Job Description
Personal Assistant — Independent Contractor
Compozure | New York City | Hybrid Pay: $25–$30 per hour
About the Opportunity
Compozure connects busy professionals and families with skilled experts who provide thoughtful personal, administrative, and lifestyle support.
We’re seeking organized, resourceful Personal Assistants who take initiative, communicate proactively, and follow through. This is not simply a task-taking role. Successful assistants notice what needs attention, anticipate practical needs, resolve problems within their authority, and keep clients informed without requiring constant reminders.
Assignments combine remote administrative work with in-person client support. This is not a fully remote opportunity. Hours vary based on client needs, accepted assignments, and your availability; no minimum weekly hours are guaranteed.
Responsibilities
- Manage calendars, appointments, reservations, and scheduling changes.
- Coordinate correspondence, follow-ups, documents, and outstanding tasks.
- Research options and coordinate travel, vendors, service appointments, and personal projects as needed.
- Assist with errands, purchases, deliveries, groceries, and other agreed-upon personal or household logistics.
- Organize information and use practical systems to track priorities, deadlines, and commitments.
- Anticipate needs, identify potential problems, and suggest useful solutions.
- Handle private information, access to clients’ homes, and personal belongings with discretion.
- Work independently while respecting each client’s preferences, boundaries, and agreed scope.
Communication & Professional Standards
*Proactive communication is essential.* We expect assistants to:
- Confirm requests, priorities, deadlines, and arrangements.
- Provide timely updates and close the loop when work is completed.
- Communicate delays, scheduling conflicts, obstacles, or mistakes promptly—not after a deadline has passed.
- Ask clear questions when instructions, priorities, or boundaries are uncertain.
- Exercise initiative without making unauthorized purchases, commitments, or decisions.
- Be punctual, dependable, respectful, and accountable for their work.
Qualifications
- Relevant experience in personal assistance, executive support, administration, household coordination, client service, or comparable work.
- Demonstrated organization, practical problem-solving, sound judgment, and follow-through.
- Clear, professional written and verbal communication.
- Comfort using digital calendars, email, documents, spreadsheets, and productivity tools such as Google Workspace or Microsoft Office.
- Ability to manage competing priorities independently and adapt to different clients.
- Availability for in-person assignments within your agreed service area.
- Strong references from people who have directly observed your work.
What Compozure Offers
- Flexible scheduling based on your availability and accepted assignments.
- Opportunities to develop recurring client relationships.
- Discounts on Compozure services.
- Work that values resourcefulness, professional judgment, and thoughtful client support.
How to Apply
Please apply through Indeed and include
- Your résumé.
- A brief, tailored cover letter explaining your interest and describing a specific time you anticipated a need, independently solved a problem, or improved how something worked.
- Three references, including at least two professional references. Include each person’s name, relationship to you, and contact information, with their permission.
Professional references may include former clients, supervisors, or colleagues who can speak directly to your reliability, judgment, communication, and quality of work. Satisfactory references are required to move forward.
Please also describe your availability and the areas you can regularly travel to for client assignments.
