Operations-Focused Virtual Assistant (UK-Based)

1. Overview

We are building a fast-growing UK-based community-driven business and are looking for a highly proactive, operations-focused Virtual Assistant to work directly with the founder.

This freelance role will begin at 5 hours per week, with a clear pathway to increase this as the business scales.

Work includes entering data onto our CMS system (experience with Webflow or similar would be very useful) and helping our team with recruitment and venue sourcing across the UK

You must be UK-based.

2. The Requirements (Initial Phase)

You will support the operational build-out of the business, including:

- Research & Outreach
- Identifying and shortlisting suitable venue locations in target cities
- Researching potential freelance team members
- Conducting structured outreach via email and phone
- Organising responses in clear tracking systems
- Process & Systems Support
- Turning rough ideas or voice notes into structured SOPs
- Creating onboarding documents and checklists
- Building simple but scalable operational systems
- CMS management

3. Who This Role Is For

You are:
- Based in the UK
- Highly organised and structured
- Clear and confident in written and spoken communication
- Comfortable speaking to venues, suppliers or contractors
- Proactive and solutions-oriented
- Tech-comfortable (Google Workspace essential; Webflow/Airtable experience a bonus)
- Looking for a long-term opportunity with growth

You might currently be:

- A VA
- An operations or events assistant
- A studio, hospitality or community coordinator
- Someone capable of far more than your current role allows

What This Is Not
- Not passive task execution
- Not data entry
- Not a “wait to be told what to do” kind of role

We are looking for someone who naturally takes ownership and thinks ahead.

Growth Opportunity

This role is intentionally designed to grow. As the business scales nationally:

- Hours will increase
- Responsibility will increase
- Leadership scope will increase
