Virtual assistant
Description
Virtual assistants provide remote administrative support to clients and businesses. The work involves handling administrative tasks remotely — scheduling, email, research, data entry, and more — supporting clients flexibly, managing varied work, and providing reliable support without being on site.
They work independently or for VA services, supporting clients remotely. The role suits organised, self-directed, versatile people who can handle varied administrative work remotely, manage their own time and multiple clients, communicate well at a distance, deliver reliably, and combine administrative competence with the independence and flexibility that remote support work requires.
