Executive Assistant to the CEO

Location: Remote (Philippines-based VAs only) Read this whole thing before you apply. If you skim it, you'll fail step one. Smartland manages 1,400+ rental homes and apartments. The CEO moves fast and decides faster. This role exists to make him faster still: to remove friction, anticipate the next three steps, and never let a ball drop. You are his memory, his logic check, and his second brain. This is not a calendar-and-coffee job. If that's what you're looking for, stop here. What you'll actually do: Run the CEO's day so he doesn't have to think about logistics: calendar, travel, prep, follow-through. Catch things before they become problems. We expect you to flag what we missed. Hold the full picture in your head: who owes what, what's due when, which thread is still open. Turn vague direction into a finished result without being walked through it. Build and maintain checklists for everything, because nothing falls through a good checklist. Who we're looking for: You think fast and you think clearly. Sloppy logic is a dealbreaker. Your memory is sharp. People are surprised by what you remember. You are relentlessly organized. You love checklists, genuinely, not as a line on a résumé. You're proactive. You'd rather ask forgiveness than wait for instructions on the obvious. You think strategically. You see why a task matters, not just what the task is. When the standard template doesn't fit, you build a better one. Do not apply if: You need detailed instructions to start. Y
