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 operations administrator do?
Order and process admin, data management, workflow coordination, operational reporting and supplier/logistics admin.
How is this different from a BPO provider?
A BPO processes your work in a shared centre, often per-transaction on their platform. A dedicated operations administrator works only for you, in your systems, learns your operations, on a fixed fee.
Which systems?
Excel, your CRM/ERP and ops tools — in your existing setup.
UK hours?
Yes — full UK business hours, aligned with your operations.
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.
Can they improve our processes, not just run them?
Senior administrators design and improve processes and build reporting, not just execute.
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 growing operation?
Yes — back-office capacity that scales with you, for far less than a UK hire.
