"Tamsin has worked for me for around three years (2017 to 2020).I am based in Glasgow and she is based in Plymouth, however, despite this, Tamsin has managed all of my requirements and exceeded my expectations consistently. My role involved many different business areas necessitating challenging diary commitments and international travel, this was never a problem for Tamsin and she was exceptional at understanding and managing priorities.As an extension of her role, Tamsin also took on additional secretariat responsibilities for many senior governance forums - I cannot recall any occasion where these critical administration tasks were not captured and fulfilled with anticipated accuracy and efficiency.It was regular for Tamsin to volunteer for additional responsibilities, when appropriate, and she always approached these with determination and tenacity.A refreshing honesty and humour that can be so important in such a role, I would certainly have no hesitation in recommending Tamsin."
"Tamsin worked with me as my PA/secretary from1996 through to 2016 in a fast moving financial/insurance business.This involved both corporate and capital venture environment challenges in which Tamsin excelled in her ability to support both myself and the management team to deliver business goals.She has a wide and knowledgeable range of IT skills covering all that is required to support people and businesses. Tamsin has the ability and experience to effectively handle day-to-day issues and to organize/run an office to very high standards of performance and effectiveness.I have no hesitation in recommending Tamsin to any business or organisation."
"Tamsin was my personal assistant for a number of years at Cigna.She was always organised, thinking two steps ahead.She is totally reliable and trustworthy and I would not hesitate to hire her again if the chance arose."
"Tamsin has been helping me with marketing and getting a presence on Social Media after I took the plunge and went self-employed last year.She is lovely to work with; very enthusiastic and hard-working. Coming up with fab new ideas/posts on a regular basis. I would highly recommend Tamsin to help you out with any admin jobs you just do not have the time to do.The more you can delegate, the more you can concentrate on the business and generating income. Keep up the good work Tamsin. "
"Tamsin organised my work life and the work-life of my colleagues on our Centre Management Team for many years from when I joined the company in the early 2000s. Keeping us all very true and honest.Unfortunately, business changes have dispersed us all to the winds, but if you need a Virtual Assistant I can't think of a better person to recommend!"
"I have recently used the services of Tamsin and I am absolutely thrilled with the results. I sell and tutor people with small courses which I have written myself, I've used Tamsin service to have my courses professional set out checked and had logos and links added as I just don't have time and the skills to do the extra that's needed. Tamsin asked me for a brief and looked in to the layout and type of business I am to come up with the style that suits my business. She nailed it, I am so pleased. Tamsin was easy to work with very efficient and made sure I was always completely happy. I would and do recommend Tamsin to any small business who is need of a Virtual Assistant. Thank you Tamsin."
Tamsin worked with me for nine months. She came in as long term sick cover for my PA. She had masses to learn and take on in a very short space of time in relation to my two businesses and she rose to the challenge. My businesses were also in a huge growth period with new clients and projects. Work is extremely fast paced but she coped with it all. She liaised well with all parties and managed diaries and projects for myself and team members.She developed her admin skills further and worked extremely hard. She also implemented a really good working system by using Trello which we have continued to use and it helps us see easily where we are with each client/project.She is very hardworking and professional and I would certainly recommend Tamsin and her VA services.
"Tamsin has saved my stress levels from exploding. I run a very busy practice and her expertise in admin has made my life so much easier. I am worried what will happen now, if she dares to go on holiday. She is professional and confidential which is exactly what I needed 🙂 I researched a few Virtual Assistants and Tamsin was more expensive than some but she works much faster than most so it all balances out. I believe in the saying if you pay for peanuts, you get Monkeys. I am super pleased and know I am getting excellent value, no peanuts for me!"
Tamsin has been a great help to my small business! Hassle free help that really eases the pressure of the day to day tasks! Tamsin also brings her knowledge and good ideas of how to run things more smoothly! Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a helping hand!

It took a while to stop checking ...now I walk out my front door because my phone pings, and all I have to worry about is preparing for a meeting somewhere in a city in another country.
What else needs to be said... if you don't want to think about stuff you haven't got time to do, contact Tamsin!

"Tamsin has worked with me, to date, as my confidential Virtual Assistant on two highly sensitive workplace investigations for a household name client. In that capacity, Tamsin has taken responsibility for the transcription of around 20 investigation interviews, from audio recording to written record, with the highest professional standards of accuracy and presentation. Tamsin has also undertaken a number of other administrative tasks for me, in support of delivering the investigation reports to deadline.
I have found Tamsin warm, efficient and straightforward to work with. She very quickly picked up the professional requirements of my work and has been able to help me with improved suggestions for data and file handling. Tamsin’s role with me requires me to place a high degree of trust in her; not only is the work she undertakes for me highly confidential but she also has access to confidential passwords and payment facilities. I have no hesitation in recommending Tamsin as a VA; she is prompt to respond and her work is of the highest standard. "

"Before partnering we simply didn’t have enough time to manage essential admin tasks, which were piling up and taking me away from where I needed to be focused. We initially started working with Tamsin, who took on a wide range of tasks, including sending press releases, updating our website and social media, managing travel bookings, handling expenses. This has not only made my life easier but has also improved efficiency for the whole team. The difference has been significant, and I feel a real sense of relief knowing that things are being handled professionally and reliably. For any entrepreneur considering virtual assistance, my advice is simple: go for it! It’s been one of the best decisions for our business"
