Frequently Asked Questions
Cost vs a UK hire?
From £950/month (~£11,400/yr) vs ~£30k–£38k UK — up to 67% less.
What does an office administrator do?
Manages records, scheduling, correspondence, supplier and facilities admin, data entry and general office support.
Can an office administrator work remotely/offshore?
Yes — most office admin is digital (records, scheduling, correspondence, systems). Your offshore administrator handles all of it in your systems; anything physically on-site stays with your local team.
Office administrator vs business administrator?
Office admin focuses on day-to-day office running; business admin is broader and more operational/process-focused. We'll advise which fits.
Which tools?
MS 365, Google Workspace, your CRM/scheduling tools — in your setup.
UK hours?
Yes — full-time UK hours. Standard hours are 9–6 with a one-hour lunch; and if your business doesn't run on typical hours, your hire can work whatever full-time hours you need.
Is my data safe?
Yes — NDAs, GDPR, and our ISO 27001-certified offshore facility, with permissions you control.
How fast to start?
3–4 weeks typically.
Not the right fit?
90-day guarantee — if you're unhappy in the first 90 days, we replace within two weeks at no extra cost.
Suitable for a small business?
Yes — reliable office admin cover for far less than a UK hire.
