About the Role
We are seeking a motivated and detail-oriented Projects Assistant to join our Operations Department. In this role, you will work closely with the Chief of Staff to support client-facing projects, ensuring they are executed efficiently and to the highest standards. This position is ideal for someone with strong organizational skills, a knack for process improvement, and a desire to grow within a dynamic and fast-paced environment.
As the Projects Assistant at VSNWKS, your day will start with a team huddle where you'll sync up with the Chief of Staff on the day's priorities. You might kick things off by reviewing the latest project timelines in Google Sheets, making sure everything is on track and identifying any potential bottlenecks. With your process maps in hand, you’ll streamline workflows, ensuring that every task flows smoothly from start to finish.
Mid-morning, you’ll jump on a client call with the Chief of Staff, taking detailed notes and ensuring that client expectations are clearly understood and documented. You’ll follow up by updating project management tools, assigning tasks, and sending out key action items.
After lunch, you’ll dive into some data analysis, using advanced Google Sheets formulas to generate reports that give our team insights into project progress and performance. You’ll collaborate with other team members, offering your input on how we can optimize our processes even further.
As the day winds down, you might put together a quick presentation or assist in drafting communications for an upcoming client meeting. Before logging off, you'll check in with the Chief of Staff to ensure all critical tasks are complete and prep for the next day's projects.
In this role, no two days are exactly the same, but each one will offer you the chance to grow, learn, and make a meaningful impact on our operations and client satisfaction.
