What we do

Practical support for the work that keeps piling up.

Start with the work costing you the most time. Add more only when it helps.

Executive assistant (EA) and virtual assistant (VA) mean the same thing here: the same senior support, delivered remotely.

Why this model

The case for an independent EA over a hire.

Senior experience, by the hour
Buy the experienced hours you need, rather than a junior role you need to fill.

In their words

“Two years ago, we cautiously entered the VA world, with our first experience being with Christine. It couldn't have gone better. She quickly understood our business needs and in no time was efficiently working through our backlog of tasks with minimal input from me. We outsourced with Christine for two years, and we couldn't be happier with how it's went. She's proven to be extremely trustworthy, reliable, intuitive, and efficient. I wouldn't hesitate to use Christine's services again in the future.”

How we work

  1. 01

    Discovery call

    Thirty minutes on where your time goes and whether support would help.

  2. 02

    We agree the tasks, handling rules and hourly block, then document the handover.

  3. 03

    Start working together

    Weekly check-ins, monthly reporting and flexible hours.

Next step

Let's work out what you should stop doing.

A short discovery call, no pitch. We'll talk through where your week is going and whether support would actually help, including saying so if it wouldn't.
