VIRTUAL ASSISTANT SUPPORT · ONGOING RETAINER

Your right hand —
without the
full-time hire.

A consistent, reliable VA who knows your business - handling the inbox, the calendar, the follow-ups, and the dozen small things you keep meaning to do. So you can stop firefighting and start leading.

From £275/month · No long-term contracts · 30 days' notice to up- or down-size

WHY A VA

You didn't start a business
to spend your week in your inbox.

But here you are — Tuesday morning, three hundred unread, a calendar that's been double-booked twice this week, and a to-do list that quietly rewrites itself every night.

A Hunter Admin VA isn't a stranger you outsource the messy bits to. We learn how you work, build a few small systems around the chaos, and quietly start handling the things that don't need your brain on them.

The result: fewer fires. More headspace. A team that knows what's happening — including you.


WHAT'S INCLUDED

Six things off your plate -
starting week one.

Most retainers cover all six. The mix flexes month-by-month as your business shifts — busier launch month? More client-comms time. Quieter quarter? More systems work.

Inbox & email

Triage, reply on your behalf in your voice, and keep the inbox clear. Drafted replies waiting for you on the things only you can answer.


  • Daily triage
  • Templated replies
  • Follow-ups & chase-ups

Tasks & coordination

The list of small things you keep meaning to do — sorted, owned, and moved through. Plus chasing the rest of the team for what they owe you.


  • Project task tracking
  • Internal chase-ups
  • Status reporting

Documents & admin

Proposals, contracts, expense logging, file organisation, the bits that make your life feel held together. Templated where we can, manual where we need.


  • Proposals & contracts
  • Expense & receipt logging
  • File & folder hygiene

Calendar & scheduling

Booking, rescheduling, agendas, prep notes, the lot. We protect your focus blocks and stop the calendar from leaking.


  • Booking & rescheduling
  • Prep packs for meetings
  • Focus-block protection

Client & supplier comms

Onboarding, off-boarding, supplier follow-ups, and the polite-but-firm chase emails nobody wants to write. In your voice, on your timeline.


  • Onboarding sequences
  • Supplier follow-ups
  • Invoice & payment chases

The dozen small things

Booking the train, prepping the deck, reformatting the spreadsheet, finding that supplier you used in 2023. The things that don't fit a category but still eat your week.


  • Travel & logistics
  • Light research
  • Personal admin overflow

RETAINER & PRICING

One retainer that
grows with the business.

WHO IT'S FOR

Honest about who
we work best with.

A VA retainer isn't right for everyone. Here's where we shine and where you'd genuinely be better off somewhere else.

Right fit


  • You're running a team of 2–20 people and operations are starting to creak.
  • You've outgrown informal systems - sticky notes, group chats, founder memory.
  • You want a consistent right hand, not a rotating cast of freelancers.
  • You'd rather invest £275/month than hire and train a junior PA.

X - Probably not


  • You need a one-off project done and gone — try the Audit instead.
  • You're looking for the cheapest VA possible — we're not it.
  • You want a hands-off agency model with no founder time required.
  • You haven't started the business yet — come back when you're trading.

QUESTIONS WE GET ASKED

Everything you'd reasonably
want to know.

And if there's something here we haven't covered - just ask. We'll reply, in plain English, within a working day.

What does 'no long-term contract' actually mean?

It means exactly what it says. The retainer rolls month-by-month — you can up-size, down-size, pause or end with thirty days' notice. No annual lock-in, no minimum term, no penalty fees. The relationship lasts as long as it's earning its place.

How do I know how many hours I need?

Most founders start at the £275/mo level and adjust after the first month. We track time honestly each week, send you a weekly summary, and have a proper conversation at the end of month one about whether to size up, hold, or scale back. The Audit (if you take it) gives us both a sharper starting estimate.

Can I really up- or down-size whenever?

Yes — with thirty days' notice, in either direction. Big launch month coming up? Add hours. Going on a six-week sabbatical? Pause. Quieter quarter? Drop a tier. We'd rather have a rolling, honest retainer than one you resent paying for.

Who actually does the work?

A named VA from our team, matched to your business, supported by Gemma and the wider team for cover and quality control. You're not playing telephone with a different person each week — you have one human who learns your voice and your business.

Is my data and inbox secure?

Yes. We're UK-based, fully insured (PolicyBee), GDPR-compliant, and we use named password managers and shared-vault tools — never sticky-note logins. Every team member signs an NDA and a confidentiality agreement before they touch your accounts.

What's the difference between this and the Operations Audit?

The Audit (£395) is a one-off deep-dive that diagnoses what's broken and gives you an action plan — useful even if you never take a retainer. The retainer is the ongoing 'and now we actually do it' part. Most clients do the Audit first; the £395 is then credited to your first retainer month.

Do you sign NDAs?

Always — both ways. Standard confidentiality runs through every retainer agreement, and we're happy to sign your NDA on top of ours if that's how your business operates.

What if it's not working?

Tell us. We'll have an honest conversation, fix what we can, or part ways with thirty days' notice. We'd rather end a retainer cleanly than drag a relationship that's not earning its place.


READY WHEN YOU ARE

Get your week back —
starting with a 30-minute call.

Free, no agenda beyond working out whether we're the right fit. If a retainer isn't what you need, we'll tell you that — and point you at what is.
