Join the Admin Slayer™ Team
What We Do
We are very serious about helping our business-owner clients achieve great success - in fact, it’s the reason why we exist. At Admin Slayer, our goal is to fill in the missing pieces in their business, in an effective and efficient way, that allows the business to grow and become successful, with the support of a team of experts.
There are many businesses and business ideas that don’t achieve the level of success - or even traction - that they so richly deserve. It’s not because the idea was bad or the market wasn’t there. It’s because the business owner was great at that one thing they do, and they weren’t that great at some parts of business operation.
That’s where Admin Slayer comes in. We are an experienced, close team of Canadian professional administrators, each of us knowing how to run back end operations, including: client service, calendar management and follow-ups, task management and completion, process and procedure creation and maintenance, social media management, and much more. We don’t have “juniors” who need supervision or review. We do all those basic yet vital pieces that are required in every single kind of business, no matter the industry - efficiently, effectively, and professionally.
What We Don’t Want
We have found that when we are developing any kind of goal - and we are so very, very goal focused at Admin Slayer - it’s important to clarify what we really don’t want before we dig into the things we do.
If any of the below are you, we know you have what it takes to be incredibly successful somewhere else.
You’re biding your time doing administration until that better thing that you really want comes to pass.
You don’t think that administration is a profession, nor that it really deserves a great deal of respect.
You don’t like learning, figuring out solutions, reading, or accepting guidance.
You think technology savvy is just a “nice to have” but figure you will probably learn if given enough time.
You think administration = data entry.
You’re looking for something to do off the side of your desk so you can make a few dollars when you’re not doing your ‘real’ job.
You need to receive or follow a precise set of instructions to know what to do.
You prefer to work on your own rather than in a collaborative team environment.
You think that deadlines are movable and tasks can be “mostly” completed.
You think working from home is something to fit in at the same time as: you watch your kids’ sports, cook meals, and take care of your aging parents. You can definitely build your work schedule around these things - many Slayers have these same responsibilities - but you need dedicated work time and space to make this work.
We Would Love to Have
We would love to have you join our team if:
You are truly self-motivated, the type of person who can take charge of a situation, client or problem, and get ‘er done.
You think ahead and consider what you would want to have happen if this was your business.
People often wonder - out loud - what they would do without you.
You are an open, thoughtful communicator.
You have strong overall computer skills and have a newer computer, with video camera and multiple monitor capabilities.
You have between 3 and 5 hours a day during the work week (Monday to Friday); you have experience working from home and have a dedicated space where you can entirely focus on your work.
You are resourceful, curious and learn quickly. You think critically and proactively, finding efficiencies and improvements rather than doing the status quo without question.
You get excited about words like “teamwork” and “collaboration”. It would be amazing to be a part of a team that is actually supportive, and really believes in you.
You love processes, procedures, calendaring and tasks lists….and that next new tool that someone just might need.
You believe that hard deadlines are hard deadlines; they aren’t adjustable, and you MUST adhere to them.
Quality is your name. Your first, last, and middle name. Everything you do is a reflection of YOU.
You honestly want the people around you to achieve success, and are ready to pitch in to help them do just that.
You own what you are working on. Even if someone else is the leader, this is your job. You always make sure that your piece of the puzzle is complete, and helpful to the next person completing their piece. You’d also like to understand their piece of the puzzle better, because you’re pretty sure that knowing that would make your work better.
You are very protective of client data and have a deep respect for both your personal computer security habits and Canada’s Personal Information laws.
Admin Slayer mostly subcontracts self-employed individuals to work from their home to provide high level administrative support to our clients with cloud-based environments. We look for Slayers who wish to commit 15 to 25 hours per week to client work, starting slowly and gradually working up to three to five clients. Clients generally need support Monday to Friday which we do in collaborative teams of two or more. That means you can support each other when you need time off, and ensures our clients have reliable administrative help. Slayers take ownership of the work that they do, and enjoy fostering long-term relationships with clients, and with our company.
Being a Slayer is an amazing work experience unlike any other: the flexibility of managing your work hours within your personal schedule, good pay, no commute, no dress code(!), a close family-like team that will surprise you with its support, camaraderie, and complete lack of drama.
If you would like to find out more about how to become a Slayer, have killer admin skills and a longing for a real team environment, we want to hear from you! If your current work situation isn’t quite conducive to our model but you’d like to get there, we’d love to talk to you too!
