Administrative Support

Our administrative support service is a flexible administration service to keep your business running efficiently. Whether you are looking for regular ongoing administrative support, or simply on an ad hoc basis for particular projects such as mailing campaigns, or data entry projects we can either work with your existing administrative support team, or work as your administrative support team if you don’t already have one. Our helpful administrative support assistants can maintain an organised business and ensure consistent professional standards on all correspondence and documentation.

Why use our administrative support service?

There is no doubt that running a business creates a huge amount of administration every single day. Keeping on top of this can be challenging both in terms of finding the time to carry out all of these tasks and sometimes having the necessary skills. Ensuring you are up to date with your administration is important to help you work effectively in day to day business life – to be able to process orders, to promptly invoice your customers, keep on track of who has paid, to have your customer and supplier contact details easily available. Letting administration slide will soon have a negative impact on your business and before you know it you can feel that you are snowed under with all manner of tasks. Fear not, our administrative support team work with you make sure you stay on top of everything, creating an organised, stress-free working environment for you.

How does the administrative support service compare to employing an administrator?

For a start the service is completely flexible – meaning that if you want to use us for 20 hours one week and then don’t need to use us again for another 3 months that’s fine. We understand that running a business doesn’t always generate the same amount of administration every single week so employing someone for a fixed amount of hours each week may not always be the most natural fit for your business needs.
In short, if you need more hours one week, having a whole team in place rather than an individual ensures that we have the capacity to deliver, and on the other hand if you need much less then you only pay for the hours that you actually use, meaning that you are getting the service exactly when you need it and no more so you pay exactly the right amount making it a cost effective option.

Our administrative support service is available every single working day of the year, there is no need to think about holiday cover or sick pay.

Administrative support work is all carried out from our own head office, whilst you are at work in your own place of business. You won’t need to worry about the other ancillary costs of employing someone in addition to their salary, we don’t need a telephone, a computer, a desk, chair or any space at all. If you work from home, it also means that you don’t need to have anyone else working in your home, helping to keep your home life separate.
