Keeps matter files organised and deadlines clear. The team is stretched and wants steady, predictable help instead of another full-time hire. It sells online, so volumes move with promotions and the calendar matters. The company prefers a person who can come to St. Joseph for kickoff and the final review; the rest is remote. You choose your hours; nothing is scheduled except an occasional short call. About 2 hours a week should overlap with the team's day (CT). ## What you deliver - Organise matter files, update the docket and send a weekly deadline list. - A short handover note when the engagement pauses or ends - Work logged against the agreed list, so the company contact can see progress without a call - Questions collected in one thread, answered within one working day ## What a week looks like - Monday: 15-minute check-in to agree the week's items - Tuesday: main working block (3 hours) - Thursday: hand-off note with what shipped and what is open **Duration:** 12 weeks, renewable.
