About Andrea - Virtual Assistant & OBM Based in Edinburgh, Scotland
I’m Andrea — the heart behind Solace VA — providing thoughtful, reliable virtual assistance to driven entrepreneurs who want to streamline their operations and reclaim their time.
Based near Edinburgh, I work as a virtual assistant in Scotland, supporting business owners across the UK who need dependable help behind the scenes so their businesses can run more smoothly.
For over a decade, I worked as an operations and sales manager in the luxury jewellery industry, where I lived and breathed premium client experiences, process precision, and fast-paced coordination. From managing internal teams to refining customer journeys, I ensured every touchpoint felt polished, seamless, and personal.
After becoming a mother, I stepped away from the corporate world to be fully present with my young children — a chapter that strengthened my organisation, adaptability, and problem-solving skills in ways I never expected.
Solace VA was created to combine that professional experience with the flexibility modern business owners need, while allowing me to build a business around the balance that matters most to me.
Today, I support entrepreneurs, executives, and small business owners who are ready to delegate with confidence. My work is grounded in professionalism, discretion, and genuine care.
Clients often share sensitive information, internal frustrations, and real business pressures with me — trust is central to the way I work, and I treat it with the respect it deserves.
I am comfortable working across tools such as Microsoft, Asana, Google, HubSpot, and Canva, and I adapt quickly to whatever systems my clients already use.
I work best with entrepreneurs who are exceptional at what they do but find the operational side of their business draining — people who value quality and expect the same from those around them.
That might mean managing a client’s inbox and calendar, so they begin each week with clarity, or setting up an onboarding process that ensures new clients feel looked after from day one.
Whether you need help managing your inbox, coordinating schedules, streamlining operations, or simply lightening your mental load, I’m here to provide skilled, thoughtful support as a true extension of your team.
If any of this resonates, I’d love to have a conversation — no pressure, just a chance to see if we’d be a good fit.
Let’s bring clarity, calm, and ease to your day.
