Top quality, committed and professional Virtual Assistant

I am searching for the best Virtual Assistants in the UK to join my team of VAs as my company is entering a period of significant growth.

My business is a premier provider of PA and secretarial support to UK businesses, with a focus on helping those businesses to grow and maximise their potential. I'm looking for highly experienced PAs who have good knowledge of UK business and how it works, and who share my understanding of how efficient business support is crucial to the success of a business.

I am not looking for admin assistants who just want to do typing. I am looking for business support specialists who can hit the ground running with my clients and do anything and everything that is needed to help them on their journey to business success, and offer advice and suggestions along the way. This can be anything from diary bookings to full scale project management and everything in between.

My clients are typically entrepreneurs or growing small businesses, people who have a vision and desire to grow and develop to bigger things, so you must be able to handle people who work at a fast pace, who make lots of demands and expect high standards.

My ideal VA is fast, efficient and completely on the ball, has a thorough knowledge of UK business and experience at board level/corporate level or high level PA support . You must be able to cope with the demands of extremely busy executives. You must also be available 9-5 Monday to Friday.Whilst the role can be flexible to a point, this is not a part time opportunity and won't work around a busy family schedule. For the right person, this will become a full time role and so I would prefer somebody who doesn't have ambitions of growing their own VA business at the moment. I foresee this to be a long term role.

Essential skills/requirements, you MUST be able/willing to do the following:
- Social media management (you need to understand Twitter and Facebook) - includes researching and writing social media content for clients
- Email campaign management (Mailchimp etc.) including writing newsletter content
- Wordpress - you need a working knowledge of Wordpress and basic HTML
- You must be willing to take phone calls and make calls (no 'call handling' as such, but calls will transferred through to you as part of your 'PA' role) - this is essential, please don't bid if you don't want to talk on the phone.
- Telemarketing/follow ups (following up on warm leads only)
- Spreadsheets - intermediate knowledge of Microsoft Excel, you must be able to create and adapt client spreadsheets so that they work efficiently and are time saving (using pivot tables, formulae and data validation for example)
- Digital transcription (and good typing speed)
- Good standard of spelling and grammar
- Access to fast broadband and computer with Microsoft Office
- If you are a qualified book-keeper that would be a distinct advantage!
- Able to work completely on own initiative, take an idea and run with it.
- You also need to be able to offer advice and guidance where needed as to how best to implement organisational structures within a business - you will be the expert in this field.


I am looking for somebody to start from End of May/early June (perhaps sooner, but this isn't yet confirmed). The reason I am advertising now is because I need to make sure I find the right people for this role and think it is going to take me a while! Suitable VAs will be asked to undertake a few trial tasks to verify your skills. If you are not willing to do this, please don't bid.

I am only searching for the absolute best people right now, whilst I don't bite, I do know exactly what I want and will not compromise on that. This is your chance to be part of an exciting project that offers lots of challenges and is very rewarding. If you think you are up to the job, please get in touch!
