Allison M
 
Virtual Assistant / Personal Assistant (fully freelance)

London, United Kingdom

About Me

I am a freelance PA VA working either from my fully equipped home office in London or from clients premises. I have 10 years experience as a Personal Asisstant and have worked for a number of high profile organisations in and around London. I have been fully freelance for over 3 years and have built up a strong roster of clients.

I offer traditional PA services such as presentation creation, word processing, data entry, transcription and audio typing, meeting organisation, travel planning and booking, research, invoicing, credit control, project management and event management. I also undertake a range of personal 'lifestyle' tasks such as keyholding, organising tradesmen, sourcing gifts, restaurant and ticket reservations and all the other things that can take valuable time out of your day. I have extensive experience with high profile individuals and specialise in the creative industries. I enjoy assisting people from all walks of life and have experience working with start-ups and sole traders.

As a fully freelance professional and not someone looking to substitute my income you can rest assured of my reliability and ability to turn around all work in a timely manner.

Areas covered: London, (if on-site). Anywhere in the UK for virtual services.
