JOB OVERVIEW

I'm a founder in Vancouver, Canada running an AI services agency, a consulting firm, and projects in music and entertainment. I'm hiring one person to run my day so I can focus on building. Not a task VA. A real EA who takes ownership.

RATE: $9 to $15 USD/hr depending on experience. 40 hrs/wk, long term, growth into an ops role. At least 6 hrs/day overlap with Pacific time required.

WITHIN 90 DAYS YOU WILL FULLY OWN:
- My inbox. You triage everything, answer what you can yourself, and bring me only what truly needs me
- My calendar. Nobody books me directly, including me. You schedule everything and protect my focus time
- Business admin across my companies: client forms, payment links, follow-ups, task board, meeting notes and action items
- Personal logistics. Travel, appointments, reservations, orders, event coordination. If it can be booked online, you handle it

We run on the Buy Back Your Time model: one weekly sync where I hand things off, playbooks for everything recurring, and increasing ownership as trust builds. If you know the book, say so in your application.

YOU NEED:
- 3+ years as an EA for a founder, executive, or business owner (not general VA work)
- You've juggled multiple businesses or brands for one principal before
- Excellent English, written and on calls. You'll speak to clients and partners
- Ruthlessly organized, proactive, discreet. You chase people without being asked and you keep confidences
- Google Workspace fluency. CRM experience a plus

HOW TO APPLY: start your application with the word ANCHOR, then tell me about a principal you supported, what you owned by the end, and one thing you took off their plate that they never touched again. Applications that don't start with the word are not read. Shortlisted applicants get a paid test task ($30), then a video call, then a 2-week paid trial.
