Angela Anson –
Virtual PA
|
 |
Small
Office Support is a company that offers you
Virtual PA services with highly skilled,
self-employed individuals. It was created in
July 2007. I started with the acronym S.O.S
coming to your admin rescue and then fitted the
words Small Office Support to the acronym.
I offer Virtual PA services to both
individuals and larger organisations and I will
travel to Rotherham, Sheffield,
Barnsley, Doncaster and Worksop.
We
have the flexibility to work from our own home,
or in your office. Taking advantage of modern
technology and communications, we can work
together over the internet and
telephone.
I went to The University
of Sheffield as a mature student and really
enjoyed it. I stood for election to the staff
student committee which gave me the opportunity
to develop my negotiation skills, which is
always useful in the business world. One of my
many achievements in life was when I contacted
the Cabinet Office by email for a summer
placement in 2000. They requested my CV, which I
sent. Then I was invited to an interview at
H M Treasury. I got the job and applied all my
statistical analysis skills and economic theory.
I also learnt a lot about myself, living and
working in London.
I have driven a fire
engine.
I have worked in various
industries such as manufacturing, organising
events, mining, Local and National Government.
The larger organisations that I have worked for
have given me experience of a defined role
within the team. In the smaller organisations
you are on the front line fire fighting, being
called to do and think of
everything.
I am an active
member of the Barnsley & Rotherham Chamber
of Commerce where she is on the Women in
Business Board.
I am an honest,
enthusiastic person that likes to be organised
and get things done.

I
play the B flat Cornet in the local village
band.

to speak to you soon. angela@small-office-support.co.uk Mobile:

Clients

The following are links to some of our
clients and an outline description of the type
of service that Small Office Support has
provided for them in the
past.
Junction
Solutions – Virtual PA
www.junctionsolutions.co.uk
I am responsible for all the
administration of this company. This
involves giving introduction and presentation to
new starters and ordering telephones and
laptops, ensuring that all personal documents
are stored correctly and organising the lease of
cars for the consultants. I process the
monthly timesheets and expenses. I generate
weekly purchase order and sales invoices reports
for the director. Provide the accountant with
all relevant financial details upon request. Any
other administration task when requested. This
is done virtually from my office with a weekly
visit to this client’s
office.
Western Provident
Association WPA - Account
Manager
In order to do this job I needed to
attend an intensive training to qualify as an
Account Manager. This was due to the
confidential nature of the work. The main
tasks that I performed her were answering
enquiries from the public. This required
extensive knowledge of the products on offer and
all the qualifying requirements; checking
application forms when they arrived and request
or confirming further details; mail merging
letters with the contacts on our database and
making follow up calls after a targeted
marketing campaign. I also promoted this
company on a promotional stands at networking
events.
Random Acts
www.randomacts.ltd.co.uk
Project management
for the first ever 24 hour Music Hall event held
in September 2006. A summary of skills involved
were: talking to venue managers about our event
and our requirements. I arranged the printing
and distribution of leaflets and other publicity
material. I set up office procedures to record
the contents of all the shows. We set and
reviewed targets for ticket sales and production
meetings. I promoted the event in the local
press and on BBC Radio Sheffield. I booked
professional performers from London. I made
travel and accommodation arrangements. I defined
box office arrangements, designating and
supervised volunteers to them. I appeared in two
shows and we all had a good
time.
Dean Headland
www.deanheadland.co.uk
I typed an eight
page document using Excel with formula in to
record financial values. This is a good example
of virtual PA services. I typed this document as
he dictated it to me over the telephone. I then
saved it and emailed it to him. He checked it at
his end and printed it off. On another occasion
I went to his office to redesign it and set up
procedures to record client contracts in a more
efficient manner. This resulted in more
confirmed bookings and ease of paperwork flow
throw the office.
Matthew Blyden
www.beyondcomputers.co.uk
Matthew sent me a framework
for his customer satisfaction survey. I changed
the format and drafted specific questions that
were required to gain a fuller picture of the
satisfaction the customers of Beyond Computers
felt about the level of service offered by the
company and all their staff. This contract took
two hours to complete and was saved and emailed
back to the client.
I used the Quickbooks package to process
all invoices for the company. I had access to
the company bank account to perform bank reconciliations
and payments. I produced a VAT
report.
