The employer listing
✨ VeeAys Quick Read
We've organized this employer's listing to make it easier to scan. Important requirements and details come from the original job posting.
Structured details above and employer wording below are shown separately; any differences are left visible.
What you'll do
- What you'll actually do:
- Run the CEO's day so he doesn't have to think about logistics: calendar, travel, prep, follow-through.
- Catch things before they become problems.
- We expect you to flag what we missed. Hold the full picture in your head: who owes what, what's due when, which thread is still open.
- Turn vague direction into a finished result without being walked through it.
- Build and maintain checklists for everything, because nothing falls through a good checklist.
What they're looking for
- Strong English communication skills are required for this position.
Nice to have
- Who we're looking for:
- You think fast and you think clearly. Sloppy logic is a dealbreaker.
- Your memory is sharp. People are surprised by what you remember.
- You are relentlessly organized. You love checklists, genuinely, not as a line on a résumé.
- You're proactive. You'd rather ask forgiveness than wait for instructions on the obvious.
- You think strategically. You see why a task matters, not just what the task is.
- When the standard template doesn't fit, you build a better one.

About the company
- Smartland manages 1,400+ rental homes and apartments. The CEO moves fast and decides faster. This role exists to make him faster still: to remove friction, anticipate the next three steps, and never let a ball drop. You are his memory, his logic check, and his second brain.
Application notes

- You drop tasks and blame the volume.
- You're hoping to wing it. We will find out by week one.
