Job Description - Virtual Assistant (Household and Business Management)
Description
We are looking for a Virtual Assistant to support a Hong Kong-based family with household management, personal administration, and light business tasks. This role is primarily family-facing (approximately 80%) with some business support (approximately 20%). You will be the operational backbone for a busy household with two kids, handling everything from school applications and travel bookings to utility payments and government document coordination.
This is not a role for someone who needs hand-holding or a defined playbook. You will be expected to figure things out, move quickly, and take ownership of tasks from start to finish without being followed up. If you are resourceful, highly organized, and thrive in an environment where no two days look exactly the same, this role is a strong fit.

Government and Document Coordination
Support tax filing preparation including document gathering, form preparation, and coordination with the family's accountant or tax advisor
Assist with government document filings, renewals, and administrative requirements
Track deadlines for filings, renewals, and compliance requirements and flag them proactively
Business Support
Assist with business-related research, correspondence, and administrative tasks as needed
Support scheduling, inbox management, and other operational needs for the family's business activities
Handle ad hoc tasks and projects as they arise with speed and reliability
What You Bring
Proven experience in household management, personal assistant, or executive assistant roles supporting a family or high-demand individual
Highly resourceful with a strong ability to figure things out independently and find solutions without being directed
Excellent organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities, deadlines, and platforms simultaneously
Strong written and verbal English communication skills
Comfortable handling sensitive personal, financial, and government-related information with complete discretion
Tech-savvy and comfortable learning new tools, platforms, and workflows quickly
Proactive, reliable, and responsive with a strong sense of ownership and follow-through
Available during Hong Kong business hours on a full-time basis
Nice to Have
Experience supporting families based in Hong Kong or familiar with HK government processes and document requirements
Familiarity with HK utility providers, school application processes, or local service platforms
Experience coordinating with accountants, lawyers, or other professional service providers on behalf of a principal
Background supporting both personal and business needs for a single client or family
Experience with travel research and booking across Asia-Pacific destinations
