How your remote virtual assistant Durham NC works
Durham is part of the Research Triangle along with Raleigh and Chapel Hill. Key local sectors are life sciences, biotech, tech, education and healthcare. Duke University and the nearby Research Triangle Park drive demand for admin and research support. Biotech and life science firms have heavy admin loads — clinical records, grant tracking and vendor updates. Tech firms need scheduling, reporting and data entry. Your VA handles all of these task types. Shifts run on Eastern Time so your VA is there when your Durham office is open.
Your VA uses the tools you already have — Gmail, Outlook, Slack, Asana or Trello. They do not make outbound calls. All work goes through a team lead check before it reaches you.
