We are seeking a detail-oriented, reliable, and fast-moving Virtual Assistant for Data Collection and Entry. This role is ideal for someone who is comfortable working independently, following documented procedures precisely, and completing data requests quickly without sacrificing accuracy.
The selected candidate will be responsible for collecting contact records from approved data providers, using assigned zip codes to gather HONOMA data, downloading completed files, and posting the finished deliverables into our team Slack channel. This position requires strong attention to detail, speed, consistency, and the ability to follow Standard Operating Procedures, also known as SOPs, without errors.

| Quality Control | Review completed files before submission to ensure that data is complete, accurate, and free from avoidable errors. |
| Timely Completion | Complete assigned requests quickly, especially when requests are time-sensitive or have a required turnaround window. |

In addition to the hourly rate, the role may include performance-based bonuses for prompt completion, accurate work, SOP compliance, and consistent reliability. Specific bonus details will be discussed with selected applicants during the hiring and onboarding process.
