Offer Your Skills to Clients Who Value Professionalism, Discretion, and Excellence.
You can start browsing project listings right away and apply to ones that are a great fit. If you’d like Clients to discover you directly, create your listing — our team will review and approve it within 24–48 hours.
Get StartedWho We Mean By Administrative Professionals
If you provide remote administrative, operational, or executive support to a leader or an organization, you belong here. That includes executive assistants, virtual assistants, project managers, chiefs of staff, operations coordinators, bookkeepers — and the many roles that don't fit neatly into any of those titles. What matters isn't the title. It's the work: keeping people and organizations running well.
Why Join The Admin Commons?
Curated, values-driven community
This is not an open directory. Every listing is reviewed before going live. That means fewer mismatched inquiries and more aligned, professional relationships from the start.
Direct relationships
You work directly with your Clients. Set your own rates, define your services, and build long-term partnerships. The Admin Commons connects you; it does not manage your contracts or take a role in your working relationship.
Secure payments
All payments are handled securely via Stripe. You send custom quotes, agree terms directly with your Client, and receive payment through the platform.
Clear and simple commission
We operate on a straightforward 10% commission per transaction (5% from Clients & 5% from admin pros). No hidden fees.
How It Works
1. Create your account
Sign up for free and explore the platform. When you're ready, build out your listing — your services, experience, and rates — and submit it for review.
2. Get approved and go live
Once your listing is reviewed and approved, you'll be discoverable by clients. You control your positioning and your pricing.
3. Start the conversation
A Client finds your listing and reaches out, or you find a project posting and apply. Either way, you'll talk directly first.
When you're ready, send a quote covering scope, price, and timing. The Client accepts and pays, and payment is held securely until the work is done.
Before You Send a Quote
Make sure you and your Client agree on what the work actually includes: deliverables, timeline, revisions, and anything that falls outside the scope. Many Administrative Professionals put this in a short written agreement or scope of work, and you can attach that document directly to a message in the transaction so both of you have the same terms in the same place. We also recommend keeping each transaction tied to a defined piece of work rather than an open-ended relationship. For ongoing support, that usually means one transaction per month or per milestone. It keeps things clear for both sides, and it means you're paid on a predictable rhythm rather than waiting until the end of a long engagement.
4. Do the work and mark it complete
You can attach files to messages, so drafts and finished work stay alongside the conversation. Up to 10 files per message, 1 GB each.
If you expect to exchange files often, a shared Drive or Dropbox folder is easier to manage. Send the link in a message so it stays with the transaction.
When the agreed work is done, click Mark this work complete.
5. Get paid
Your Client clicks Approve and release payment, and your payment is released to your Stripe account.
If they don't respond within 14 days, it's approved automatically and you're paid. If they'd like something adjusted first, they can request changes.

We are building a marketplace known for professionalism, respect, and excellence. That means:
