Name: Rachel
Area of expertise: Virtual Assistant – emails, calendars, admin and as a client told me recently ‘gets my sh*t together!’. I will hold you accountable and make sure tasks are done.
When & why did you join Get Ahead: I joined Get Ahead in November 2023, a few months after taking the leap into the freelance world as I wanted to be part of a team and connect with likeminded business people.
What did you do before you joined Get Ahead:
I am a Virtual Assistant and run my own business, alongside bringing up my son who recently started nursery. Get Ahead was an opportunity I couldn’t ignore as they offer collaborate and support other businesses which is something I value as a business owner. Why wouldn’t I want to be part of their team!
Career highlight to date:
March 2021 starting my career as a VA it was both exciting and scary, but I absolutely love my job. One highlight I love to share is helping a client’s son who was looking for an internship after finishing his degree but not getting the internship he had his eye on. I did some research and found a selection of suitable options with a couple of wildcards thrown in to see what he would like. Well the wildcare won, and he is now completing his first year of police detective training!
Plans for the future:
Build my business further and work with some amazing people!
I really want to visit Japan – I have been planning it since Covid!
