Looking for a detailed, generative VIRTUAL ASSISTANT with creative, growth-oriented social media skills!

About Me & My Company

I’m Chika and I’m a CPA and Tax Strategist here at Obih Collective, Inc. I work with ambitious, high-earning CEOs that are growing their business rapidly and are passionate about serving their clients.

They are smart about their finances which is why they invest in our highly customized tax & accounting services. By working with us, our clients consistently and confidently save high 5 to 6 figures in taxes every year.

Our done-for-you, strategy focused services gives our clients the peace of mind to do what they love, achieve their goals, while encompassing a smart money mindset. My love of numbers and producing results combined with my passion for entrepreneurship serves my clients well, but now I am growing and looking for my creative sidekick. I need your help!

Now, if we’re going to work together, there’s some things you will want to know about me and my brand.

The name of my company is Obih Collective Inc. but our social brand and identity is The Tax Chick. With our monthly subscription premiere service offering, we empower our clients to make prominent profits and minimize their taxes simultaneously.
Excellence & Fun are two core values of mine. Work should be fun while maintaining a level of quality and brilliance to the mix.
Honesty and integrity is super important to me and are the roots of my business.
My brand is growing…fast. While we can’t work with every entrepreneur, we enjoy providing fun, engaging, educational content on our social channels. Numbers and finances can be daunting. But not the way we do it!
If you’re up for being flexible, this role is going to be a blast! We want someone who can embrace spontaneity and ride the waves of creativity with us, as we navigate the exciting challenges of this role together.
I’m a detail-oriented person. Especially when it comes to understanding tax law to help save my clients thousands of dollars each year. I love what I do and love working with my clients because they love what they do.
When it comes to you, passion is our common denominator.
I need someone who is passionate in what they do. Someone who enjoys getting to know people, is a problem-solver, and is creative-minded.
I have HIGH expectations around integrity. If this is a problem, don’t apply.
Funny enough, I have become the bottleneck in my own business. Managing the client and operational side of things leaves me little time to stay tuned into social media, manage scheduling logistics, or connect with online entrepreneurs on the regular. *Insert you here*

Does the above sound like you?

This is a part-time independent contractor position that requires 25 to 30 hours per month. Although I am based in Oakland, CA, you will work remote. All I ask is that you be located in the USA and be available during regular work hours. For me, that is 10am – 4pm PST Monday – Friday. We will discuss your weekly working schedule that covers your monthly hours. No weekend work.

Pay will range from $18 – $25 per hour (based on experience and skill set). Additional revenue-based bonuses may become available. Experience working with teams required, and bonus points if you’ve worked in a corporate or a mission-driven organization.
