What We Do

Simple, Powerful, Business Support

There’s nothing wrong doing your own admin and business tasks. After all, it’s one way to really know what’s happening in your business. But if you want your business to grow, you can’t do it all on your own. This is where Core PA Services can provide a big helping hand for small businesses.

You can delegate the recurring admin tasks that take up most of your time, allowing you to focus clearly on your business without distractions.

Admin Support

Do you have one or two tasks that really get in your way every week, but thought it’s not enough to employ someone for?

    • Email Management
    • Diary Management
    • Arrange Meetings
    • Travel Coordination
    • On-board Clients
    • Create, edit and format documents
    • Ad-hoc Administrative Tasks
    • And many other tasks

This list is not exhaustive. If you have something else you would like to delegate, please contact us and let’s discuss how we can help.

Specialist Support

Every client requires support in a different way. While clients ask us to handle many of the tasks listed under ‘Admin Support,’ there are a number who also require further specialist support, such as:

    • Company secretarial support
    • Minute Taking
    • Credit Control
    • HR Support
    • Event Administration
    • Social Media and Marketing

Our detailed discussions with clients are to ensure we clearly understand your requirements. This enables us to provide you with a Virtual Assistant who has the expertise to support your business growth.

Lifestyle Support

Did you know, as well as carrying out a whole range of admin support work, a Virtual Assistant (VA) can also help with the equally important and time-consuming personal tasks?

A VA can:

    • Research the market for annual renewals, e.g. insurance and utility contracts
    • Set up home filing systems
    • Research and source gifts for birthdays, anniversaries etc.
    • Manage contractors and suppliers
    • Plus a whole lot more…

A VA providing ‘Lifestyle Management’ can help in two ways:

    1. As with business tasks, looking after some of your personal tasks keeps your mind clear to focus on your client facing work
    2. Frees up more of your personal time, allowing you to truly relax with family and friends

Virtual Assistant services for small businesses doesn’t need to stop at the office door… VA support can save you time in your home life as well.

NED Support

Are you an experienced Non-Executive Director looking to expand your portfolio and have too many potential roles dropping into your inbox?

Or…

Are you a new, or aspiring, NED looking to gain your first appointment or to build your portfolio?

You probably don’t need us to tell you that there are many NEDs looking at the same positions you are. At the same time, there are plenty of opportunities out there, in fact one of our clients told us he received 82 potential roles in one week!

Even if you are getting far fewer responses than this, to check for one suitable role takes time. But can you imagine trawling through 82?

It would seriously impact your existing work if you had to check each option properly, meaning the likelihood of missing your ideal role is pretty high.

And this is before you start actually researching the roles you are particularly interested in.

Within our portfolio of Virtual Assistant services for small businesses, our NED Portfolio Builder is a service designed to take the ‘hard yards’ out of sifting through the myriad of roles out there and presenting you a concise summary of those that match your ideal criteria.

How can we help you find your next NED role?

Having a solid knowledge of our client’s criteria, we sift out all those roles that are obviously not suitable and add them to a report with a short sentence explaining this decision.

We then create a “maybe” pile. This is where the role doesn’t strictly adhere to the criteria but there is a specific reason it might be of interest to our client.

We will highlight these with the reasoning behind it and ask if our client wants a report.

Now we are then left with the roles that we think our client might be interested in applying for. These are added to the report with a quick explanation of our decision.

If our client agrees, we will produce a full report on each role and the company. This will include high level financials, news, PR, any litigation etc. We also detail previous NEDs and whether there is a set tenure for the role, e.g. 3 years.

If this is a service you may be interested in, please get in touch.

We will be more than happy to answer your questions and provide you with a draft sample report.
