Support recurring administrative, business support, and executive-assistant tasks, including occasional phone calls when required. Use AI productivity tools and approved data-scraping methods to improve research efficiency and streamline workflows. Follow documented standard operating procedures, meet agreed deadlines, and escalate unclear property or ownership information rather than making assumptions. Deliver accurate, organized, and professional work in accordance with the agreed scope of services and independent contractor agreement. Requirements: Previous experience in executive assistance, administrative support, online research, or data management is required. Strong proficiency in Microsoft Excel and/or Google Sheets, including organizing, cleaning, and maintaining structured datasets.
