Kate Porteous - Virtual Assistant
My name is Kate Porteous and I am a Virtual Assistant. I set up my business almost a year ago now with the aim of saving other people's time by using mine. Small business and sole traders are very passionate about the product they sell or the service they provide and are increasingly frustrated by the time they have to take away from this passion to do their paperwork.

My name is Kate Porteous and I am a Virtual Assistant. I set up my business almost a year ago now with the aim of saving other people's time by using mine. Small business and sole traders are very passionate about the product they sell or the service they provide and are increasingly frustrated by the time they have to take away from this passion to do their paperwork. For most it's a boring necessity that ends up getting done in an evening or on the weekend and it eats into their work - life balance.
This is where I come in.
With a background in both the public and private sectors, I have worked with a variety of companies, large and small and have spent much of that time gaining valuable experience in administration. From being a museum curator for social history to securing orders and exporting goods to the Caribbean: from being a team coach to setting up an admin team in a fast developing department within Vodafone - I understand the need to be well organised, methodical, conscientious and trustworthy.
And, I have to admit I love paperwork! As a self confessed admin enthusiast, I take pleasure in creating order from chaos and sorting things out. My work motto is saving you time by using mine, so if you are struggling with your paperwork or resent taking time away from the real heart of your business, contact me on 0786 4619540 or Kate@KatePorteousVA.com
