I need some help. I am always hiring for different roles across our company's functional areas: writing, design, web development, marketing, technology, and sales. However, I keep putting off hiring someone to assist me directly in running the company. We have a team of 17 and a robust client base. But now I need some help. I need an assistant, but not your "typical" assistant. Yes, the person would help manage my inbox, calendar, and task prioritization. However, they would also learn about the business and everything from digital marketing to capital markets to the latest technologies. I would describe it as an "apprenticeship" and a unique experience in the inner workings of a growing company in the fast-paced worlds of investment banking, capital markets, digital marketing, and technology. This is an ideal opportunity for someone just starting their career or looking to make a pivot and needs to upskill in these areas. A few required traits: - Smart. You can't teach intelligence. - Care about your work. Take pride in what you do and recognize that the output of your work reflects your own personal brand and reputation. - Tech-savvy. I will teach the business but not how to use a computer, a CRM, social media, online research tools, and other tasks that would be considered a "baseline" for anyone looking to work in today's high-tech world. - Obsessed with details and hyper-organized. "The devil is in the details," and you can't miss a task, an email reply, a meeting, etc. I know everyone puts on their resume the cliche "attention to detail," but I am a perfectionist and will catch the missing commas in an email. A bonus if you already have some experience in the capital markets and/or digital marketing industries. Other details: - 20 to 30 hours per week. More possible. - Hybrid role. Based on the Upper East Side, Manhattan. - $20 to $30 per hour, based on experience. - Must live and work during Eastern Time zone.
