Are you a trade-based business owner? Do you want more leisure time in 2024?

Sue from Sue Gray, Virtual Assistant

How about you let me take care of your bookkeeping, admin and payroll - and you get to enjoy family time on your evenings and weekends, instead of paperwork and admin?

Have you considered hiring a Virtual Assistant to take care of your office admin and bookkeeping? Do you know that hiring a … View more
How about you let me take care of your bookkeeping, admin and payroll - and you get to enjoy family time on your evenings and weekends, instead of paperwork and admin?

Have you considered hiring a Virtual Assistant to take care of your office admin and bookkeeping? Do you know that hiring a Virtual Assistant is way cheaper than employing another staff member??

I’m a Certified Bookkeeper and Xero advisor, well versed in general office admin, lover of creating and following processes, payroll, paperless offices and possibly slightly OCD about numbers.

I’ve been around trades-based businesses for 20+ years, as an owner and/or office manager, so I know what’s involved in running these businesses (and I’m used to bad language and politically incorrect jokes!).

Are you going away over the holidays??

After doing really well for the last couple of summers, and absolutely loving it, 12-year-old has asked me to put the word out again about her availability for looking after your pets over the coming summer.

Over the last two summers she has she managed to earn enough to buy herself a cake mixer, a Fitbit, roller skates, clothes, lots of bits and bobs, endless packets of mentos, and funded all her spending money for an overseas trip, with enough left over for the rest of the year. 😊 Not sure what next year will bring for her but she’s keen to have a few dollars put away to make the most of whatever it is.

She's keen to feed small pets and birds, water pot plants/gardens, walk friendly dogs etc etc. Available immediately and throughout the summer up to the end of Jan. Please keep her in mind if you're away for a few days or a few weeks.

Rates negotiable! References available from happy customers.

Needless to say she will be fully supervised! 😊 Text me on 0226206258 to arrange for an intro visit. 😊
