Looking for Filipino (Philippines-based) candidates
Job Role: Virtual Assistant (AI-Enabled)
Compensation range: $2,000 AUD - $2,500 AUD / Monthly
Engagement type: Independent Contractor Agreement
Work Schedule: This role is expected to align with the AU business hours (approx. 9 AM - 5 PM, Monday to Friday) for collaboration, but as a contractor, you’ll have flexibility in how you manage your time.
Who We Are: At Hunt St, we help Australian companies hire top remote talent in the Philippines. For this role, you will be engaged directly by the client as an independent contractor. We are not an outsourcing agency. All of our roles are 100% remote, so you'll be able to work from home.
Who The Client Is: The client is a director of a portfolio of Australia-based music and hospitality businesses spanning live events, nightlife venues, and music media. The portfolio includes S.A.S.H Events, Carousel Nightclub, Stanley's, Mixmag Australia/NZ, and Sessions Services.
Role Overview: This is a broad, hands-on Virtual Assistant role for someone technically savvy who can support the director directly and help the wider portfolio run smoothly. Part of the role is classic executive support (calendar, inbox, meetings, day-to-day tasks alongside with the Director). Part of it is operations support across the venues and brands (handling enquiries, social media messages, quotes, and research). And a meaningful portion is focused on AI: setting up AI tools and automations across the businesses to take repetitive, manual work off the team's plate. We are looking for someone sharp, organized, and genuinely comfortable adopting new tools.
Key Responsibilities:
Executive Support (Director Assistance)
- Act as the right-hand support to Director Kerry Wallace.
- Manage, organize, and optimize calendars, meetings, and email correspondence.
- Collaborate closely on ad-hoc projects and daily executive tasks.

- Carousel Nightclub: Manage function inquiries and general operations for this premier venue (currently expanding from 2 to 4 nights a week in October).
- Stanley’s Cocktail Bar: Assist with functions, operations, and quotes for a bustling 4-day-a-week venue.
- Mixmag Australia/NZ: Assist the editorial and ticketing teams for this leading electronic music media platform, including managing social media inquiries.
- Session Services: Conduct market research and provide ad-hoc operational support for this specialized ticketing platform.
