Although similar in nature, there are some key differences between the two roles.
The focus of an Online Business Manager is on 'management'. They keep an eye on the big picture and manage all the pieces (projects, team members, operations, expenses) to ensure that all projects are getting completed in a timely and efficient manner.
The focus of the Virtual Assistant is on 'doing'. They perform specific tasks (customer service, data entry, etc.) and are the ones actually doing the work.
