Business Friend provides freelance secretarial services for one-off projects and on a regular basis to our clients, both in-house and virtually.

With over 30 years experience in business support, we can assist with document production, including reports and presentations, copy typing, audio typing, social media posts, blogs and newsletters, invoicing and other secretarial tasks.

  • Virtual support: Business Friend has been providing virtual business support for over 20 years – long before working from home became a more common way of working! Whether you need a freelance secretary on a regular basis or a one-off project, we can create documents and presentations, blogs, newsletters, social media posts, invoices and other correspondence as needed. With experienced audio typists, copy typists, Canva, PowerPoint, Word and Excel operators, we can support your business in the background while you run your company.
  • Freelance secretary: Some clients prefer in-person secretarial support, whether for holiday or sickness cover, or to help their current support staff during busy periods or for large projects. If your business is based in London, Chelmsford, Maldon, Burnham-on-Crouch, Basildon, Wickford or surrounding areas in Essex, then Kerry – the founder and director of Business Friend – could be your “business temp”, ensuring seamless cover or ad-hoc support alongside your existing admin assistants and secretaries.
