About The Plugs IO
The Plugs IO is a premium operations and growth agency. We build the systems, processes, automations, content pipelines, and brand infrastructure, that help mission-driven founders, coaches, nonprofits, and real estate professionals scale with clarity and precision.
Nonprofit clients represent a significant and valued part of who we serve. They carry big missions and operate lean. This VA role exists to give those organizations the operational backbone they need to move with the same precision and consistency as any high-performing business.
Our Values — M.C.B.E.E.S.
Maintain Humility · Commit to Completion · Be Innovative · Evolve & Adapt · Elevate Others · Serve with Excellence
Role Overview
We're hiring a VA to support the CSO of The Plugs IO in two integrated capacities: executive operations support and specialized administrative support for real estate and insurance activities.
This is a dual-track role. On the executive side, you'll manage communications, scheduling, research, and coordination. On the industry side, you'll handle the administrative workflows specific to real estate transactions and insurance client management, including document preparation, CRM upkeep, follow-up coordination, and compliance-aware filing.
The right candidate understands how both worlds work, operates with precision in both, and doesn't need to be told where one ends and the other begins.

Exceptional organizational skills, you are managing two specialized pipelines simultaneously
Proficiency in Microsoft 365: Outlook, Teams, Planner, SharePoint, OneDrive, Word

What This Role Is Not
Clarity on Scope
This is not a program director or fundraising strategist role. Not a grant writer, though you will support the process. Not a role where "close enough" is acceptable when donor trust and compliance are on the line. Nonprofit clients often operate with limited bandwidth and high stakes. This role exists to give them precision, reliability, and excellence, the same standard we hold across everything we do at The Plugs IO.
