OUR SERVICES · AVAILABLE FROM MAY 2026

Operational support that meets you where you are - and builds toward where you're going.

Four ways to work together, from a one-off audit to a full operational retainer.

Every engagement starts with the same question - what's actually holding you back?

WHERE TO BEGIN

Most founders come in needing one of four things.

You don't have to know which one yet. If you're not sure, book the discovery call and we'll figure it out together - no pressure, no sell.

Start with the audit

One week. A complete look under the hood. A written plan you can act on  with or without us.

Unstick a single problem

90 focused minutes, £150. For when you know what's wrong - you just need another pair of hands to fix it.

Get reliable hands-on support

Senior VA support at £35/hr. Use what you need, when you need it - no monthly commitment.

Embed us in your operations

A monthly retainer that scales with you - from stabilising chaos to running a proper ops function.

01

BUSINESS OPERATIONS AUDIT.     

Fixed fee · 5–7 working days · Credited to retainer

A proper look at how your business actually runs - with a plan to fix it.

The audit is where almost every engagement starts. We spend a week inside your business - calls, your own tools, a structured review of how work moves through the team - and come back with a written diagnosis. What's broken, why, and what to do about it.

02 

ADMIN POWER HOUR 90 min 

One-off · Same-week bookings

One stuck thing. Ninety minutes. Sorted by lunch.

A focused working session for the thing you keep meaning to fix. We come in, look at it together, and leave you with a tidy result, not a strategy document. Email inbox nuked. CRM tidied. A hiring template drafted. Whatever's been eating your Sunday.


03

VIRTUAL ASSISTANT SUPPORT

Ad-hoc · £35/hr · Min. 2 hrs · UK working hours

What we cover on ad-hoc hours

A senior VA on call - for the weeks you need one.

Flexible virtual assistant support, billed by the hour.

For founders who need a trusted pair of hands every now and then not every week.

Use us for a busy month, a product launch, maternity cover, or just to clear the decks before a holiday.

When the usage becomes regular, we'll talk about rolling it into a retainer

BUSINESS OPERATIONS RETAINER

Monthly · Rolling · From £750/ month

A trusted right-hand
who runs the business with you.

The retainer is the real work. We embed into your business, pick up the operational load, and build the systems that let you stop holding it all together in your head. Retainers start from £750/month. Scope and hours are agreed based on what your business actually needs. Book a discovery call and we'll talk through the right fit.

HOW WE WORK

Four stages. No mystery.

Most ops engagements fail because the expectations are muddy. Ours aren't. Here's the path from first call to steady-state  for every retainer client.

Step 1 - WEEK 0

Discovery call - 30 minutes, free. We work out whether we're the right fit and if not, we'll point you to who is.

Step 2 - WEEK 1

Audit - A week of structured review inside your business. Ends with a written plan you own outright.

Step 3 - WEEK 2

Kick off - Retainer starts. First month is always about stabilizing; inbox, calendar, the urgent fires.

Step 4 - MONTH 2+

Rhythm - Monthly reviews, quarterly check-ins, and steady progress against the plan. No surprises.

FREQUENTLY ASKED

Everything you'd ask on a first call.

Can't find your answer? Email info@hunteradmin.org — we reply within a day. No forms, no chatbots.

Can I skip the audit and go straight to a retainer?

Not usually. The audit gives us both a clear picture of what's actually going on in your business. Without it, we're guessing - and that's not a good starting point for either of us. The good news: the £395 fee is credited against your first retainer month, so you don't pay twice..

Are you a virtual assistant or an operations consultant?

Honestly, both - depending on what you need. Our Stabilise retainer is closer to a senior VA. Streamline and Scale move into operations lead territory. Most founders we work with want a mix of both: the day-to-day admin taken off their plate, and the right systems being built in the background at the same time.

What's the minimum commitment on a retainer?

One month. Rolling thereafter - no lock-ins. If it's not working after the first month, we part ways cleanly. If you need to pause for any reason, a quieter quarter, maternity, a sabbatical - we'll work it out. We just ask for 30 days notice of any changes.

Do you work with teams outside the UK?

Yes. Our core hours are UK-based, but we regularly support founders whose teams span Europe and the US. What we don't offer is 24-hour cover or overnight US support — that needs a different setup, and we'd rather tell you that upfront than overpromise.

Who owns the SOPs, documentation and systems you build?

You do. All templates, SOPs, dashboards and documentation are yours, in your tools. We don't hold anything hostage. If we part ways, you walk away with everything we've built.

What if I only need help for a project, not ongoing?

Then the audit, the Admin Power Hour, or a fixed-scope project engagement are all options worth considering. Fixed-scope projects are priced on request - just tell us what you're trying to solve. We don't push retainers on founders who don't need one.

Ready to build a business
with real structure behind it?

It starts with getting clear on exactly what's holding your operations back. The Business Operations Audit gives you a full picture of what needs to change — with a concrete action plan to move forward.
