What should I look for in a remote executive assistant?
Look for evidence of prioritisation, clear writing, reliable follow-through and careful handling of sensitive information. Ask for relevant examples and assess how the applicant would work with your communication style.
How is an executive assistant different from an administrative assistant?
An executive assistant focuses on a leader’s priorities and schedule. An administrative assistant usually supports repeatable processes across a team. Some roles overlap, so list the actual duties in your job ad.
How do I onboard an executive assistant remotely?
Start with a calendar walkthrough, communication preferences and a list of recurring commitments. Define approval boundaries, introduce key contacts and give access only to the systems needed for the role.
Can I recruit an executive assistant for part-time support?
Yes. Describe the weekly hours and the response windows you need. Part-time support works best when expectations about urgent requests and availability are clear before work begins.
