Admin Assistant - Combat Sports Industry (018-1141)
Looking for Philippines-based candidates
Job Role: Admin Assistant
Compensation range: $1,200 AUD - $1,500 AUD / Monthly
Engagement type: Independent Contractor Agreement
Work Schedule: Monday – Thursday: 12:30 PM – 9:00 PM (AEST) Friday: 12:30 PM – 7:00 PM (AEST)
Who We Are: At Hunt St, we help Australian companies hire top remote talent in the Philippines. For this role, you will be engaged directly by the client as an independent contractor. We are not an outsourcing agency. All of our roles are 100% remote so you'll be able to work from home.
Who The Client Is: This premier combat sports and martial arts academy is a top-tier training facility located on the south side of Brisbane, Queensland. The center provides high-quality coaching in Muay Thai, Boxing, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ), and Mixed Martial Arts (MMA). It serves a diverse community, ranging from absolute beginners and fitness enthusiasts to professional athletes, all within a supportive and ego-free environment.
Role Overview: We are seeking a highly organised and proactive Virtual Assistant (VA) to support the day-to-day administration of our business. This role requires someone who is detail-oriented, tech-savvy, and experienced with customer service, administration, CRM management, and digital marketing.
We're not a corporate business, and we don't want to sound like one. We pride ourselves on building genuine relationships with our members and communicating in a friendly, down-to-earth, and conversational way. We're looking for someone who can become an extension of our team and communicate with our members as if they're talking to a real person—not receiving a generic or scripted response.
While experience in the combat sports industry isn't required, an interest in or basic knowledge of sports like Muay Thai, Boxing, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ), or MMA would be an advantage.
The ideal candidate will be confident using Go High Level, Google Workspace, and WordPress, while being able to manage multiple tasks efficiently with minimal supervision.
