Production Assistant / VA to join a growing coffee site! [CLOSED]

Do you want a consistent role that pays on time, every time? How about a role where your responsibility (and paid hours) can increase over time? How about a position where you’re treated like a valued team member with feedback and support?

I’m Marko, the founder of CraftCoffeeSpot.com. Craft Coffee Spot is a growing website with high-quality content about coffee, from brewing guides to product reviews. We have a big pipeline of new content, and really need someone to help upload and publish content.

This hire will start as a production assistant who uploads articles to WordPress. You should be familiar with WordPress and Canva but do not need web development skills.

Uploading articles is task-oriented with weekly articles. Importantly, you should have strong attention to detail and be highly organized.

While you should take pride in completing repetitive tasks, you should also be able to think for yourself. This role isn’t about blindly following checklists. If you spot something that’s wrong, you should let me know. You’ll be the last check before content goes live and should have a keen eye for spotting errors and working through issues.

The biggest benefit to this role is the potential for additional responsibility. I would like to train this hire to do email outreach and other VA-oriented tasks. The role can grow to a full content manager, including creating article briefs and keyword research. You don’t need prior experience here, just need a passion to learn.

You’ll be paid for additional hours and can even transition to a salary. Think of this role as a potential Chief Operating Officer of the website. Either way, you’ll be a valued team member and treated as such. We’ll have regular feedback calls, and I’ll share business updates so you can see how a successful site is built. I care about my team members, and even just offered to buy my writer an espresso machine!

The hiring process will include an application, interview, paid test, and reference checks (for the final candidates). You must use the secret word “turtle” somewhere in the application. Also, please answer every question, even if they are not required.

Lastly, our site is all about coffee, so interest in coffee is a big plus!
