Virtual Assistant

This role is well suited to someone who is highly organised, takes initiative, and can juggle a varied workload without dropping a ball. You'll provide day-to-day support across a range of tasks — from inbox management and diary coordination to research and admin — freeing up your client to focus on the bigger picture.

• Conduct research and compile summaries or reports as requested
• Prepare documents, presentations, and spreadsheets
• Handle travel arrangements and logistics where needed
• Support with ad hoc tasks and projects as the role evolves

What You'll Need

• Experience working as a VA, PA, or in a similar administrative support role
• Familiarity with tools such as Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, or project management platforms
• Excellent written communication skills in English
• A proactive attitude and ability to work independently with minimal supervision
• Reliable internet and a professional home working environment

What's on Offer

• R12,000–R16,000 per month (based on experience)
• 100% remote — work from anywhere in South Africa
• Working hours: 11:00–19:00 SAST (09:00–17:00 UK time)
• Long-term, stable role with an established UK client
• Supportive onboarding through the Remote World team
