Talent Agents

Do you need help managing your schedule, booking meetings, travel arrangements, and handling correspondence? Communicating with clients, casting directors, producers, and other industry professionals? Putting processes and procedures in place for your staff and talent? Tagmin data entry and chasing payment of your outstanding invoices.

Production Companies

I have the advantage of having worked with many production companies over the years. I can help your Producers and Production Managers with everything admin related, diary management, travel logistics, general admin support, project coordination, and distribution of call sheets.

Celebrities

Effective administration can be a game-changer for celebrities, allowing you to focus on your craft while ensuring that your day-to-day operations run smoothly. With dedicated administrative support, you can streamline your schedule, manage appointments, and coordinate travel arrangements without getting bogged down by logistics. This support also encompasses handling correspondence, liaising with agents, producers, and publicists, and organising events or appearances.

Business Owners

Administrative support plays a crucial role in helping businesses operate efficiently and effectively.  Managing tasks such as diary management, correspondence and data organisation, allows team members to focus on their core responsibilities and strategic initiatives. They streamline communication, ensure that important deadlines are met, and maintain organised records, ultimately contributing to improved productivity.

Pricing

Retainer Rates

£30 per hour

If you know you will need a certain number of hours each day, week or month, then I would recommend a retainer package which guarantees my time at £30 an hour.

Minimum 5 hours per week/month (£150) or any number of hours over 5 that you might require.

I’ll notify you when your hours are nearly up—no surprises! You’re welcome to adjust your hours (subject to availability), and any unused hours will expire after the period we agree upon at the start.

Ad hoc Rates

£35 per hour

If you only need ad hoc support, perhaps a one-off project, or are just trying out working with a Personal Assistant, rather than commit to a retainer.
