"Every year I say I'm going
to get organised for my accountant, so was pleased to be
able to hand over a big bag of receipts, invoices and bank
statements to one of Sarah's PAs. They are so patient with
everything, even sending gentle reminders when statements
are missing! This has become an annual thing now, and my
accountants are as happy as I am."
Luke Jackson, TV director, London
"As a full-time working
mother, Sarah Vaux's assistance was crucial to me in maintaining
a well-balanced life and allowed me to spend my precious
free-time with my family and friends rather than scrambling
on the weekends to fit it all in. She also helped me to
accomplish many long-term projects that used to keep me
awake at night!
Among many of Sarah's weekly tasks, she organized all household
duties such as dealing with utilities, checking and opening
mail, reconciling bank statements. She coordinated and managed
the household, including the housekeeper, nanny, builder,
window-cleaner, upholsterer. Her additional talents include
superb party planning, advice in decorating (she often went
shopping with me for materials), and creating and booking
travel itineraries.
Sarah is a fun, kind, considerate and lovely person to
work with. I recommend her highly to anyone with an over-scheduled
life with no time to sort it out themselves."
Mrs Vanessa Bradford, London, UK
"I have known Sarah for
several years both as an employee and a friend. I owned
an Art Gallery in Padstow, Cornwall and Sarah was my Gallery
Manager and personal assistant for approximately 2 years.
Her roles and responsibilities included:
-
Staff management
-
Accounts and banking
-
Client relationship management
-
Sourcing and buying pieces of art.
-
Organising my diary
-
Organising PR events and exhibitions
During this time I found Sarah was
able to:
-
Communicate clearly, influence and cultivate and establish
relationships.
-
Organise and prioritise work effectively.
-
Ensure the appropriate business control mechanisms
were in place.
-
Take decisions on a broad range of issues, which had
strategic importance to the business.
-
Persevere with longer-term goals and objectives ensuring
they are completed on time.
Sarah has a high drive to make things happen and inspires
this in others; she is totally trustworthy and ethical.
She injects fun and energy into everything she does. She
is an extremely professional individual and will make an
excellent employee. If you would like any further information
please do email or phone me."

"Sarah Vaux worked for
me and my family for a 3 month period on a part-time basis
upon our request.
Sarah was an invaluable asset at that time. With a new baby
and moving house she was a fantastic pair of hands in a
transition period.
Principally, Sarah managed the final stages of our house
purchase, all our moving arrangements, building work at
our new home as well as sorting out essential purchases
for our new baby.
Sarah was always punctual, extremely professional, very
organised and above all trustworthy. She fitted in well
with the workings of our family and I felt very comfortable
having her in our home. I would thoroughly recommend her
to any new employer."
