Virtual Assistants in London
London runs on people, and people are the most expensive line on any London business’s budget. Office space in the City or the West End, salaries pushed up by the capital’s cost of living, and the sheer competition for good administrative and executive staff mean that hiring in-house support is a serious commitment. VA Scout gives London founders and teams another route: a pre-vetted virtual assistant who delivers the same reliable, senior-quality support remotely, for a fraction of the cost of a local hire.
Virtual assistants in London
Built for how London businesses actually work
No other UK city packs in as many different kinds of business. In a single week we hear from London clients across financial and professional services, tech and startups around Shoreditch and King’s Cross, creative and media agencies in Soho, and independent consultants and legal practices spread across every borough. What they share is a shortage of hours in the day and a reluctance to take on the fixed cost — and management overhead — of another permanent salary.
A virtual assistant absorbs the work that quietly eats a London professional’s week: inbox and diary management, client scheduling across time zones, invoicing and CRM upkeep, research, travel booking, and the marketing and social-media admin that always slips. You get the output without the desk, the National Insurance, or the recruitment fee that a London hire would carry.
Roles we source
Virtual assistant roles London businesses ask us for
-
Executive assistants for founders, partners and directors juggling investors, board papers and back-to-back diaries.
-
Finance & admin VAs for the capital’s accountancy, fintech and professional-services firms — bookkeeping support, reconciliations, client onboarding.

Transparent, one-time pricing
You pay a single placement fee based on the tier you need, from £349 for an Entry VA to £1,000 for a Specialist. There’s no recurring markup on your assistant’s wage and no hidden margins — a deliberate contrast to the ongoing costs of a London hire. Prefer us to manage the assistant for you, or draw on a whole team? Our Managed VA Service and Virtual Business Support Package do exactly that.
How it works
Tell us what you need, we source and run every candidate through our five-step vetting process, and you meet a shortlist, choose, and onboard — all backed by a free replacement guarantee (30–60 days).
Common questions
London FAQ
Do I need to be in London to work with you?
No. Your VA works remotely, so there’s nothing to visit — but they can flex to London working hours and your team’s tools.
Can a VA cover London time zones and international clients?
Yes. Many London clients use their VA precisely to manage diaries and correspondence across time zones.
How quickly can I have someone?
