POSITION FILLED



Part time Executive Assistant ? home based


Hi all

I run a rapidly growing IT business (www.shapeblue.com) We have offices in Covent Garden, India, US, Brasil and South Africa. However, I predominantly work from home (and live in ED, hence putting this advert here). I often meet with members of my team locally, so having somebody close-by seems to make sense.

I found my current assistant through the EDF and it has worked very well. However, she is about to go off on maternity leave (10 April ? early September) , so I would like to take some else on in this role for that period.


I need somebody to help me with the business administration. It will be part time (maybe 10-20 hours per week initially, but completely flexible). You would be self-employed

I need somebody who is able to work from home (i.e. with a PC at home) and is used to managing their own time in order to achieve the requirements of the job. Hours are completely flexible.

The other reason that I?m advertising here, is that I think this role would suit somebody who is having a career break, but wants to do a little, flexible, part time work.

The role is to pick up anything that I cant cope with. I am a hair-brained entrepreneur, who needs somebody to support me and make sure that everything (from an admin perspective) works well . Part of that is admin, part PA, part being involved in some very exciting projects (such as organising conferences,etc)


Below is a list of attributes, skills & duties that I would *like* people to have. I understand that it may be difficult to find somebody with all of these??

? Invoicing - experience of creating invoices and managing payments (preferably in an international, multi-currency environment)

? Collating data for monthly management reports

? Banking (payments, etc)

? Handling of timesheets and customer reporting

Basic website editing


? Diary management ? booking meetings with clients, arranging meeting rooms at offices

? Events: liaising with conference organisers, designers, etc

? Proof reading of documents (such as sales proposals)

? Booking travel ? flights, hotels, car hire, restaurants, checking in online, seat upgrades etc.

? Familiar with a wide range of software tools ? including MS office, maybe accounting systems and other tools such as project management tools

? Experience in an IT company useful (no technical experience required)

? Experience in events organisation

? Any commercial or contractual experience a benefit


As I say, its quite a disparate set of duties ? and it may change. So most of all, I need somebody with initiative & experience in a dynamic commercial environment that I know is going to be a safe pair of hands to take on various duties from me

If you are interested or have any questions, please DO NOT PM me. Please email your CV to [email protected]

If anyone does have any questions - I'm the current Exec Asst who is about to go on maternity leave so I'm happy to answer any queries. This is a great opportunity to work part-time from home, it's a very flexible role working with for a lovely team!

    • Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening.  When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next.  Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden.  We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space.  Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together.  I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.
    • Having a BBQ (fingers crossed) in 2 weeks and need a small BBQ for veggie bits and any spare benches or garden tables and chairs to borrow to add to mine. Any going? Thanks in advance...
    • Oh dear, hope you are OK, I've had it three times and it was worse each time, but not a patch on many of those who got it before they vac' role out. Not commenting on the discussion as I got confused many days ago beyond the reminder that Corbyn would not compromise and the harm that could lead to him, the party and regards Brexit pre and post referendum the country.  Starmer goes too far the other way at times.  
    • I am  ill in bed with Covid. It's not that I "can't be bothered" to read things. I am feeling crap and don't have the mental  energy at the moment. I am not "brushing stuff aside and pleading ignorance." I am truthfully saying when I don't presently know enough about something to be able to comment. I have always been very careful to try to  differentiate between fact and opinion in both  my posts and other people's, and I am not clear what your point is. And I am certainly not trying to wind anybody up. This is a forum. If you don't want to respond to my posts, that's up to you. I'm not sure why you feel the need to announce it.
