Hello,



I am a successful, professional, award winning investor who, has a good sense of humor and isn`t too full of himself, and has recently become a licensed realtor in order to assist other investors and home owners with their real estate and investment needs.



I am looking for a fully experienced Executive Assistant to assist me in my office in an administrative role.
(Licensed or Unlicensed)









The Role of an Executive Assistant






The Executive Assistant is a professional position filled by self-starters who take responsibility for a wide range of complex administrative and operational tasks.​ They provide support to the realtor and his clients and also interact with a long list of other service providers on a daily basis. This position requires strong communication, organizational and interpersonal skills and the application of effective problem solving, prioritizing and time management skills to work in a fast paced office environment. The candidate needs to be well spoken and well written.




" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; line-height: 115%;">There are four very important qualifications that must be met for this position to be filled.




The First Qualification - Is all about attitude
: The candidate needs to have the right attitude most of all. By this I mean they need to be optimistic, motivated, pro-active and service orientated. They also need to have an understanding of their own personal core values and the discipline to live by them to a large degree. The need for honesty is a given.





The Second Qualification ` Is all about experience
: The candidate I`m looking for needs to be a high achiever with a fairly long history as an administrative professional. You will be accustom to, and be comfortable with, dealing with other professionals such as business owners, lawyers, bankers, management companies, and other people in executive positions. You will also have strong knowledge of general business operation basics such as bookkeeping, marketing, negotiation, communication, electronic devices, office equipment, and be current with the use of basic modern technologies and quick to learn other applications, etc.





The Third Qualification ` Is all about personality type
: This position needs a person who has a high attention to detail and must love having things organized to a `T`. There is a lot of `paper` is the real estate business and somebody needs to keep track of all the details. They must have a natural tendency to be very deliberate, specific, analytical, and methodical and are typically interested in a lot of detail. Their friends or people who know them well would probably describe the candidate as a `Perfectionist`. The candidate will also enjoy, and be good at, dealing with people, known and unknown, in person and on the phone.

The Fourth Qualification ` Is all about having fun: To put it bluntly ` People who are too serious or full of themselves are a drag to be around for long. I like to work hard in order to be successful and to get the desired task accomplished in an efficient and effective manner but I also like to have a little fun while I do it. Work takes up a lot of my time and I find it`s more pleasurable if I enjoy the people I interact with on a daily basis. A sense of humor is definitely required.
