Overview
Executive Assistant / Founder Associate (Remote) Jobs in City of Cape Town, Western Cape, South Africa at Marco Nobel
🕒 Type: Full-time, fully remote
📍 Location: South Africa preferred.
💸 Compensation: EUR 1,500 to 2,500/month, depending on experience
ℹ️ More about me: marconobel.com
📅 Start: As soon as possible
My name is Marco, and I am the founder of Fuse, a real estate company scaling across Europe. The company is currently live in Riga, Budapest, and Vienna, launching Prague, Krakow, and Warsaw this year.
I spend part of the year in Cape Town, but this role is completely remote. I need one person who can keep all of this moving.
🎯 Your Mission
You'll be my operational right hand, keeping projects moving, communication flowing, and execution sharp across everything I do.
Travel & Lifestyle Management:
Book flights, compare hotel prices, coordinate visas, book restaurants, sports courts, and appointments. I travel constantly between Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. This is a big part of the job.
PR & Media Relations:
Pitch podcasts, identify media opportunities, and build a pipeline to get Fuse and me as a founder visible in proptech, real estate, and startup media. Research journalists, draft outreach, and follow up relentlessly.
🤖 AI & Automation
This is non-negotiable. You use AI daily, not just ChatGPT for writing emails. You've built workflows, used tools like Claude, Cursor, or similar AI coding assistants. You can set up automations that save hours. You work alongside AI agents, not around them.
Content & Socials
Oversee Fuse's social media presence, help with LinkedIn content, coordinate with freelancers, and make sure content goes out consistently.
Calendar & Communication
Manage my calendar, protect deep work blocks, and communicate proactively. I don't want end-of-day updates. I want to know what's happening as it happens.
Screening & HR Support
Screen candidates for new hires, schedule interviews, and help me evaluate people as we scale the team across multiple countries.
Task Management
You're fluent in Notion. You keep tasks organized, deadlines visible, and nothing falls through the cracks.
🌱 What You'll Get
This role is a launchpad. You'll learn the inner workings of startups, real estate, and creative business from the inside. You'll become an integral partner in both operations and brand building, with access to an international entrepreneurial network.
🧠 Who You Are
- Structured, fast, and precise.
- You communicate before being asked
- Genuinely AI-native. You don't just use AI, you think in systems and workflows
- Proactive. If something is unclear, you flag it. If something can be done better, you suggest it
Background or degree doesn't matter. Aptitude, speed, and reliability do.
