Behind every great business is a great assistant

Formed in 2015 and incorporated in 2019, we’re a family-run, multi-award-winning team of dedicated Virtual Assistants.

Our story

When Jonathan started his first business, he was doing everything himself. He was working 90+ hours a week, wearing far too many hats and had very little time left for anything else.

Being a self-funded startup, he didn’t want to commit to hiring a full time employed assistant, but he understood that in order to grow his business, he couldn’t do it alone. He also realised that there were things that were beyond his own areas of expertise that required the experience of others.

Not only was he doing everything himself, he also experienced first-hand the struggle of trying to build a business as a dyslexic.

When Bethan came on board she picked up everything Jonathan couldn’t do. Although his partner rather than his assistant, Jonathan experienced first-hand the value of having an extra pair of hands to manage the things he didn’t have the time and skills for.

After trying to juggle work with a growing family, the couple identified a need for work that is fulfilling and rewarding, yet flexible enough to create a better work-life balance.

Jonathan had initially formed the business in 2015 offering design and marketing services as well as support with tech tasks. Bethan joined the business in late 2015, bringing her administrative, PA and property experience.

Realising that all these things (and more) could be done virtually, they combined their experience and rebranded to The Virtual Assistant Company to provide fundamental help for businesses and busy entrepreneurs, whilst offering a flexible and rewarding way of working.

Why we think virtual working
is a better way of working

Outsourcing offers a flexible working approach for both you and your assistant. For you, the business owner, working with a Virtual Assistant gives you the necessary experience and reliability you need without the commitment and costs of hiring an in-house employee.

For the assistant, home working offers flexibility, a better work-life balance, and removes time and money spent on commuting (not to mention the reduced carbon emissions).

Better performance

With an extra pair of hands and another set of skills and experience, your business can perform better.

Happy working

Home working offers flexibility and a better work-life balance for your assistant. Happy working, happy client.

Rewarding work

The role of a Virtual Assistant is an incredibly rewarding one. We love what we do, and it shows in our work.
