Executive Assistant (Remote) – South Africa Only

Viva is offering an exciting fully remote Executive Assistant opportunity for candidates based in South Africa.

This is not a traditional assistant role — you will act as a strategic partner to startup CEOs, helping them scale businesses, improve productivity, and make high-impact decisions.

If you are proactive, organised, and thrive in fast-paced environments, this role is designed for you.

What You Will Do

  • Support up to 3 startup executives
  • Manage calendars, emails, meetings, and travel
  • Handle administrative and operational tasks
  • Assist with internal projects and reporting
  • Improve workflows and business processes
  • Identify problems and offer solutions proactively
  • Help CEOs save time and scale faster

Requirements

  • 2+ years of work experience
  • Fluent English (C1 level)
  • Highly organised and detail-oriented
  • Proactive and solution-driven mindset
  • Tech-savvy (Google Workspace, Slack, Notion, AI tools)
  • Confident, independent, and responsible

What You Get

  • 100% Remote work (South Africa eligible)
  • Fixed schedule – no overtime, weekends off
  • Career growth, mentorship & structured development
  • Competitive salary with bonuses every 6 months
  • Global health insurance (medical, dental, mental health)
  • Paid time off (vacation, sick leave, family care days)
  • Monthly wellness budgets & learning stipends
  • Strong remote team culture

Why This Role is Different

This role is designed for people who want more than admin work. You will:

  • Work directly with CEOs
  • Influence business decisions
  • Join fast-growing global startups
  • Build a high-level executive career path
