Marketing & Operations Assistant NEEDED

 

[5 hours per week to start with, with the intention to scale up to full time in 4 - 6 months]

Busy business owner, board member and media contributor is looking for a Marketing & Operations Assistant.

I would love to find a detail-oriented assistant who loves social media, podcasting, organisation, enjoys customer service, as well as generally helping out with whatever is needed.

I need you to help me manage my calendar, social media and long form content, as well as customer logistics, and bring your own genius to this role. How can you help make my life easier, protect my time, and grow the Tech for Non-Techies audience?

To begin with, this position is for 5 hours per week, with the intention to scale up.

This position will also require flexibility including working some occasional evenings and weekends. We run several live events per year that may require your in-person assistance.

Responsibilities

Media:

  •  Cutting long form YouTube videos into shorts / reels for social media
