Professional Virtual Administrative Assistant
I have a strong background in administration, data entry and management, am dedicated to exceptional customer service and maintain a professional appearance.
I've been self-employed for the last five years as a Virtual Administrative Assistant, satisfying clients' needs for dedicated and accurate administration services while circumventing the expense of on-site administrative staff. I've never met a majority of my clients and have only spoken to a few on the phone, relying primarily on email and shared task management systems to keep the virtual office streamlined. I work very well on my own, take pride in completing tasks without error and excel at cultivating client relationships based on respect, dependability and honesty.
I have 20+ years of experience in computers, technology and information management, and expertise with all of Microsoft's business programs, have worked with and customized several CRM systems. I quickly adapt to using a company's personalized information technology systems and easily retain instruction; which eliminates a lot of the 'learning curve' period many new employees experience. My attention to detail, dedication to accuracy and ability to follow and create reliable processes all minimize mistakes that cost employers’ time and money. While I enjoy linear and information based work, I also have cultivated the soft skills needed in order to work effectively with others to produce quality results.
Prior to entering the field of administration, I bar-tended for 10 years, enjoying interacting with every sort of person imaginable. It takes a great deal of skill to manage an environment where the social landscape is in a constant state of change). The patience and pragmatism learned thru bar-tending serves me well in listening, identifying and solving problems, negotiation and customer satisfaction.
Work Terms
I'm on United States MST and would prefer to work between the hours of 8am to 7pm, however, I'm quite flexable and am happy to accommodate hours outside of this range.
Since I'm accustomed to the virtual workspace, I am happy to communicare with employers in any way they find the most effectve.
