About Jane

Jane HayHaving more than 20 years experience working in the corporate world, I decided that I wanted to run my own business working from home.

After studying fashion and textile design at Art College, I worked as a graphic artist and designer for 10 years (in the old cut and paste, pre computer days!), and then decided that I wanted a career change.

My next job was in the travel industry with Thomson Holidays working in various roles. I started as a Sales Advisor, then the Duty Office where I eventually became a Flight Operations Controller and then moved to work in the Flight Planning department.

Following a house move to Luton I worked for Britannia Airways (part of the Thomson group) as an Advance Planning Executive.

Having decided that I wanted to set up my own business I gratefully accepted voluntary redundancy!

Through a friend, I learnt about Virtual Assistants and decided that was the area I wanted to work in. I then took the VA Mastery Course, at the time run by Ginny Baillie and now run by Carmen MacDougall.

Before getting the business started, we moved to Turvey, a North Bedfordshire village where I now have an office with wonderful views across the countryside.

Away from my office I enjoy life with my husband, 2 dogs and a chinchilla!

"Jane does everything you would expect from a competent VA and a whole lot more. She has initiative - which for me is vital, she’s outrageously efficient, she is light hearted and calm even when I am in a flap, she is always improving her skills so I can count on up to date technology and she treats my clients as if they were her very own. I always get excited when I have an opportunity to refer business to Jane as I know how much that person is going to love having her as a resource, they just don’t know it yet!"
