About Us
After years of working in fast-paced, corporate office spaces we noticed the shift in business professionals looking for virtual assistance. We recognised that the need for reliable support had become more important than ever, as more and more people turned to working remotely.
The VA Partnership was formed in 2007 by founders, Jon and Sue, to provide high-level administrative and secretarial support to the people that need it most. We have built a business on integrity, honesty and empathy – and every member of The VA Partnership team reflects these values.

CO-FOUNDER
Jon Boys
Jon spent six years serving as a telecommunications specialist in the RAF, and spent the early subsequent years working for a variety of engineering companies. After a career that took him around Europe, Jon eventually left employment to pursue his own business venture, centred around his passions of helping people and human behaviour. Jon retrained as an executive coach, psychotherapist and self-empowerment seminar leader, encouraging clients to be the best version of themselves.
Outside of work, Jon enjoys spending time playing the guitar and writing music, and heading into the countryside for walks and runs with Sue and their two Labradors, Poppy and Lulu. Jon enjoys giving back to the community, and is involved in raising funds for local charities.
