)
Surface-level support only — scheduling/posting content, basic captions, occasional DM replies
Not a core specialist requirement — no dedicated social media management expected
Not Required for This Role
Finance, bookkeeping, or invoicing
Vendor management or vendor research
Specialist/strategic social media management
Ideal Candidate
3–4+ years of experience as an EA/PA or similar
Comfortable supporting both business and personal tasks, and open to that balance shifting over time
Based in South Africa or the Philippines
Proficient with Google Workspace
Trustworthy, discreet, and comfortable with shared account access under an NDA
Self-sufficient — able to research and propose options rather than needing detailed instructions
