The role of a Creative Marketing & Shopify Virtual Assistant at 20four7VA
20four7VA is seeking offshore independent contractors to deliver remote services to clients worldwide, with a primary focus on developed markets such as the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia.
An established home decor and furniture retailer is seeking a Creative Marketing & Shopify Virtual Assistant to support marketing-material design, Shopify website updates, weekly newsletters, social content, and short-form video editing.
The brand has a modern, natural aesthetic, so the client is particularly interested in a candidate with a strong visual sense and a portfolio demonstrating clean, polished creative work.
The immediate need is execution rather than high-level marketing strategy.
