Job Description

Looking for Philippines-based candidates


Job Role: Executive Assistant to Founder


Compensation range: $1,500 AUD - $1,800 AUD / Monthly


Engagement type: Independent Contractor Agreement


Work Schedule: This role is expected to align with the AU business hours (approx. 9 AM - 5 PM, Monday to Friday) for collaboration, but as a contractor, youll have flexibility in how you manage your time.

Who We Are: At Hunt St, we help Australian companies hire top remote talent in the Philippines. For this role, you will be engaged directly by the client as an independent contractor. We are not an outsourcing agency. All of our roles are 100% remote so youll be able to work from home.

Who The Client Is:

Our client is a dynamic and forward-thinking entrepreneur managing a diverse portfolio of ventures across luxury retail, real estate development, and strategic investments.

Role Overview:

This is not a standard admin VA role. This is a high-trust, founder-facing Executive Assistant role for a fast-moving business owner operating across jewelry, property, and other ventures. The right candidate must be highly organised, proactive, calm under pressure, excellent with follow-up, and able to create structure from a high-volume, fast-changing workflow. This person will help manage execution, communication, reminders, priorities, and day-to-day coordination across both business and selected personal matters.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Manage calendar, meetings, reminders, and scheduling
  • Manage inboxes, flag priorities, and draft replies
  • Track tasks, follow-ups, deadlines, and loose ends without needing repeated reminders
  • Convert rough voice notes, WhatsApp messages, and unstructured instructions into clean action lists and next steps
  • Coordinate with staff, suppliers, service providers, and external contacts
  • Prepare daily and weekly summaries of what is pending, completed, urgent, and blocked
  • Help organise business and personal admin
  • Assist with travel planning, appointments, bookings, and coordination where required
  • Prepare clean reports, trackers, and dashboards
  • Chase people and keep matters moving
  • Support the founder in maintaining structure, accountability, and execution consistency
  • Use AI tools intelligently to improve speed, organisation, drafting, summaries, and productivity


Requirements


Required Skills and Qualifications:

  • Proven experience as an Executive Assistant or supporting a founder/senior executive
  • Excellent written and spoken English
  • Strong organizational skills, initiative, and attention to detail
  • Ability to work with a fast-paced, unstructured environment
  • Strong reasoning, judgement, and problem-solving ability
  • Comfortable with legal-style documents and structured communication
  • Proficient in using AI tools in a strategic and thoughtful way
  • Reliable remote setup with strong internet and backup

Nice to Have

  • Experience supporting multiple businesses
  • CRM, sales/admin coordination, or process-building experience
  • Background in high-end, premium, or service-oriented environments
  • Experience handling confidential or sensitive matters


What Success Looks Like

  • The founder becomes more organized, efficient, and less reactive
  • Follow-ups are consistently managed and nothing falls through the cracks
  • Communication is clear, structured, and outcome-driven
  • The assistant operates as a proactive force multiplier, not a passive support


Work Arrangement & Expectations:

This is a remote role that will be set up as an independent contractor engagement.

To ensure alignment and transparency, successful candidates will be expected to:

  • Disclose any existing ongoing roles or client work
  • Reflect this engagement on their LinkedIn profile (clearly marked as "Independent Contractor")
