The admin's piling up.
I'll take it from here.

I'm Leighann. Procurement, admin, office management, events, tenders: whatever's piling up behind the scenes, I'm the one who sorts it. Tell me what needs doing and I'll get on with it.

How I can help

Whether it's procurement, logistics, tenders or an event on your plate, I can help.

Procurement & admin management

Orders go out, vendors get chased, paperwork gets filed. Nothing sits on your desk waiting for you to get to it, because I already have.

Office & PA support

Your calendar, your inbox, your priorities. I'll hold all of it so your head's free for the parts only you can do.

Virtual assistant support

I've supported clients in the US for six years without ever being in the same room. Wherever you are, I can work with that.

Event & conference support

Slide decks sorted, tech tested, timing to the minute. You walk into the room, and it just works.

Tender compiling & submissions

Documents gathered, formatted, checked twice, in before the deadline. Not thrown together at 11pm the night before.

And if there's an AI tool that could quietly take some of the comms, scheduling or reporting off your plate too, I'll set that up as well.

Background

Twenty-six years of operational experience, one step at a time.

I started at a front desk in 2000. From there, into debtors and creditors, regional sales support for a multinational, ISO-certified admin work, and operations management for an industrial supplier, across chemical, manufacturing, FMCG and engineering environments.

In 2019 I set out on my own, building a practice around the same operational work, just across more industries and continents.

The work has evolved along the way, but the core of it hasn't changed: I show up, I stay on top of the detail, and I make things run.
