Expertly matched VAs for your business

Hey—I’m Emma, an award-winning Virtual Assistant and your personal VA matchmaker.

With years of experience as a business owner, I truly understand the challenges of managing everything—from hitting goals to impressing clients. It’s easy to feel stretched too thin.

A virtual assistant can be the solution—but finding the right one takes time and effort.

That’s where I come in. I specialise in matching business owners with their ideal assistants.

No more sorting through profiles. No more guessing who’s the right fit.

Just a tailored match with trusted UK VAs who handle the tasks that slow you down—so you can get back to what matters most: growing your business.

Why choose my VA matching service?

Personalised matching

Whether you know what you need or need help figuring it out, I work with you to pinpoint your key support areas. Simply fill out a quick form or hop on a FREE no-obligation call, and I’ll handpick the best VA for you. If I don’t have the right match on my team, I’ll find them for you.

Simplified VA hiring

Running a business is busy enough—you don’t have time to sift through endless applications. I take care of all that. After your enquiry, you could meet your carefully matched VA within two days. It’s fast, efficient, and effortless, freeing up more time for what really matters.

Only the best VAs

I prioritise quality. Every VA I work with has passed a rigorous screening, has at least five years of experience, and is professionally insured. Only the top 6% of applicants make it to my panel, so you’re assured of working with the best.

Flexible, tailored support

With options for monthly retainer or one-off projects, you can choose the level of support that works best for you. Plans are flexible, allowing you to adjust your retainer hours month-by-month to meet your changing business needs.

  • I am so pleased that I came across Emma as otherwise I never would've found my amazing VA Emily. I explained to Emma exactly what I needed and she delivered! Emily has only been with me for a short time but I already could not manage without her and she has fitted into my business perfectly. Emily is everything Emma promised and more. I couldn't be happier with Emma's professional service from start to finish. Thank you so much.

    — Dani Thomas, Virtuoso Luxury Private Travel Expert

  • We highly recommend Emma and her team to anyone looking to outsource elements of their business and free up much-needed time. Emma very quickly matched us with our brilliant virtual assistant, Tanya - and now we couldn’t be without her. She’s made a huge difference to the day-to-day running of our giftware business and has a wealth of administrative expertise. We can now focus on creating new collections, develop new partnerships and feel a lot more productive as a result.

    — Sarah Edmonds, Sarah Edmonds Illustration Ltd

  • We recently sourced a VA through Emma’s company. The experience was personalised, friendly and very efficient. We particularly liked the shortlisting and being able to interview different candidates to get a match. We’re very happy with our choice and highly recommend Emma if you need VA support or other such services. Brilliant stuff!

    — Rebecca Fitzgerald, StrawberrySocial Ltd

  • Working with Emma was so easy, and I was delighted with the service. Emma matched me with Danielle who is literally my sanity saviour! Danielle is so flexible that she has fit right into the chaos which is my ND world. I can not recommend Emma and Danielle enough!

    — Amy Bell, Teal Compliance Limited

  • Emma’s VA matching service was perfectly seamless. Emma understood my needs and matched me with a brilliant VA.

  • From the initial call, through the scoping discussions, right through to the placement of our fantastic VA Gemma - we have been delighted with the service we have had from Emma and her VA Matchmaking Service. The difference Gemma has made to the business has been a game changer for us. Thank you Emma.

    — Scott Rimmer, Maverick Associates

  • Emma matched me with 3 potential VAs and gave me a good insight into each of their skill sets, she also provided a specific recommendation for who she felt would be best to support me, which was really helpful. The speed and efficiency with which everything gets dealt with and responded to by Emma and my VA is great. I would definitely recommend Emma and her business.

    — Sophie Tully, Nutrition Scientist and Health Coach

  • We worked with Emma who found us an amazing personal assistant who we can work with virtually. This has really helped our organisation and been a perfect solution.

    — Alyson McGregor MBE, Altogether Better

  • I had the pleasure of working with Emma to find a new VA to take over from my previous assistant. The customer service was exceptional, and the entire process was seamless and stress-free. Emma made sure to understand my specific needs and matched me with Zoe, who has been fantastic. I’m very pleased with the ease of finding a new VA and the excellent support provided throughout the process. Highly recommend Emma’s VA matchmaking service to anyone looking for a VA!

    — Rob Brown, Accounting Influencers Limited

  • Great service and a lot of support throughout the on-boarding process and even months into the partnership of working with our new VA. The VA we are working with is also fantastic and things are going very well.

    — Tom Edgar, BDA London

  • I would usually find a personal referral for VA support, but in haste, I found Emma's services online. Emma was extremely efficient in both responding and quickly understanding my needs, and then in connecting me to Sarah who has been a superb support for the past few months. In addition to the all-round excellent and professional service (both Emma in managing the contracting and Sarah in the VA support), I also appreciate having my team in my timezone, having a VA who's experienced working with my level of clients and their contexts, and the ability to flex the level of support up and down according to my needs. I certainly recommend Emma's VA matchmaking services.

How my VA matching service works

  1. Tell me what you need: Fill out a quick form or schedule a free consultation. I’ll help you figure out the tasks you need support with to maximise your productivity.

  2. Handpicked VAs: I carefully match you with a VA who fits your business needs, work style, and personality, ensuring a smooth working relationship from day one.

  3. Meet your match: Jump on a no-obligation call with your VA to ensure it’s a good fit. Not quite right? No problem—I’ll provide more options until we find “the one.”

  4. Start working: Once you’re happy, we’ll agree terms and onboard you. Your VA can then start taking tasks off your plate so you can focus on growing your business.
