I can’t thank you enough for sending my virtual assistant my way. She’s my super hero and angel in one person. My life has changed!
Eithne Jones
Founder, Speaker Ideas
When we needed to expand our team I immediately sought out blueumbrella and we have been relying on Jill since 2013 to provide us with professional, diligent and experienced VA support.
Omar Akram
Chief Operating Officer, Proco Group
I needed to find someone who could manage my diary, arrange international travel and complete ad hoc requests. Jill introduced me to one of her VA’s and I’m very impressed. The biggest compliment I can pay is the quality of work (i.e. credibility & reliability) is as good as my EA which I didn’t think would be possible!
Georgina Woudstra
Executive coach and facilitator
It’s hard to imagine my business without Jill at blueumbrella. They are professional, reliable and what I really appreciate is that they just get on with the job. It is a sound investment to make in your business as they enable you to focus on what you’re good at.

My VA is discrete which is a very important quality to me and carries out tasks efficiently meaning blueumbrella delivers great value for money. She is able to effectively pick up many other tasks in addition to the excellent management of my diary and email inboxes. I have now used blueumbrella for over 3 years and I am a very satisfied customer.

I didn’t need an assistant until I did. When my one-man consultancy became a several-person small business, blueumbrella came to my rescue. Jill matched me with an amazing VA who takes “organised” to a whole other level. I genuinely don’t know what I would do without her now.
