Hi, I’m interested in becoming your Executive Virtual Assistant and Business Operations Coordinator. I have experience in virtual assistance, administrative support, customer communication, lead management, CRM updates, research, data organization, and back-office operations. I can manage emails and enquiries, organize calendars and appointments, follow up with clients, suppliers and prospects, maintain CRM records, prepare quotations and business documents, assist with recruitment and interview scheduling, and keep deadlines and outstanding tasks properly tracked. I’m also comfortable with invoices, file organization, procurement-related administration, and weekly reporting. I have worked with Microsoft Office, Google Workspace, Excel/Google Sheets, GoHighLevel, HubSpot, Trello, Notion, JIRA, and other business tools. I’m comfortable learning new systems quickly and working independently without constant supervision. My approach to keeping a busy business owner organized is to maintain one clear system for priorities, deadlines, follow-ups, and pending tasks, then proactively check what needs attention before it becomes urgent. My rate is 3/hour, and I’m available for 20–25 hours per week initially, with flexibility to increase as the workload grows. I’m looking for a long-term opportunity where I can become a dependable part of the business. I’d be happy to discuss your current workflow and priorities.

A healthcare staffing business can lose growth from two directions at once: leads are not followed through quickly enough, while operational issues consume the time that should be spent winning new contracts. This role needs someone who can keep both sides moving without letting either become an afterthought. My approach would be to build a disciplined pipeline around nursing homes, healthcare organisations and private clients, with structured prospecting, follow-ups, quotations and meeting coordination. At the same time, I’d keep CRM records, staff documentation, onboarding tasks and client issues organised so management always has visibility into what is moving, what is stalled, and where intervention is needed. I bring experience across business development, client communication, research, administration, follow-up and digital operations, with a strong focus on turning conversations into measurable next steps. I would be transparent that my background is not specifically within the Irish healthcare sector, but I’m comfortable learning regulated workflows quickly and working independently within defined compliance requirements. Available for a long-term remote arrangement, with rate negotiable around the scope and expected hours. Would the first priority be winning new nursing-home contracts or improving the existing lead and operations pipeline?

?IF YOU'RE NOT HAPPY, YOU DON'T PAY.? I recently assisted a healthcare staffing firm in streamlining their operations and boosting client engagement, resulting in a notable increase in new contracts. I can help you effectively manage and grow your home care and healthcare staffing business by focusing on client relationships and operational efficiency. I see you need someone who can handle "day-to-day operations" while actively "finding new clients" and building strong relationships. This understanding is key to ensuring a "professional" and "user-friendly" approach. I have extensive experience outside of Freelancer, but am new to Freelancer. My background includes business development and operations management in healthcare, equipping me with the skills to meet your needs. I look forward to discussing how I can contribute to your team's success. Regards, MORNE.
