WHO THIS IS FOR

This is for you if:

  • Admin is overwhelming and you need help getting it under control
  • You can’t justify (or don’t want) an employee but need consistent support
  • You work better with structure and accountability
  • You want flexible options that fit how you actually work
  • You value honest, straightforward communication

WHY WORK WITH ME

I’ve been running businesses for over 15 years I used to do everything manually until I realised there was a more efficient way to manage the admin tasks that actually matter. Combined with 25+ years in office management and administration, I know what actually works – not just in theory, but in practice too.

I find new ways to do things I inherently look for ways to improve efficiency. Whether that’s transitioning from manual processes to automated systems, or questioning “why do we do it this way?” and exploring whether there’s a better approach for your business.

I work in the background I thrive working behind the scenes. While you focus on your clients and what you do best, I’ll work away on your business operations, keeping everything running smoothly.

Neurodivergent perspective Being AuDHD (autistic with ADHD) means I observe and navigate the business world differently. I often present solutions in ways people haven’t considered, with methodical approaches and genuine attention to detail.

Hampshire based and fully remote Although I am based in Fareham, Hampshire, I work with sole traders and small businesses across the UK via email and Teams. No need to provide me with workspace or equipment!
