“over the moon with the company and chantelle, for me personally this is money well spent, its convenient to my company, good value. Chantelle has aleady bought me in valuable leads that i am working with alreaady, she is literally paying for herself. if you are a small business like myself this is an invaluable tool to my toolkit!”
“I had a very positive experience working with The Talent. The team is highly professional, well organized, and responsive throughout the entire process.
What I appreciated most was the support of the Client Success Manager. Having a dedicated contact made it easy to discuss requirements, refine the search, and address any questions along the way.
One piece of advice: be very clear about the role and objectives you want to fill. Virtalent offers a wide range of highly specialized virtual assistants, so defining your needs upfront helps identify the best match.
Overall, I can highly recommend The Talent to anyone looking for a professional and well-supported hiring experience.”
“From the outset, the support has been professional, responsive and genuinely tailored to our needs. The matched EAs have been and are outstanding – highly organised, proactive and incredibly easy to work with. They consistently make complex tasks feel effortless, which has freed up valuable time for me and our leadership team to focus on leading my organisation.
One of the things I appreciate most is Virtalent’s flexibility. The ability to access additional top-up hours when needed provides real reassurance and means the service can adapt as demands change.
The team takes the time to understand how you work, communicates exceptionally well, and delivers a level of support that feels like an extension of your own organisation rather than an external provider.
I would not hesitate to recommend Virtalent to any business leader looking for reliable, high-quality virtual assistance. They have made a significant difference to our productivity and effectiveness, and it is a pleasure working with them.

“I can't believe it's been four years! Izzy is fab, a complete treasure and consistently makes mine and Emma's workdays immeasurably easier and more productive. She's the safest of pairs of hands on almost any task, and absolutely the reason I've recommended your company numerous times in the last couple of years. I hope she chooses to stay around for many more years!”

Virtalent vs others
Not all virtual assistant services are created equal. At Virtalent, we combine experienced UK-based professionals, dedicated client support and a proven matching process. So you get more than a VA. You get a partner who helps your business run better.
You’ve seen the difference. Now find out how our service works in practice.
A Virtual Assistant is more capable than an AI tool for work that requires contextual understanding, judgement and proactive thinking. AI tools are effective for repetitive, straightforward tasks but cannot manage complex communications, exercise discretion or build a genuine working relationship. For a detailed comparison, see the Virtual Assistant vs AI page.
A managed VA service offers reliability and continuity that freelancers often cannot match. Your assistant is vetted, supported and can be replaced or adjusted if needed. You benefit from a success manager overseeing the relationship, something a freelance arrangement does not provide. For a full comparison, see the VA agency vs independent VA page.
A Virtual Assistant costs less than a full time in-house employee once total employment costs are considered, as you pay only for productive support rather than NI contributions, pension, holiday pay, office space and equipment. For a detailed breakdown, read the cost comparison guide and the VA vs employee page.
With an independent VA, you manage the recruitment, vetting and ongoing relationship entirely yourself. If performance falls short or your VA becomes unavailable, the disruption falls to you. A managed service removes this risk, as Virtalent handles matching, onboarding and quality assurance. For a full comparison, see the VA agency vs independent VA page.
