Joyce Waceke
@joycewaceke
Executive virtual assistant supporting CEOs and founders with confidential, streamlined operations and customer-focused support.
What I'm looking for
I’m a highly organized and proactive Executive virtual assistant with strong experience supporting CEOs, founders, and senior leaders in fast-paced remote environments. I anticipate needs, maintain confidentiality, and focus on executive operations that keep teams moving—by managing complex calendars, inbox priorities, and cross-time-zone scheduling.
Across my roles, I streamline workflows through operations and process optimization, prepare executive summaries, presentations, and reports, and coordinate projects and tasks to keep timelines on track. I also bring customer support experience—resolving issues via email/chat to improve satisfaction and retention—and hands-on admin and operations support, including CRM and data management, documentation accuracy, website updates (WordPress), e-commerce tasks (Shopify), and procurement and inventory monitoring.
