See how the relationship works

Before you brief

Bring the working context.

What repeats each week? Which tools and documents are involved? Who approves external communication?

Start a brief

Plan the role

Agree the detail before the first day.

Use the onboarding checklist

Make the recurring workload visible

List the calendars, documents, meeting preparation and routine correspondence that need attention. Include frequency and deadlines so the scope can be discussed against the available hours.

Agree access and communication

Document who can approve outgoing correspondence, calendar changes and updates to shared records. Give the person an escalation contact and the access needed for the agreed responsibilities.

Questions about the role.

For budget planning, start with the scope and the working arrangement.

What to include in a quote
How does this relate to hiring a virtual assistant?

Virtual assistant can describe many arrangements and levels of responsibility. Covela’s approach is to define a role with your business, recruit with human review and support the ongoing employment relationship. Discuss hours, scope and supervision before choosing an arrangement.

Make the administration role your own.

Draft the responsibilities, working hours and context you want to discuss.
