Title: Administrative Assistant (Full-Time)
Location: Luzon, Philippines (100% REMOTE WFH)
Shift: Late Shift with flexible hours (8:30 PM - 1:30 AM PHT are required core working hours - your remaining hours are flexible and can be completed before or after the core hours)
About The Role
TaxValet is looking for an Administrative Assistant to help our teams eliminate the hassle and risk of sales tax. You’ll be using your project management and attention to detail skills to assist our New Client Onboarding and Client Tax Specialist Teams at TaxValet. This will be a highly collaborative role and will involve excellent time management skills to adequately share your support with multiple teams.
As an Administrative Assistant at TaxValet, the work you'll do day-to-day will likely change. But at the end of the day, it all comes back to doing what you're great at—providing friendly and effective internal administrative support. That way, the TaxValet team can stay focused on what they're great at (delivering an incredible sales tax service for our clients).
In time, you’ll be the go-to person for many vital processes at TaxValet including: integrating clients into our internal software systems, client pricing system management, client offboarding tasks, time tracking monitoring and support, document prep, and executing various forms necessary for our client work to be completed in a timely manner.
Don’t worry—we’ll provide lots of training and help along the way. Your attitude and potential is much more important than your current knowledge and experience.
About TaxValet
We’re not just a tax company. We’re an emotions company. We believe that the work we do is a reflection of our higher purpose in life. And if the work isn’t fulfilling and enjoyable, what’s the point? At TaxValet, our core purpose is to “transform negative emotions into something positive for our clients, partners, and each other”. It just so happens that we do that by eliminating the hassle and stress of sales tax. We are looking for candidates who are enthusiastic and want to work towards our Core Purpose, too.

- Own It: We take responsibility for the outcomes, both good and bad.
- Crush It: We strive for excellence in everything we do. We are competitive and want to WIN!
We are also a “give 1%” organization. This means that 1% of profit, employee time, and service time is dedicated towards nonprofits. We have contributed to Queer Asterisk following the shooting at a nightclub in Colorado Springs, typhoon disaster relief in the Philippines, and StrongMinds to help treat depression in Africa.
