About the Position

A small faith-based creative marketing company is seeking a creative, organized, and highly efficient Virtual Assistant to support graphic design, content publishing, client onboarding, quality assurance, and administrative work.

This is an execution-focused role. Marketing strategy, messaging, content plans, and creative direction will be provided. The assistant must be able to follow written instructions or Loom videos, work independently, and complete assignments quickly and accurately without extensive supervision.

Some projects include Christian or ministry-related content. Applicants must be comfortable working with faith-based messaging and purpose-driven organizations.

Responsibilities

  • Design social media graphics, carousels, blog images, email graphics, and other digital materials in Canva
  • Follow established brand guidelines, templates, and creative direction
  • Make light edits to captions, headlines, calls to action, and graphic text
  • Use AI tools to assist with proofreading, content repurposing, light writing, and visual planning
  • Upload, format, and schedule approved social media content using Metricool
  • Upload and format approved blog posts in WordPress
  • Format, test, and schedule newsletters in various email marketing platforms
  • Monitor the company email and respond to routine messages using approved templates
  • Organize client files, forms, assets, account access, and onboarding materials
  • Conduct structured onboarding calls and help clients connect their social media platforms to Metricool
  • Update task-management systems and maintain accurate records
  • Review work completed by team members and catch spelling, formatting, link, date, scheduling, or branding errors before publication
  • Assist with other related creative and administrative tasks as needed

What We Are Looking For

The ideal candidate:

  • Has strong Canva and basic graphic-design skills
  • Works quickly without sacrificing accuracy
  • Is organized, dependable, and detail-oriented
  • Can follow instructions and complete assignments with minimal supervision
  • Is a fast, self-directed learner who can navigate unfamiliar platforms
  • Uses tutorials, help documentation, and independent research to solve routine problems
  • Knows when to troubleshoot independently and when to ask for clarification
  • Is comfortable respectfully identifying errors, regardless of who completed the original work
  • Can manage multiple client brands without confusing their content or instructions
  • Communicates clearly and meets agreed-upon deadlines

Experience with WordPress, Metricool, email marketing platforms, AI tools, and basic video editing is preferred. Adobe Creative Suite knowledge is helpful but not required.

This opportunity may be especially well suited to a current college student or recent graduate studying graphic design, communications, marketing, digital media, or a related field. Experienced and self-taught candidates are also encouraged to apply.

Role Boundaries

This assistant will not be responsible for developing marketing strategies, determining content direction, advising clients, or managing ongoing client relationships.
