I see you’re looking for someone to help manage the founder's calendar and coordinate meetings across multiple time zones.

I read your listing closely — an orchestration layer for SME finance in the missing middle isn't a small idea, and while you're running live bank/financier pilots and raising, you don't need admin help, you need someone who closes loops without being asked. That's exactly what I do. I've supported founders in fast-moving, investor-facing environments: owning calendars across time zones, running inboxes where a missed reply could cost a term sheet, and building investor/partner pipelines from scratch — tracked by stage, warmth, and next step so nothing goes cold. How I'd help: Calendar/inbox: zero double-bookings, same-day triage, professional replies drafted in your voice Follow-ups: live tracker of every open thread, weekly digest of what's moving vs stuck Investor pipeline: research funds/family offices, warm-intro paths, right materials to right people LinkedIn: manage comments/DMs, route genuine investor/partner leads to you fast Discretion: comfortable with confidential cap table and financier data I'm organized, calm under ambiguity, and genuinely interested in Global South SME finance — not treating this as generic admin. Also I can work upto 50 hrs a week and I am confident what I do. Happy to start with a short paid trial so you can see the fit firsthand, then discuss ongoing scope. Would love a quick call to walk you through how I'd prioritize week one.
