Turning Your Chaos Into Calm
About me . . .
Hi, I’m Jane, the founder of Ancora Virtual Support.
Ancora was born from a desire to take control of my own career after being made redundant (again!) and to build something meaningful on my
own terms.
From day-to-day admin to more complex support, if you need it done, I am here to help.
If your workload feels overwhelming or your to-do list never ends, Ancora Virtual Support could be the answer.
I bring over 30 years’ experience as a PA/EA, supporting C-suite executives, senior managers, teams, large corporates and small businesses ( as you can see below.)
I’m a natural “do-er” — I thrive on taking care of the support tasks so my clients can focus on what they do best.
Get in touch to arrange an introductory meeting and find out how I can turn your chaos into calm.
No task is too big - or too small.
Jane

She is highly organised, proactive and consistently effective at streamlining and improving day-to-day operations. She handles all executive responsibilities and sensitive matters with professionalism and discretion.
