Virtual Assistant UK – Services​

I help small companies, non-profits and private individuals who value the support of an experienced PA or administrator, but may not need someone full-time. I work remotely from my home office in Suffolk, close to the Norfolk border, supporting clients based primarily in London, as well as elsewhere in the UK and internationally.

Whether you have a particular project or process that could be handled more efficiently, or you’re looking for wider-ranging support to make life feel easier, I can work in a way that’s tailored to you. With over twenty years’ experience, I’ve supported a diverse range of people and businesses, from opera singers and brand consultants to web developers, music promoters and educational travel companies. I also help busy individuals with personal admin and lifestyle tasks.

I have particular experience in the following sectors:

Coaching
Media Training
Risk Management

I’m a Virtual Assistant who brings integrity, experience and a genuine commitment to the people I work with. If there’s something new to me, I’m usually happy to get to grips with it. I’m continually building my skills so I can be as helpful and adaptable as possible, including developing my knowledge of AI and incorporating it into some areas of my work.

My Expertise​

01.

Executive Assistant / PA

The role of a trusted assistant remains as valuable as ever. I can get to know you, work alongside you for the long term and become a dependable part of your business brand. Someone you can trust to represent you professionally, action your to-do list and free you from distractions – giving you the energy to focus on what you do best.

Email handling, diary management; meeting arrangements; travel & itinerary; project management; client & associate liaison; interviews; event planning and facilitating; lifestyle management & personal admin.

Administrator

An often-overlooked role? You may be happy to manage your own inbox, diary and travel, but running a business (or life!) comes with plenty of “Boring Stuff”. For small businesses working with larger global companies, procurement, onboarding and compliance can be lengthy. I take care of the detail and keep things organised behind the scenes.

AI automations, documents, processes, contracts; e-signature (DocuSign, Signaturely); spreadsheets; surveys; CRM (Capsule); team & project coordination (Monday.com, Trello); e-learning course creation (TalentLMS).

03.

Finance Support

Online and app banking have made payments easier, yet checking, paying and recording invoices still take time. It’s easy to lose track of what’s coming in and going out. I manage day-to-day financial admin, invoice generation and payments, while acting as the link between you and your bookkeeper, accountant or payroll provider.

Payments; banking; invoicing (QuickBooks, e-conomic); procurement; chase overdue invoices; manage subscriptions & insurance; facilitate vat returns & end of year accounts; financial review & reporting.

04.

Marketing Coordinator

Sourcing, briefing and managing graphic designers, video editors and social media managers is another set of plates for today’s business owners to keep spinning. I can coordinate your marketing activity, making sure everything stays on track and maintains momentum — or simply handle the tasks myself when specialists aren’t needed.

Website edits (WordPress); visual content (Canva, GIMP); email marketing (Mailchimp); video uploads (Vimeo); presentations (PowerPoint); write content; LinkedIn & social media; coordinate marketing projects.

05.

HR Assistant

Whether you employ a small workforce or mainly work with freelancers and associates, there’s often a lot of people management to do. From onboarding new people and coordinating availability to keeping track of contracts, expenses and payments, I’m able to keep communication flowing and make sure the necessary admin is taken care of.

Manage employees, associates & freelancers; recruitment; contracts; pay salaries; log leave; HR apps (BreatheHR).

06.

Researcher

Business owners and busy people benefit from having a ‘go-to’ person who can help move ideas forward, find answers and work through the occasional conundrum. As a creative and proactive problem-solver, I enjoy research and analysis. If a task starts with the words How, Find, Explore or Compare, I’m likely to enjoy tackling it.
