About Great Assistant

Great Assistant connects talented virtual assistants with entrepreneurs and small business owners across the United States and Canada. We create strong, long term matches based on the client’s needs, the assistant’s skills, and how they work best together.

Finding the Right Match

Our thorough screening and vetting process helps us understand each candidate’s experience, strengths, work style, goals, and qualifications. It’s important to us that each match is right for both the assistant and the client and has the best chance of becoming a successful, lasting working relationship.

Our process includes application questions, assessments, interviews, and other screening steps. Each step helps us learn more about your skills and determine whether a position matches your experience, availability, and career goals.

What You Can Expect in a Role

When working with one of our clients, you’re likely to support a variety of responsibilities across the business. Depending on the position, this may include:

• Email and calendar management
• Client and team communication
• Project and task coordination
• Systems and process support
• Content and social media support
• Billing and administrative tasks
• Day to day business operations

In many roles, you’ll become a trusted part of the client’s team and help keep priorities organized and moving forward. Each position is different, so we encourage you to carefully review the full job posting before applying.

Review the Position Details

We believe in being transparent about each opportunity. Every job posting includes important details such as the employment type, pay rate, expected hours and schedule, benefits if available, required qualifications, and other information you’ll need to decide whether the role meets your needs.

Please review the full position details carefully before applying and only apply for opportunities that align with your experience, availability, and expectations.

Working With a Great Assistant Client

If you’re matched with a Great Assistant client, you’ll work directly for that client as either an employee or independent contractor, depending on the position details provided in the job posting. While Great Assistant isn’t your employer, our team will continue to be available as a resource and support system throughout your placement.

Support After You’re Hired

Once hired by a Great Assistant client, you’ll have access to training, resources, and ongoing support through the Great Assistant Program at no cost. Our goal is to help you begin your new role with a clear understanding of what to expect and the support you need to succeed.
