About

Providing a professional administrative support service on a remote basis.

Vital Assets was set up to provide a remote administrative support service that was flexible and professional to businesses that need that little extra bit of help, without costing the earth.  We have all experienced times when there are not enough hours in the day and an extra pair of hands would have made all the difference, especially if month end is looming or a project deadline is hanging over your head.  Often these situations only require some intervention for a couple of hours.

So how can we help you?  If you answer yes to any of the following questions then I suspect you could use our help.

Do you suffer from constant interruptions and distractions?

Would you like more time to grow the business and improve cash flow?

Would you like to spend less time on the routine tasks?

Do you need some administration support but can’t justify employing another person?

Do you feel you don’t have enough hours in the day?

So now you think you might need us, why work with Vital Assets?

There are some valuable benefits;

Cost effective - this solution is key as you are only paying for the time the task takes to complete.  You don’t have any HR issues like PAYE/NI or pension contributions to consider.

Grow your business - by outsourcing your administration tasks it gives you the time to concentrate on growing the business.

Flexibility - the service can be provided on an ad hoc or regular basis just as you require.  This means you can have that extra help during the busy times without having to employ more staff.

A virtual assistant is able to provide professional administrative support service remotely without the need for them to set foot in your office.  This means you can have that extra help without having to provide a desk or equipment.  Your assistant would normally work from a home office for a number of clients, but may also be able to provide onsite support if required.

As a virtual assistant is an independent contractor employed for their services you are not responsible for any of the normal things covered by HR such as PAYE/NI or pension contributions.

With a full range of services available you can choose exactly what suits your requirements.  The services are charged by the hour or by a retainer package.
