My Virtual Personal Assistant

The support you need, when you need it

My name is Michelle Jamieson and I am a Virtual Assistant.

What that means, is that I can look after your business needs from my remote office, giving you more time to concentrate on the bigger demands of your company.

Often we get so bogged down in administration and the day to day running of a business that it is hard to find the time to concentrate on furthering the business, meeting potential clients or just having some much needed time at home. That’s where I come in, let me take the administration away and give you the time back.

I am a Virtual Assistant with over 15 years experience supporting business directors, Finance Directors and assisting with running busy offices, right from start up companies to larger Enterprises.

I can create time for you by taking the administration out of your day, all from my remote office in York, or if you need me to, I can come to you!

I can save you money by providing cost effective support as and when you need it, no expensive monthly salary, PAYE or NI costs here, just pay as you go, either hourly or a set project fee.

When York Instruments Ltd went into administration in September 2019 and therefore my role as the Office Manager/Accounts & PA came to end, I found myself wondering how to follow on from a role that I had truly loved working in. Instead of trying to find a job that dosen’t exist, because the one I had held at York Instruments was made by me.

I was originally recruited to be the office administrator, but I quickly took on more responsibility (such as accounts, payroll and recruitment), I enjoed the fact that it utilised all my skills and no day was the same. I started with the company at its inception, helping put into place new processes and procedures, assisting with the recruitment of the team and being involved in the whole day to day running of the company that had 43 members of staff when it finally came to an end. Where do you go from this type of role!

So I decided to take the leap of faith and start My Virtual Personal Assistant. I learnt so much about new business procedures from my time at York Instruments after all. I feel that with the expertise I gained in that role, along with the experience I gained over the last 15 years of my career, meant I have so much I can offer in the way of administrative support/HR administration/accounts preparation and payroll to list just a few of my skills.

I truly believe I can make a real difference to any business that is struggling with finding the time in the day to get the “admin” done. I am competitively priced and flexible in my approach so get in touch if you would like to be given back more time in your day.
