ABOUT 

After the birth of her son, Suzy Sanders made a decision to leave her corporate job as an executive assistant at a global recruitment firm and embark on a journey – to build her own successful Virtual Assistant business from scratch. 
 
Alchemy Virtual Assistance was born from a (then) makeshift home office in 2016, with the purpose of providing remote administration, practical marketing and flexible PA support to local small business owners and entrepreneurs. 
 
With her strong core values - integrity, honesty, family and adventure - at the heart of all business activities, Suzy has since achieved great business success, fostering strong connections and meaningful relationships with the right people to make the most impact. 
 
Today, as the demand for remote admin and virtual business support soars, Alchemy VA’s loyal global client-base is thriving at record levels. The company’s reputation is skyrocketing having been featured in Huff Post UK, on BBC regional news and the Times. Alchemy VA has enjoyed rapid yet sustainable and organic growth. Welcoming a growing number of Alchemy VA Franchise Hub Managers – carefully selected individuals with the same commitment, skills, mindset, personal objectives and values – who are all building their own Virtual Assistant enterprises under the award-winning and trusted Alchemy brand.
