Who are we?

Ansh Malhotra is an award-winning entrepreneur who has founded multiple businesses.

Ansh is on a mission to help small businesses grow to new heights through world-class web and app design services.

Now, we need you – yes you – to help scale to new heights and continue to provide incredible support to entrepreneurs.

Tasks

What’s the gig?

We’re searching for an experienced assistant to execute day-to-day activities, administrative tasks (such as inbox and calendar management, wink wink), and special projects for Ansh.

This position touches every corner of Ansh’s life and business, which means the right person will have a passion for coming alongside Ansh and putting the infrastructure in place to bring his big vision into reality.

It’s a big role, and we need someone who has the ability to ramp up quickly when it comes to new information and learning new things. Therefore, we’re looking for someone with deep career ambitions as an assistant to the Ansh and someone who truly believes in the value of this role as their calling.

Projects for you might include:

• Managing Ansh’s inbox, calendar and phone calls
• Acting as the liaison between the CEO and his team and clients,
• Office/Business admin management incl. office phone call management, vendor management and more,
• Managing repetitive client tasks,
• Data admin tasks - incl. (but not limited to) data management on excel/Googler Sheets,
• Owning the logistics of important business (and sometimes personal) purchases,
• Picking out gifts for the Ansh’s wife,
• Being the point person for the employees, clients, and accountants,
• Coordinating travel arrangements.

Among many, many other things.

Over time, the goal is that you’ll become an extension of Ansh by having the ability to anticipate his needs, see around the corner, and remember things before he does. Because of this, the ability to build trust quickly is critical. We desire a high level of professionalism, confidentiality, discretion and judgement, in both written and verbal communication.

• Communicator. You have excellent written and verbal communication.
• Organiser. You have impeccable attention to detail, you look to improve processes and you anticipate every eventuality.
• Adaptable. You thrive when you need to find solutions fast and you work fast and efficiently to get the job done.

Why you?

As a minimum, you have:
