🌎 Only open to candidates in South Africa
Be More Than an Assistant. Be a Game Changer.
At Viva, we’re not just hiring. We’re on a mission to create meaningful career opportunities in Latin America with a focus on your growth, impact, and well-being.
As an Executive Assistant (EA), you won’t just manage calendars and emails. You'll be the right hand, problem-solver and strategic partner to startup executives. From operations to decision-making, you’ll take ownership, lead initiatives, and help CEOs move faster.
If you love challenges, thrive in fast-paced environments, and want to make a real impact, this is the perfect role for you.
What You’ll Do
Your job is to help CEOs at fast-growing startups be more productive, more efficient, and better equipped to scale. You’ll do that by:
Being a Strategic Partner – Support up to 3 executives. Anticipate needs, solve problems, and keep them focused on what matters most.
Administrative Support – Manage calendars, emails, meetings, expenses, travel, and team engagement to keep everything running smoothly.
Operational Support – Support internal projects, reporting, process improvements, and workflow optimization.
Use Your Voice & Take Initiative – Speak up, offer solutions, and spot problems before they surface.
Drive Business Impact – Every task you complete and every idea you share helps executives save time, clear roadblocks, and grow their companies.
Who We’re Looking For
2+ years of work experience
Fluent in English (C1 level) – you’re clear, confident, and fast-paced
Proactive & Solution-Oriented – you anticipate needs and take action without waiting
Highly Organized & Detail-Oriented – structure and accuracy are your default
Tech-Savvy & Adaptable – Comfortable with Google Workspace, Slack, Notion, AI tools and more
Confident & Bold – you take ownership, speak up, and make things happen
