Jessica W.
Executive Assistant | Operations & Project Manager | Founder Support
Too much depends on you? I can help carry it. With over 16 years of experience spanning senior corporate leadership, executive support and business operations, I've worked alongside founders, CEOs and ultra-high-net-worth individuals, providing the discretion, sound judgement and proactive support needed to keep their businesses and personal affairs running seamlessly. I've provided confidential executive and personal support to ultra-high-net-worth principals with assets exceeding $30 million, operating in demanding environments where absolute confidentiality, exceptional standards, independent decision-making and the ability to anticipate needs are essential. My career includes experience with global organisations such as FedEx, DHL and Worldpay, alongside progressing to Corporate Sales Director level. Having held senior commercial responsibilities myself, I understand business operations, competing priorities and the pressures of leadership from firsthand experience. I bring commercial awareness and an operational mindset to every client relationship. I don't simply complete tasks. I anticipate needs, take ownership, solve problems and ensure things move forward without constant supervision. 🔑 HOW I CAN SUPPORT YOU EXECUTIVE & FOUNDER SUPPORT • Executive inbox and diary management • Complex scheduling, meetings and follow-ups • Stakeholder and client communications • Priority management and action tracking • Confidential executive and personal administration PRIVATE & UHNW PERSONAL ASSISTANCE • Discreet lifestyle and personal administration • International travel planning and logistics • Accommodation, reservations and itineraries • Research, bookings and practical arrangements • Independent problem-solving and service coordination BUSINESS OPERATIONS & PROJECT MANAGEMENT • Project coordination, deadlines and deliverables • Operational support and process improvement • SOP development and workflow optimisation • CRM and pipeline management • Business research and strategic recommendations • Stakeholder coordination and follow-through 🤖 AI & BUSINESS EFFICIENCY I'm actively developing AI-supported workflows and operational systems within my own business, using technology to improve efficiency while maintaining the discretion, accuracy and human judgement that excellent executive support requires. 🖥️ SYSTEMS & TECHNOLOGY Google Workspace • Microsoft 365 • Outlook • Slack • Zoom • Microsoft Teams • Notion • HubSpot • Capsule CRM • Calendly • QuickBooks • DocuSign • Canva • Mailchimp • Google Drive • Dropbox ⭐ WHY WORK WITH ME? I've supported individuals with significant business and personal responsibilities, where trust, responsiveness and getting things right the first time are essential. I'm commercially aware, highly organised and comfortable working independently. I don't wait to be chased, and I don't simply highlight problems; I investigate, present solutions and follow through. As a business owner and former Corporate Sales Director, I understand the bigger picture as well as the details. My goal is simple: to become a trusted extension of your business or personal operations, giving you the confidence to delegate and the freedom to focus on what matters most. 📍 UK BASED | SUPPORTING INTERNATIONAL CLIENTS Available for ongoing and project-based engagements. If you're looking for an experienced, discreet and proactive professional who brings genuine ownership rather than simply completing a task list, I'd welcome a conversation. You focus on what matters most. I'll help make sure everything else moves forward.
