I started my business without a name, and as I pondered it, a new client said “I need someone in my corner, a Wingwoman!” And that just seemed to sum up what I wanted to offer.

Rebecca Nicholson - Founder

A Wingwoman’s most important skills are resourcefulness, flexibility and a can-do attitude – if we don’t know how, we’ll find out!

As specialists in HR minute taking, we offer a reliable and rapid turnaround of accurate meeting notes, understanding the importance that these hold.

However, our extensive task list means that we also support with business presentations, proofreading, research, diary management, event bookings, gift sourcing and much more.

In recent years, Virtual Assistant has become a recognised term – however, we are very much ‘real’, offering all the tasks and more that you would expect from an Executive Assistant, business/lifestyle PA or freelance business support person.

We work at all levels, aiming to offer a service that means you can feel comfortable that you are outsourcing tasks to someone who cares about your business and reputation.  We’ll take on whatever you need us to – be it business or life admin – whatever allows you to focus your attention where it needs to be. Our founder has a background in operational management, incorporating recruitment, marketing and HR, so these are areas where we can add particular value.

We pride ourselves on needing minimal instruction – our job is to make your life easier – but equally, we’d rather check in that we understand exactly what you need where necessary, especially as we get to know you. We like to get on with it – but done properly and to a standard we’re proud of.

The best way is to tell us what you want to achieve, and what’s getting in the way. Ideally, we can give you some quick wins and then seek to add value from there, spotting opportunities and letting you spend your time where it’s most valuable.

It’s important we get to know how you like to work. What we hear regularly is that clients want someone they can trust, and as that builds, there are usually far more tasks that we can help with – including being a sounding board, suggesting new processes and even strategy planning.

You can send us work via email, Trello, a phone call, a Zoom, WhatsApp – whatever works best for you.

Every minute spent on tasks is logged on Toggl, an online time tracker, so you can see exactly what we’ve been working on and how long it took.

Our standard contract simply requests 48 hours’ notice to cease services, so you’re not tied in and of course there are none of the costs of having an employee.

We have our own liability insurance and are fully ICO registered.

You simply pay our monthly invoice for the hours worked – that’s the joy of a Virtual Assistant.

Hourly Minute taking rate £40
