Hire a virtual assistant and get your week back.
Executive assistants, admin support and operations staff in the Philippines, South Africa and Myanmar, working your hours as part of your team. We arrange their employment and handle the payroll and compliance.
The usual mistake is waiting until you are too busy to explain the job. Hand over early, while you still have time to train.
What a virtual assistant actually takes off you.
Virtual assistant, executive assistant, personal assistant, admin support, back-office help. The job title matters less than the list of things you keep meaning to get to.
Inbox and diary
Sorting what matters from what does not, booking and moving meetings, and making sure you arrive at each one knowing who you are talking to.
Executive and personal assistant work
Travel, expenses, board papers, follow-ups from meetings and the quiet chasing that keeps a senior person's commitments from slipping.
Data entry, records and back-office work
Keeping your CRM, spreadsheets and systems current, which nobody enjoys and everybody needs, done properly rather than in a panic once a quarter.
Operations and process admin
Onboarding paperwork, supplier chasing, order processing and the hundred small steps between a customer saying yes and being properly set up.
Research and reporting
Pulling together the information you need before a decision, and the weekly report you currently build yourself on a Friday evening.
Customer and supplier follow-up
The emails and calls that need to happen but keep sliding down your list, handled on your behalf and in your tone of voice.
Which country for a virtual assistant?
Admin work is the most flexible of all the roles we staff, so for most clients the choice comes down to hours and budget.
A very large pool of experienced Filipino assistants with clear, neutral English and years of practice supporting Australian, US and UK businesses. For most clients looking for a virtual assistant, this is where we start.
Choose South Africa when the role is client-facing: answering your phone, speaking to your customers or representing you directly. Native English speakers in the UK working day.
University-educated professionals in the Singapore working day, and the best value of our three hubs. Capable well beyond data work: executive support, operations and the running of a process end to end.
What to hand over first, and what to keep.
Right for an assistant
Still your own job
The one habit that decides whether this works: record a short screen video the first time you explain a task. Our assistants build their own written process from it, and you never explain it twice.
