Virtual Assistant Services from J & L Secretarial

What is a Virtual Assistant?

A Virtual Assistant is a self employed professional that will provide office support to your business remotely. VAs have the skills of a PA, as well as qualifications and experience that has been gained in a range of different offices.

VAs are not temps or employees, but an independent freelancer, who will be able to cater to the needs of the individual, small business or a large corporation.

They will have tailored their services to support the client on a particular task or project. These can be one-off projects or a long term contract.

Do you need a VA?

If you answer yes to at least one of the following statements, then you could use a VA.

  • You need some extra support when workload increases.
  • You don't want the cost or commitment involved in employing staff.
  • You have periodic or seasonal projects that you don't want to delegate to temps.
  • You require only a few hours of support per day, week or month.
  • You need administration support that is not necessarily tied to normal 9-5 hours.

What are the benefits of using a VA?

  • A VA will perform all the time-consuming tasks that will then enable you to concentrate on expanding your business.
  • A VA will provide business support without disruption to your office or home.
  • A VA will work with you. If you employ temps, you need to train each one on your office practice.
  • A VA will assist a smaller business setting up and can therefore assist on an "as-needed" basis to relieve the burden.
  • A VA will relieve you of all the necessary paperwork that is involved with staff or temps, which means no PAYE, NI, holiday pay, sick pay, training, pensions or even lunch breaks!

You only pay for the services provided or hours worked.
