About Marie Chandler
My career as a Personal Assistant/secretary in the corporate world spanned over 20 years. Now I am known as a Virtual Assistant or VA, which means that I provide high level typing, design and secretarial services from my home office as an outsource service provider, rather than working from your office, which incurs costs for overheads. I enjoy being a solo business operator and using up-to-date technology to provide support to my clients. I believe you can never learn too much and enjoy the challenge of learning new programs and methods to ensure my clients are are not left behind - technologically speaking. I am motivated, enthusiastic, proactive, creative and professional.
I have worked in large corporate offices in the areas of receivership, liquidation, administration, corporate finance, retirement village leasing and commercial law and am looking forward to new challenges. I started as an office junior and worked my way to senior secretarial positions, so I understand how a business runs the most efficiently. I enjoy partnering with a business and providing ways to reduce stress and get the everyday tasks done in an efficient manner to free up the boss to get back into the marketplace and win new clients, rather than sitting at a desk all night wondering how to design a presentation or format a document.
As a soloist working from home I find it even more important to keep up to date with technology and ensure my skills don't become outdated. Researching, learning new programs and facing the challenges of helping a business become more productive and profitable are my goals. I have advanced knowledge of the Microsoft suite of products and am a strong believer in continuing education and updating skills. I use an Apple Mac computer, which has Microsoft for Mac 2008 and the Adobe CS4 Design Premium Suite. As part of my 'continuously grow and improve' mind set, I am learning more about design to offer these services. Based in Everton Park in the northern suburbs of Brisbane, as a VA I am able to assist you wherever you are in the world, thanks to technology. See my Services page for details of how I can assist you.
I believe good administration support is the backbone of any successful business and I take pride in the work I produce. I understand that confidentiality is of utmost importance and I commit to maintaining that confidentiality - after all, if your business doesn't look good, neither does mine. You can relax in the knowledge that you are being provided a great service that leaves you more time to go into the marketplace and meet your new clients, rather than sitting in your office for hours doing tasks that you should be delegating. I have a large network of highly trained VAs in many specialist fields that provide support and complement my skill set.
I look forward to being provided the opportunity to discuss how I can assist you in the running of your business. Call me now and discover the benefits of partnering with a VA.
