About Us
I am Julie Wiggs and I founded UK Virtual Assistant Services in 2012. My journey began when I met a local businessman who was clearly struggling to manage all his admin and office tasks whilst he was out talking care of his main business activity. I offered to help him and I haven't looked back and his business has grown from strength to strength and he is still my client today.
​
I love my job and am extremely motivated. People I speak to do remark that my passion shines through when I speak about my work. I want to help businesses thrive and grow by taking care of those business tasks and activities you don't like to do or simply don't have the time for. I strive to be your business best friend!
The 'Go To' Person
​
For as long as I can remember, I've always been the 'go to' person for family, friends and colleagues. If they need something doing, a problem solving, I've also sorted it, solved the problem or answered the question. I am passionate about helping people, it really is part of my DNA. If there is something I'm not familiar with then you can guarantee I will learn quickly and I will get it done.
I am a details oriented person and for me, giving the best service is the only option. I strive for excellence in everything I do.
My Background
​
I have a vast range of experience and expertise with over 30 years in Investigation & Intelligence, Legal Services, Business Administration/Management and Leadership roles within HM Customs & Excise / UK Border Force and the private sector.
I have successfully set up many departments and teams from scratch, both in the public and private sectors, devising paper and IT systems and processes as well as training and managing teams.
