Do you charge more outside London?

No. Rates are identical wherever you are — £35 per hour ad-hoc or £560 a month on a 16-hour retainer.

Can you cover a holiday or maternity gap?

Yes. Short fixed-term cover is common, and there is no obligation to continue once the gap is filled.

Will you document how things are done?

Yes. Recurring tasks are written up as simple, repeatable processes as they are handled, so the knowledge stays with your business rather than with whoever happens to be doing the work.

Who it suits

Support shaped around Hertfordshire businesses

Construction and property

Subcontractor paperwork, purchase orders, application-for-payment admin and document control kept current.

Family-run firms

The admin that has been done on the kitchen table for years — invoicing, filing, supplier queries — moved into a proper system.

Professional practices

Appointment scheduling, client onboarding packs, reminder chasing and inbox cover during leave.

Local advantage

Close enough to be local, remote enough to be affordable

Hertfordshire businesses often try to solve admin overload with a part-time hire, then discover the recruitment, training and holiday cover cost more than the problem. A retainer avoids all of it.

Being based in Enfield means the same working patterns, the same commuter belt and the same understanding of how your clients and suppliers operate.

Near me

Looking for a "virtual assistant near me" in Hertfordshire?

Wise Resolutions sits immediately over the county boundary in Enfield, which puts Potters Bar, Cheshunt, Broxbourne, Hatfield and Hertford within a short drive and the rest of the county on the same commuter belt. For a Hertfordshire business searching for local admin support, that means shared working hours, shared context and one named assistant rather than an offshore pool.

The work itself is delivered remotely inside your own email, calendar and accounting systems — that is what keeps it at £35 an hour instead of agency rates — but a face-to-face handover in south Hertfordshire is straightforward to arrange when a first engagement warrants one.

Why the part-time hire usually costs more than expected

Hertfordshire businesses often reach for a part-time administrator first, then discover the total is nothing like the advertised wage. Recruitment or advertising, interview time, a training period before productivity, employer National Insurance, workplace pension, holiday and sick cover, equipment, software licences and payroll processing all sit on top of the salary line.

A retainer removes every one of those. You are engaging a business for worked hours, not employing a person, so there is no payroll, no HR obligation and no notice period to unwind if the workload changes. Full rates are published on the pricing page rather than hidden behind an enquiry form.

Cover for gaps, not just growth

A large share of Hertfordshire work is temporary cover: maternity, long-term sickness, a resignation with no replacement lined up, or a two-month project that would otherwise stall. Short fixed-term arrangements are normal and carry no obligation to continue once the gap closes.

Because processes are documented while the work is being done, whatever is built during the cover period transfers cleanly to a permanent hire afterwards instead of leaving with the temporary help.

Full rates are published on the pricing page, and the VA versus employee comparison covers the cost question in detail.
