How can we help you?
Support finding a Personal Assistant
We work with the PA Collective to help you find a Personal Assistant (PA) that suits you. They’ll work with you to create a personalised job advert. Then, they’ll share it with their network of PAs and across Cornwall to fill the role. They’ll make sure you have everything you need to get set-up. And they’ll check-in to make sure everything’s going well.
