About Polished PA
Polished PA was set up to meet the needs of individuals and small businesses both in Rutland and Leicestershire and across the UK.
It provides professional virtual Personal Assistant (PA) services, either ad hoc or on a regular basis, to private individuals and small business owners, remotely ("virtually").
Polished PA was born to help people running their own business and private individuals who are so busy that they 'can't see the wood for the trees'.
Polished PA is about excellent service, proactively solving problems to deliver what you have requested.
Discretion, professionalism and attention to detail is paramount.
Expertise
I have many years experience as a PA in a number of settings, from PA to several headhunters and a Lord in a well-known business in London, through working for a private individual in a niche high-end country business, to Executive PA to a Group HR Director and Group Finance Director working in a large corporate. Since then I have worked in HR and in more senior roles, up to Chief Executive of a charity and not-for-profit.
I understand what is needed to be a great PA and how invaluable it can be to have access to someone whose responsibility is to make your life easier. Not only that but I understand HR and other areas of running a business well, so I can add more value.
Please get in touch to discuss your requirements. I have access to a network of other useful people who work on a part-time or ad hoc basis around the UK, please ask if there is something you need help with and if I cannot help, I will do my best to find someone who can.
