Hello everyone!

I am a busy (and sometimes disorganised) company director who needs some form of admin help, which may include some or all of the following:

Managing 'To do' lists
Email response/ management
Diary Management
Making some calls on my behalf
Typing meeting notes (hope you can read scrawny handwriting...)
Occasional audio dictation
Making travel arrangements

I know that I need this kind of help, but am not sure how it would work in practice, so would appreciate information on how it could work, your experience, charge rates and contingency plans (say if you yourself are of sick or on holiday)

I look forward to hearing from you.
