@estherwatta
Virtual Executive Assistant with CRM and consultative sales expertise for executive-ready support.
What I'm looking for
I’m a proactive, detail-oriented Virtual Executive Assistant with hands-on experience supporting executives in fast-paced remote environments. I’m known for clear communication, analytical thinking, professional composure, and a deep commitment to confidentiality.
In my current role, I manage executive calendars across multiple time zones, coordinate travel, and handle high-volume inbox management so leaders stay focused on high-impact work. I also prepare executive-ready reports, briefing documents, meeting agendas, and presentations, and conduct research and competitive analysis to deliver decision-ready summaries.
I combine executive support with CRM operations—maintaining CRM databases, tracking client pipelines, and supporting sales and relationship management workflows through accurate records and client-focused communication. Earlier, I delivered high-quality customer support in a high-volume contact centre and worked in consultative insurance sales, where I increased personal sales opportunities by 20% through tailored needs assessments and long-term client relationship building.
