Manta Sleep is HIRING!

TLDR: We’re seeking an experienced project management assistant for an eCommerce company (full-time, fully remote, Europe/Asia timezone)
We’re seeking an experienced project management assistant to support our project manager in the coordination and execution of product launches, sales campaigns, and operational improvements. You will also assist in administrative tasks that will help the operations team improve our systems and processes. You will also support the project manager in maintaining our standard operating procedures.

This role is fully remote and requires you to work in either Europe or Asia time zones. Salary starts in the $600-$2000 USD per month range. Benefits are outlined in detail below.

*NOBODY LIKES JOB HUNTING, BUT THERE’S A REASON WHY YOU’RE HERE...
*

Maybe you’re sick of office politics and layers of bureaucracy and crave the support of a team who’s got your back - without hidden agendas.

Maybe you’re overworked and underappreciated and want to be somewhere that prioritizes both your rest & output, and rewards you based on results rather than hours.

Or, maybe you’re just feeling stuck with your career and are looking for the right environment to excel and get to the next level.

Whatever your reasons, it’s exhausting and demoralizing to push back against a culture that doesn’t fit you.

We get it. We know how you feel.

That’s why we do things differently.

HOW ARE WE DIFFERENT?

Take a look at the short 2-minute video below. This is who we are as a company and team:

If you can relate to what we’re about, this could be an amazing opportunity for you.

IS THIS YOU?

We’re looking for a dependable, detail-oriented, and organized project management assistant.

We need someone who:

  • Is a self-starter, when given resources & training, can get things done without hand-holding.
  • Has a natural sense of urgency. When things arise, you’re the first to tackle them.
  • Is naturally detail-oriented and organized. Someone who has their desk and bedroom clean and neat.
  • Loves checklists and is comfortable with project management tools.
  • Thrives in a support role and always has a positive attitude.
  • Is a learner at heart and is always working on self-development.
  • Is effective at verbal and written communication and following up is second nature to you.
  • Who has at least 2 years working experience in either administrative, operations or a project management role.
  • Is tech-savvy, resourceful, and comfortable with online work.
  • Who has some experience with common eCommerce tools such as Slack, Google Drive, Asana, Shopify, Klaviyo, etc.

You should also have these attributes:

You have superb attention to detail

You are someone who pays attention to every little detail – not only in your work but in everything you do. This is a must-have for this position, and a fundamental core value at Vansburg.

You can get things done

Training and resources will be provided in your journey, but ultimately you can take on a project and get things DONE. You are resourceful, goal-driven, creative, persistent, and can accomplish objectives without much hand-holding.

You are very organized

You are highly organized and able to tackle multiple projects at once. You are able to keep track of things under tight schedules and stay in control under pressure.

You can handle pressure in a fast-paced environment

This position can be demanding, with multiple responsibilities and tight deadlines. We’re looking for someone who can handle the pressure, and manage the stress, without crumbling.

You are a problem solver

Your focus is to solve problems for the team as a project management assistant. Not all of your tasks and responsibilities will have clear guidance, so you’ll need to figure out the best way to accomplish the objective.

You are empathetic & thoughtful

We need someone who has empathy and EQ to be able to adapt to the ways each team member works, not the other way around.

You are proactive and eager to take on responsibility

In a small business environment, things come up, and problems need to be solved. If you are the kind of person who sits back and thinks “that’s not my responsibility,” then please don’t apply.

You genuinely care about people

If you are the kind of person that genuinely cares about others, and you give generously of your time and energy in helping others, we’ll be happy to have you around.

Assist the project manager in the coordination and execution of product launches, sales campaigns, and operational improvements.
