**4YEARS+ EXPERIENCE REQUIRED. DO NOT APPLY IF NOT**
We're looking for an experienced, all-rounder Virtual Assistant to support the day-to-day operations of two growing online businesses: PreFilters, an Australian water filtration retailer, and Recovadapt, a naturopathic supplement brand. This is a hands-on, part-time remote role (potentially moving to full-time) covering website maintenance, order, affiliate and subscription management, shipping logistics, and general operational support across both stores.
You'll primarily be working across our WordPress/WooCommerce site, so you must already be confident and experienced on that platform — this isn't a role to learn it on the job. You must also know how to use Shopify, as we may be moving away from WordPress/WooCommerce (and Stripe) to Shopify in the near future.
This role suits someone who works independently and proactively and takes initiative. We're after someone who is excited about the work, is a self-starter who takes ownership, responsibility and initiative of tasks, gets things done quickly and accurately, and doesn't need close supervision or repeated follow-up. We're not looking for someone who needs constant hand-holding — we want someone who spots gaps or inefficiencies in how we operate and brings us solutions, not just someone who waits to be told what to do (this is important!!!)
