Remote Operations Assistant (Part-Time)

**Part\-Time Operations Assistant Position** **Overview:** Capital Creek Bookkeeping is a small, fully remote bookkeeping business run by a tight\-knit team of three — Kevin (owner) and two assistant bookkeepers, Chelsea and Adriana. Things are running well, but the bookkeepers have full plates, and there's a growing need for someone to help with the operational side of the business — the tasks that fall outside of bookkeeping but are essential to keeping things running smoothly. We're looking for a part\-time Operations Assistant — essentially a jack of all trades who can be handed a task and either run with it or make solid progress on it. Think of it as a virtual assistant meets operations role. While there are some administrative tasks you’ll be responsible for, this position is mainly related to the operations side of the business. Your work will directly support the team and help us continue delivering great bookkeeping services to our clients. This is a part\-time role with a guaranteed minimum of 5 hours per week, and it will always remain part\-time. I estimate you will work anywhere from 5 to 15 hours in a given week. If you're someone who's detail\-oriented, self\-motivated, and comfortable working in a small, nimble business environment, this might be a great fit. **Let’s get the potential pitfalls out of the way first:** * **The hours fluctuate.** We guarantee 5 hours per week, but some weeks you'll have a lot on your plate and other weeks you may have very little. If you need consistent, predictable hours, this probably isn't the right fit. * **The schedule has some non\-negotiables.** While your schedule is generally flexible, you must be available to work on the 2nd and 3rd of every month for an important bank statement gathering task — no exceptions outside of holidays, weekends, or planned vacation time. You'll also need some regular availability on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. * **You need to stay checked in even when there's no work.** We'll communicate through ClickUp and Slack, and you're expected to check both throughout the week. Things can come up that need to be handled quickly and can't wait until the following week. * **Onboarding can be challenging.** Learning our systems, how our ClickUp is organized, and how we operate takes time and focus. We need someone who can come in, absorb how we do things, and then start contributing — not someone who gets frustrated during the learning curve. * **There's no upward mobility.** This role will always be part\-time and will not transition into a full\-time position. We're a lean team by design and plan to stay that way. * **We're a small, nimble business.** If you need a lot of structure, hand\-holding, or a formal corporate environment, this isn't going to be a good fit. **Now let’s talk about the good stuff:** * **It's fully remote.** Work from wherever you want. * **It's built to fit your life.** This is a part\-time role designed to slot into your schedule, not take it
