WordPress & Administrative Assistant

Elevate Growth Solutions is growing, and we're looking for an organized, reliable contractor to own routine WordPress maintenance and admin support, keeping client sites maintained and projects moving.

About the role

Help us keep client websites and projects running smoothly

EGS provides website development, maintenance, and digital marketing services. As our client work grows, we're looking for a dependable contractor to take ownership of routine WordPress maintenance and administrative tasks.

You'll work directly with the owner, using clear instructions and documented processes. Once you've learned a process, it's yours to own.

  • Clear direction and written instructions
  • Video walkthroughs for recurring tasks

Responsibilities

What you'll be doing

WordPress support

  • Perform routine plugin updates and backups according to established procedures.
  • Navigate and work within plugins and their settings to make routine changes.
  • Update existing website text, images, and other supplied content.
  • Check websites after changes and flag issues that need further attention.
  • Keep concise records of maintenance and completed edits.

Administrative support

  • Organize inboxes and draft routine client replies.
  • Follow up on outstanding materials, questions, and approvals.
  • Maintain project trackers, task assignments, and deadlines.
  • Flag upcoming deadlines and stalled tasks so the team can act.
  • Prepare routine client updates and recap emails using information provided by the team.

What we're looking for

Organized, reliable, and comfortable owning recurring work

Experience supporting a small agency or managing tasks across multiple clients is helpful.

  • Hands-on experience maintaining and editing WordPress websites.
  • Comfort regularly working within and navigating WordPress plugins, not just updating them.
  • Strong organization, attention to detail, and written communication.
  • Reliable follow-through and the ability to manage recurring responsibilities.
  • Comfort using spreadsheets and task-management tools such as Trello.
  • Willingness to learn from written procedures and video walkthroughs.
  • Good judgment about when to complete a task independently and when to ask for help.

Hours & starting arrangement

How we'll get started

Every step is paid. Hours and priorities are agreed in advance.

  1. Small paid project

    We begin with a short, paid project so we can both see how we work together.

  2. Paid 20-hour trial

    If there's a mutual fit, we move into a paid 20-hour trial spread over 2–3 weeks.

  3. Ongoing role

    The anticipated ongoing need is around 10 hours per week, with potential to grow toward 20 as client work increases.
