Virtual assistant (self employed)
Stillingfleet, United Kingdom
My name is Alison and I have over 13 years secretarial and administration experience. Over 9 of these were gained working as a PA for a global pensions and actuarial company based in their Leeds office. I have therefore developed strong computer skills and administrative knowledge which could be used to the benefit of your business. I am available to help clients with: typing (digital transcription ...and copy), word processing, administration, virtual secretarial tasks including: diary management, travel arrangements and general administration, PowerPoint presentations,
desktop publishing,... event management, internet research and also lifestyle management. I have been a freelance PA since 2007 helping a variety of clients from vastly differing sectors of the business world as well as private individuals. As a virtual company there are no geographical limitations and I am always only a phone call or an email away. My ex-boss at the pensions company mentioned above was kind enough to write this testimonial for me: "I had the pleasure of working with Alison at Mercer Limited for several years until 2007, and during most of this time Alison was my personal assistant. Mercer are pension consultants and are heavily involved in providing actuarial, investment, legal, communication and consultancy advice, as well as administering pension schemes. Alison and I were client facing and so her role included contact with clients. She also created and maintained databases, organised the billing, arranged travel and meetings and produced reports, letters and internal communications. To do all this, which often involved tight deadlines, Alison exhibited superb organisational skills. She also obtained the co-operation of colleagues of varying seniority and liaised effectively with other departments and offices. Alison set a uniformly excellent standard in all aspects of her work, including marvellous people skills. In every office there are tensions and disagreements, but Alison never created any of these and was always a calming influence. Her cheerful, balanced approach had a positive effect on office morale. She was comfortable with new technology and continually strove to improve, even though her standards were already the best. I have no hesitation in recommending Alison's secretarial and PA services.
