About Athena:

We are a new startup that recruits Philippines-based EAs and trains clients to delegate 10x more. Our tagline is “We help you win—work and life”. In other words, we help busy people (CEOs, founders, executives) have more impact on work and life by becoming super delegators. Athena takes care of all the administrative work (contract, tracking, payroll) but clients and EAs have a direct, personal relationship just like they would in person. That means clients and EAs are both responsible for communicating well and building a trusted, positive, long-term relationship.

Why Work with Athena?

Be Part of a Supportive Community

Working from home doesn’t have to be lonely. Here at Athena, we have an in-house training team to guide our new EAs, including an assigned EA buddy. Although you’ll be endorsed to a client, it won’t mean you’ll be on your own. You’ll still have the support of our leaders, admin team, training team, and of course, your fellow EAs. You’ll also get to join weekly huddles where we discuss your love-its and surface any challenges you may have. Can’t wait for the weekly huddle? No worries! You can message anyone from Athena or drop them an email anytime!

The Learning Never Stops

Having kick-ass research skills is necessary to be an Athena EA but you can only learn so much from a quick Google search. Want to learn more about the new app your client wants you to learn? Talk to one of our experts! Want to learn a new skill to help your client better? Talk to one of our Playbook Pros! Learned something new? Share your learning and be a mentor to a fellow EA! Here at Athena, we promote self-improvement through sharing of best practices.

We’ve Got Your Back

While some freelancers strike gold on their own by landing long-term contracts with their clients, some are not as fortunate. That’s where Athena comes in. Athena offers a solution to the big issue that all freelancers face: stability. With hundreds of clients on our waitlist, you’ll never have to fear about going without a client for too long! Also, being an Athena EA isn’t limited to taking on client tasks. As an Athena EA, you are also expected to participate in several in-house projects and similar initiatives with Athena. Being paid per hour will never be an issue with Athena as you’ll never be short of work to do!

Work Duration & Working Hours:

The goal is for clients to utilize EA services for 30-40 hours per week. Actual hours will depend on the client and the EA’s ability to teach the client to delegate more and more.

Many clients will initially start with 10-15 hours per week, and it will be the EA’s responsibility to help the client leverage him/her more until the 30- to 40-hour weekly goal is achieved.
Other clients will be ready to start full blast at 30-40 hours per week from the onset (though this is less likely).

The hours you are required to be online will be dictated by the client’s schedule, but you should expect to have significant, if not full, overlap with the client's schedule (mostly PH graveyard hours).

If you are interested in investing in a long-term relationship with Athena, meet the qualifications above and can work full-time and on graveyard hours, please click the APPLY button.
