What we are looking for
We are a team of 8 (mix of part and full time). We are looking for someone who is able to take on research and admin tasks.
Example Research tasks:
There are 40 ecosystem vendors, here is a list of vendors, can you search LinkedIn for the person most likely to manage the Microsoft relationship, titles might include X Y and Z
There are 20 contact center providers certified for Teams, here is the list, we have email address for contacts at 18 of them, can you ask them if they
Have SOC2
Where is their GDPR policy
What is their home countty
What is the minimum number of seats they will see
We want do do a comparison of earbuds, based on the vendor product pages what variables for a table should we compare (weight, water proof, warrenty period etc.)
Example admin tasks:
Here is a URL with 50 speakers at an event, please put them into a CSV or airtable with title, role, linked-in url and the subject they are speaking on
Here is a dropbox of receipts, please put them into this form
We would align this person to someone in our team who can be a single point of focus to help them understand tasks and priorities.
We also use clickup extensively for task management and priorities.
Timezone is not super important, but it would be good to have some overlap with the UK.
Some of the core team work 9-3 so overlap within that window would be ideal.
Tasks would all be async work.
