JOB OVERVIEW

Must overlap US Central business hours (Austin, Texas). Long-term role with room to grow as our startup scales.

ABOUT THE ROLE
We are a growing home care startup based in Austin, Texas, serving seniors and their families. We're looking for a proactive Virtual / Personal Assistant to be the right hand of our startup's founder and small leadership team. You'll wear several hats - social media, appointment setting, caregiver recruiting support, and whatever else a fast-moving startup needs - to keep everything running smoothly.

WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Social media: run our content calendar - edit short videos, write captions, and schedule posts to Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Facebook and ---------- ; manage our Google Business Profile and review requests.
- Appointment setting & outreach: make calls and emails to book meetings for our business development lead, build and research referral target lists (hospitals, senior facilities, doctors' offices, case managers), and keep the calendar full.
- Recruiting support: post and refresh job ads, source applicants, screen resumes against a checklist, send screening questions, and schedule interviews.
- CRM & follow-up: log calls and meetings, set follow-up reminders, and draft thank-you notes for approval.
- Content & design: create simple marketing graphics and flyers in Canva and draft blog posts / newsletters.
- Admin & whatever's needed: calendar and inbox management, document organization, research, and other tasks to support the founder and team as we grow.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
- Excellent written and spoken English and a clear, confident phone voice.
- 2+ years of virtual assistant, personal assistant, admin, appointment-setting, or sales-support experience.
- Comfortable with Google Workspace, a CRM, Canva, and social media schedulers.
- Fast, reliable internet and a quiet space for calls.
- Organized, detail-oriented, proactive, and dependable during US Central hours.
- Comfortable wearing multiple hats and taking initiative in a startup environment.

NICE TO HAVE
- Healthcare, home care, staffing, or recruiting support experience; video editing; light bookkeeping; basic SEO.

IMPORTANT - CONFIDENTIALITY
You will NOT handle any client medical or personal records - we keep all protected information in-house. A signed confidentiality agreement (NDA) is required.

HOW TO APPLY
Start your reply with the word "AUSTIN" so we know you read the full post (we only review applications that do this). Then include:
1. A short introduction about you.
2. Your relevant experience (appointment setting, recruiting support, social media - whichever fits).
3. A screenshot of your internet speed test.
4. Your available working hours in US Central time.
Bonus: attach a 1-minute voice recording introducing yourself.

We respond quickly to strong applicants. We look forward to meeting you!
