Virtalent VAs

The best Virtual Assistant service in the UK

For over a decade, Virtalent has been connecting talented Virtual Assistants with entrepreneurs and small businesses who value quality support. We've built a thriving community of 275+ experienced VAs who deliver exceptional PA services, marketing, and project management support to clients across the UK.

✨ Who we are
A supportive community where your skills and experience are genuinely valued. Our VAs average 15 years' experience, and we're proud to work with professionals who know their craft. We specialise in building long-term partnerships - not just with clients, but within our team, too.

You'll join a culture where each person feels respected, supported, and part of something meaningful. This isn't about quick projects or short-term gigs; it's about sustainable work with clients who appreciate what you bring to the table.

💼 How we work
We are 100% remote and UK-based, offering a flexible work environment built on trust. No clock-watching, no performative policies. We genuinely live the values we promote. As a Virtalent VA, you'll find a culture where flexibility and inclusivity aren't just buzzwords; they're how we operate. You have the autonomy to work in the way that suits you best, supported by a team that's always there when you need them.

Why Virtalent might not be for you

🎯 You're in control of your own success
There's no traditional progression or management oversight. Your client demand is driven by your profile, skills, and the opportunities you choose to apply for. If you need a structured career path or someone guiding your next steps, you may struggle here.

🤝 Flexibility requires responsibility
You manage your own schedule, but that means being reliable and responsive when clients need you. If you prefer someone else to organise your day, this won't suit you.

💬 Our Slack community is active and engaging
We use Slack to stay connected, share tips, celebrate wins, and support each other. If you prefer complete isolation or find group chats overwhelming, the collaborative nature of our community might not suit you.

🌊 Workload ebbs and flows
Some weeks are busier than others depending on your clients' needs. You'll need to be comfortable with this natural rhythm rather than expecting identical hours every week.

🔄 Variety is the norm
You might be doing admin one day and project coordination the next. If you prefer doing exactly the same tasks in exactly the same way every day, the diverse nature of VA work may feel unsettling.

👥 You'll likely support multiple clients
Most of our VAs choose to work with several clients simultaneously, which requires excellent organisation and the ability to context-switch. If you find juggling priorities stressful, this might not be the right fit.

Ultimately, we've created an environment that treats people like adults and expects professional behaviour in return. For many people, it's their ideal working arrangement, but it's not for everyone, and that's ok!

Approach to inclusion

At Virtalent, diversity, equity and inclusion is of utmost importance to us, as we know people are as diverse as the businesses we support. Our Virtual Assistants bring different backgrounds, experiences, skills and perspectives, and our clients span every industry and sector imaginable – this rich diversity is our greatest strength.

Flexible working at Virtalent VAs

For our Virtual Assistants
We believe you should control your work, not the other way around. Work from anywhere in the UK, whether that's a cottage in Cornwall or a flat in Edinburgh, and choose the hours that fit around your life. Want to work around school runs, caring responsibilities, or other commitments? You decide your schedule and workload. This autonomy means you can build a career that truly works for you, delivering excellent service to clients while maintaining the balance that matters most.

For our clients
Our clients' businesses don't stand still, so why should their support? Virtalent offers the flexibility for clients to scale up during growth spurts, dial back in quieter periods, and adjust hours month by month as priorities shift. No rigid contracts, no unnecessary constraints – just the right level of support exactly when they need it.
