Operations Coordinator / Personal Assistant (Hybrid)

I Need Another Capable Human in My Corner

Westland, MI | Hybrid | 10–20 hours/week to start
$20–$25/hour + optional commission-based sales opportunity

I'm looking for someone who wants extra work, extra responsibility, and the opportunity to grow with the role.

This isn't a traditional executive assistant job.

I'm running multiple businesses and projects while managing the normal responsibilities of life. I need another capable person in the operation—someone organized enough to keep things moving and independent enough to take ownership.

HOW WE'LL WORK

The way I think about the operation is pretty simple:

Prioritize. Plan. Plant. Perform.

Prioritize — Figure out what actually matters.

Plan — Decide what needs to happen, when, and who's responsible.

Plant — Protect my bandwidth so I can stay planted on what I'm supposed to be doing.

Perform — Execute, follow through, and keep things moving.

That's the kind of person I'm looking for, too.

THE WEEKLY ANCHOR

At the beginning of each week, we'll spend 3–5 hours together in person reviewing the operation and making the plan.

We'll look at:

• Inventory and products coming in
• Products being flipped, rented, or sold
• Business and personal money
• The calendar and upcoming appointments
• Medications, shopping, and household needs
• Loose ends from the previous week
• Business and personal priorities

Then we'll figure out what actually needs to happen.

We'll organize my priorities, the business priorities, and your priorities for the week.

The goal is to leave with a clear plan.

THE DAILY RHYTHM

Morning check-in — approximately 15–20 minutes

• What's happening today?
• What changed?
• What matters most?

Evening check-in — approximately 15–20 minutes

• What got done?
• What's still hanging?
• What needs follow-up?
• What's the plan for tomorrow?

Between check-ins, there will be communication and follow-up as needed.

That might include spreadsheets, scheduling, research, messages, tracking things down, following up with people, or catching something before it falls through the cracks.

The role will initially be primarily remote outside of the weekly in-person planning session.

THE SALES OPPORTUNITY

I also have an optional commission-based social-media sales opportunity that can be part of the same role.

The operations work is paid hourly. The sales work is paid on commission.

If you're good with people, comfortable communicating online, and interested in sales, there's an opportunity to earn more as you take on more.

WHO I'M LOOKING FOR

I'm not necessarily looking for the stereotypical corporate executive assistant.

You might be:

• A nanny looking for another client or additional work
• A mom who has developed incredible organizational skills because somebody had to keep everything moving
• A stage manager who can coordinate twenty things at once
• A bartender or hospitality professional looking for a different direction
• A freelancer, office manager, project coordinator, or entrepreneur
• Or simply the person everyone calls when something needs to get figured out

Your previous job title matters less to me than how you operate.

Can you organize things?

Can you think ahead?

Can you follow through?

Can you take ownership?

When you finish something, are you the kind of person who asks, “What's next?”

Because I have plenty of next.

THE DETAILS

• Starting pay: $20–$25 hour (based on experience)
• Starting schedule: Approximately 10–20 hours per week
• Additional opportunity: Social-media sales
• Growth potential: Additional hours and responsibility as the operation grows
• Location: Hybrid, with regular in-person work in Westland

We'll start with a paid trial period.

I'm looking for someone who wants to build a working relationship, learn the operation, and take on more as there's more to take on.

WHAT I ACTUALLY CARE ABOUT

I don't care if your previous title was “Executive Assistant.”

I care whether you notice, think, organize, communicate, follow through, and take ownership.

If I tell you something once and you build a system around it so we don't have to keep having the same conversation?

That's gold.

If you see a problem and solve it before I know about it?

Even better.

HOW TO APPLY

Please send your resume and answer these three questions in your application:

1. Tell me about a time you walked into a messy situation, turned on beast mode and nobody else knew the chaos existed.

2. What experience...work or life...has made you good at managing multiple moving pieces at once?

3. Are you interested in the optional commission-based social-media sales side of this role? Why or why not?

I'm looking for a capable person who wants more.

Not someone to sit around and wait for instructions.

Someone who wants to get in, figure things out, and help build something.

Pay: $20.00 - $25.00 per hour

Benefits:

• Employee discount
• Flexible schedule
• Professional development assistance
• Referral program
