Editor and VA

Saint Albans, United Kingdom

About Me

I am a freelance PA and editor. As an Oxford graduate, I have exceedingly high standards and proofread all projects several times before submission to the client.

PA work: I offer general secretarial support, having worked as a PA in the city of London for several years. As a fast audio typist, I enjoy transcription work as it provides a variety of topics throughout the working week. My excellent organisational skills lend themselves to diary management and I am in a good position to provide administrative help to small businesses. I can format documents to suit different filing systems and am happy to make reasonable amendments when requested. Deadlines, once agreed, are set in stone and I take pride in being a reliable service provider. In addition, I can provide a basic book keeping service where required.

Copy-editing: I have experience of working with native writers and with authors for whom English is a second language. I have worked with a variety of non-fiction texts, including legal court documentation and a military history book. I prefer to use word documents to track changes but am happy to discuss marking up hard copies where preferred.

I aim to maintain a high level of communication with all clients and will not invoice until I have received confirmation that a job has been satisfactorily completed.
