About This Role
EliteDesk India is hiring Virtual Executive Assistants for senior professionals and C-suite executives at Indian and global companies. This is a remote, full-time role and we particularly encourage women candidates who are returning to the workforce after a career break, recent graduates with strong communication skills, and working professionals seeking a home-based executive support role. The work requires discretion, excellent organizational skills, and professional English communication.
Role Context
EliteDesk's Executive Assistant team supports founders, CEOs, VPs, and senior directors with their daily administrative and operational needs. Unlike a general VA role, this position requires anticipating needs before they are communicated — if a CEO has three meetings scheduled on a travel day, you proactively reschedule, book the cab, and confirm the calendar without being asked. Clients expect near-instant response on WhatsApp or email during working hours. Most EliteDesk EAs manage one high-priority client at a time, ensuring deep familiarity with their preferences and workflow.
Key Responsibilities
- Manage the executive's calendar — schedule, confirm, reschedule, and protect time blocks proactively
- Handle confidential email correspondence on behalf of the executive using their tone and voice
- Plan and book domestic and international travel — flights, hotels, visa requirements, itineraries
- Prepare agendas, board decks, and meeting minutes to a professional standard
- Coordinate with internal and external stakeholders for approvals, information, and deliverables
- Track personal and professional commitments — birthdays, renewals, deadlines — and send timely reminders
- Handle expense reports and invoice tracking on behalf of the executive
Requirements
- Any graduation — MBA or executive secretarial certification is an advantage
- 1+ year of relevant experience preferred; exceptional freshers also considered
- Exceptional written and spoken English — executive-level tone required
- High discretion and confidentiality — you will handle sensitive business information
- Proficiency in Google Workspace, MS Office, and communication tools (Slack, WhatsApp Business)
- Reliable laptop with Windows or Mac, and stable broadband
- Availability during client's core working hours — typically 9 AM – 7 PM IST with occasional after-hours on priority tasks
