Leopard Operations Agency

Connecting founders and online business owners to world-class South African Executive Assistants—elite support at a fraction of the cost.

Hiring shouldn’t slow you down.

We connect founders and online business owners to top-tier Executive Assistants from South Africa who are skilled, college-educated, culturally-aligned and ready to hit the ground running.

We’re not traditional recruiters. While others fill job descriptions, we help you build operational excellence (because we know the cost of the wrong hire)—starting with exceptional EAs available for 10, 20, or 40 hours a week in your time zone.

Cut costs without cutting quality. Your hire earns more than they would locally and you pay a fraction of domestic rates.

It’s equity in action—and it works.

We take care of administration and accountability, so you don't have to.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does this work?

We start with a discovery call to understand your operational needs. If we’re aligned, we take a small deposit to begin the process. From there, we tap into our pre-vetted talent pool of exceptional Executive Assistants and send you two curated matches based on your requirements, work style, and timezone.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes. If your hire isn’t the right fit within the first 30 days, we’ll source a replacement—at no extra cost.

Do you offer ongoing support?

We manage:

- Payroll

- Monthly performance feedback

- Ongoing mentorship

- Timesheet submissions

So you can stay focused on growing your business.

How do you screen talent?

Our core values—agility, speed, excellence, and accountability—set the bar. Only candidates who meet this standard make it into our talent pool. Every Executive Assistant we present to you is:

-University-educated

-Culturally fluent for global teams

-Experienced with 1+ years of remote Executive Assistant work

We also create a custom assignment tailored to your needs to assess their skills—so you only meet talent we know can deliver.

How do you protect my business when hiring globally?

Global hiring without a local entity means there is little to no compliance governing the relationship between you and your international hire. That’s why we’ve designed our contractor agreements to give you all the benefits of remote work.

Here’s how we protect you:

- Notice periods are built into every agreement, so you’re not left in the lurch if a contractor decides to leave.

- We have a built-in procedure for disputes giving you a clear path to resolution.

- Clear terms of engagement mean both you and your hire know exactly how the relationship operates from day one.

With Leopard, you can build a lean team globally with confidence.
