If you are a Not-for-Profit (NFP), Charity or a small business and you rely on precise and factual record-keeping then having a Secretariat is crucial.

There are a lot of tasks and responsibilities involved in managing a NFP and if you’re relying on volunteers, systems and processes can be unreliable. It’s essential to have someone who can help run the daily administrative side of your organisation.

If you’re wanting to grow the organisation i.e. memberships, followers and subscribers, and foster a professional brand, you need someone who can assist in giving you that extra support.

As a Virtual Assistant that specialises in Secretariat, I can help you with the following:

• Being your front-line office without the costs and responsibilities of employees and premises.
• Answering calls, responding to emails, and dealing with mail.
• Managing enquiries, databases, subscriptions and renewals.
• Preparing Newsletters for distribution.
• Co-ordinating meetings, minuting meetings and preparing agendas.
• Assisting with the promotion of events.
• Assisting with Social Media and Website content.
• Managing Social Media.

Virtual Assistants like myself, are business owners. We provide our own office space, software and equipment. We invoice for an agreed number of hours per month plus any additional expenses such as postage, stationery and travel costs.
