Perfect role for a mid professional looking to grow their Offshore Staffing career in Cambridge.
Offshore staffing has quietly become one of the most resilient ways for startups to scale without the overheads of traditional hiring.
This business, a fast-moving startup built on a flat structure and a genuine entrepreneurial streak, needs an Executive Virtual Assistant who can keep pace with founders who move quickly and change direction when the data tells them to.
It's a role that sits close to the centre of things, not on the edge of them.
Here's what you'll be doing: Manage the founder's calendar, inbox and travel across multiple time zones, prioritising what actually matters Prepare board packs, meeting notes and follow-up actions so nothing slips between sessions Coordinate with offshore teams and external vendors to keep projects moving on schedule Handle confidential documents and communications with discretion, every time Own small projects end to end, from research to a finished recommendation Build and refine the admin systems a growing startup needs but hasn't had time to set up properly Here are the skills you'll need: Solid experience as a Virtual Assistant, EA or similar, ideally within offshore staffing or a remote-first business Strong written English and a sharp eye for detail.
Typos matter when you're representing someone else's name Comfortable with scheduling tools, cloud documents and the usual remote collaboration stack Able to work independently and make sensible calls without waiting for permission on every small thing Calm under pressure.
Founders change plans.
You adapt Genuine discretion.
You'll see things before most of the company does Key perks and benefits: Salary of £17,000 to £25,500, depending on experience Fully remote, so you can build this Executive Virtual Assistant role around your own life rather than a commute Equity in a startup that's still early enough for it to mean something Flexible hours and a genuine learning and development budget A flat structure where your ideas reach decision-makers directly, not through five layers of management Why pursue a career in Offshore Staffing?
Offshore staffing is growing fast as businesses realise they don't need a large local headcount to run efficiently.
An Executive Virtual Assistant who proves themselves well in this space tends to move quickly into operations, chief of staff, or business management roles, because the skill set transfers.
Cambridge has a strong cluster of startups and scale-ups hungry for exactly this kind of support, which makes it a smart base for anyone serious about the field.
