About me

Highly motivated and enthusiastic Virtual Assistant, committed to delivering on time without
compromising on quality.

Experienced in a wide range of support services including general administration, transcription, Personal Assistant, Project co-ordination, Presentation and Excel spreadsheet creation.

A little extra help can make all the difference, as a Virtual Assistant I provide an extra pair of hands to take care of your admin tasks.

This can be anything from booking a flight for a business trip, typing up a letter that you have dictated eariler in the day or creating an admin process to help your business run smoother.

The advantage of using a Virtual Assistant is flexibility, whether you need help on an ad-hoc or regular part-time basis, we only charge for the hours worked. As well as not having to pay for any employee overheads such as NI, sick and holiday pay.
