What is a VA?

• A VA is also known as a Virtual Assistant.

• A VA is self employed and can carry out most duties that staff in a traditional office can but from their own office.
  
  The benefits for clients using a VA are:
  

• No need to find office space, equipment and software for an Administrator. All work is carried out in the office of the VA using their own equipment.

• More cost effective for your charity and business. No need to pay someone for anything other than the work carried out on your behalf.

• No need to sort out N.I contributions and tax for an official member of staff. VAs sort their own taxes and contributions and will invoice you direct.

• Remote working is greener and better for the environment. Hiring freelancers with home office setups can help to reduce commute emissions.
