Simplify your business life and let me take charge of your schedule, email comms and anything else that makes life run more smoothly. I work for a variety of CEO's as their executive assistant, from 1 hour per week to 2-3 hours per day. Whatever works for you.

If you require a one-off project. My other specialisms include creating spreadsheets and templates. I can create you a spreadsheet to pull your data out of accounts software or cash flows, productions plans, bill of materials etc. Need a form for clients or suppliers which can’t be changed, I can create templates which are locked and restricted. I am also a highly Experienced Book-keeper/Accountant/Payroll Manager and degree educated based in UK. Proficient in Sage Cloud, 50, 200, ERP, Xero and QuickBooks. Advanced user of Excel, Ms Word, VBA, Sql and ODBC linking.

If you want to know a bit about me?

To say my work history is eclectic would be somewhat of an understatement.

At 16 I headed in the workplace with a very clear idea of what I should do.. study part-time and head into the world of finance.. that lasted for approximately 4 years.. got qualified.. went up the ladder.. but it didn't 'tick the boxes', I found the 9-5 dull!

Hence the next year of flying around the world as an air hostess..

Back to the real world.. back into finance with an IT twist, learning IT coding to design/support finance software - In my spare time I was learning webdesign with some graphic design on the side.. Again went up the ladder until I felt I'd got as far as I was willing to go in the 9-5!

Colleagues seemed to be getting further because they had the title 'graduate' in their history.. so bring on a 3 year gap to go and get a degree in Law - spent my 'spare' time working in a commercial law firm to give my degree some context.

At 28 years old I started getting involved in start-ups, doing everything from the legalities and formation, setting up the accounting and IT systems to designing the logos and building the websites. Finally my dotted career history seemed to have found its purpose and having skills in a variety of areas which a new business needs, I have found my purpose!

I am currently consulting for a range of businesses ranging from management of their payroll systems to full book-keeping services. Can work remotely or on-site within 30 miles of Derby.

    Nicola was, quite simply, AMAZING. She responded quickly and efficiently to all my messages and completed the work in less than 24 hours. I asked Nicola to help me with a funding application grant which required a cash flow projection diagram as well as some other general income/expenditure help and she not only made excellent spreadsheets but also explained patiently to me what she had done (as I'm clueless with anything involving finance and I asked some really stupid questions). Thank you so much Nicola for helping me and making sure I wasn't stressed about anything! Will definitely employ her if I need to again :-)
