At Near, we help top talent in Latin America find remote roles with US companies. Our mission is to create better lives by fostering a remote work culture that transcends borders.

This is a role for our client, a partner for retiring business owners in need of an exit, but want their business in trustworthy hands. Their team is growing and they are looking to add a new member to their crew, so if you're looking to be part of a dynamic team you can join them on their mission as an Operations Assistant.

Overview

You are proactive & impatient, but a friendly communicator. You are gifted at reading both people and situations effectively, priding yourself on your intuition. When faced with a difficult situation involving people, you have the ability to convert the unfriendly environment to a more civil atmosphere and influence others to cooperate. Those that know you would describe you as impatient, and mention that you can overwhelm others with your speedy delivery. While you sometimes move too quickly, you enjoy "spinning plates" and thrive in an environment with lots of moving parts. You find it difficult to delegate until trust is earned, and may "test" others until they've proven their worthiness at a given task. You're a detail-oriented perfectionist who gets the job done.
