Hi!

I’m Kirstin and I established Vital Assistant in 2022.

Vital Assistant supports HR freelancers, consultants, coaches, fractional leaders and small businesses by taking on the admin tasks that free them to focus on clients and growth.

I offer help on an ad-hoc, project or retained basis.

You might not be at the stage where hiring an employee makes sense, but you still need that extra pair of admin hands to help you stay on top of existing clients, pursue new ones and move your growth plans forward.

My clients also benefit heavily from having a 'true partner' in their corner who understands what the 'day-to-day' reality of running a small business, because Vital Assistant is my own small business too.

Before founding Vital Assistant, I spent over six years in the corporate world supporting HR and HRIS leaders and HR Business Partners with HR administration, HR systems and HR analytics. That experience lends itself naturally to supporting independent HR professionals.

Prior to that, I spent nearly ten years as a teacher.

My personal motto has always been to leave an organisation in a better place than I found it and that's exactly what I aim to do for your business.

Let me work with you, learn your specific requirements and start easing the admin workload so you can focus on your clients and plans for your unique business.

From regular daily, weekly or monthly tasks to one-off pieces of work - e.g. updating and formatting an employee handbook, creating slide decks of your presentations, to creating an absence tracker, let me support you, freeing you up to concentrate on your valued clients.

I am a nerd. I admit it! I love processes, structure and creating order. I also possess pretty darn good Excel skills which my clients have often found extremely useful! The people I’ve worked with will testify to this! (check out my Linkedin)

You can pick up and put down support as needed, or choose a regular monthly retainer, ensuring you have my time set aside. Everyone's needs are different and it's about what works for you.

Whatever you need, I'm confident I can help. And if I’m not the right fit, I’ll always be honest and point you towards other sources of support.

If you’d like a relaxed preliminary chat, drop a note to hello@vitalassistant.co.uk and I’ll arrange a free 30‑minute no‑obligation call. You can also DM me directly on Linkedin.


Take care,

Kirstin
