Elite executive assistance for builders, contractors and tradespeople across Essex and Hertfordshire. We run your back office so you can run your business.
You're exceptional at what you do on site. The problem isn't the work — it's everything that surrounds it. The invoices that go out late. The leads that go cold. The diary that's a mess. The admin that fills your Sunday evenings.
The Trade Desk Co. was built specifically for trades businesses across Essex and Hertfordshire. We're not a generic VA company. We're executive assistants who understand how your business actually works — and we run the back office so you don't have to.
We work fully remotely for seamless day-to-day support, and in-person check-ins are available upon request for clients who prefer a face-to-face catch-up.
Before we do anything, we listen. We'll ask you to walk us through your business — how you work, what you use, where the headaches are — so we hit the ground running from day one.
While The Trade Desk Co. is currently owner-operated, your business will never be left without cover. The week before and after any planned absence is fully prepared in advance so nothing slips — no dropped balls, no surprises.
We know the local market, local suppliers and local business culture across both counties. We're not a faceless national brand.
We use the best AI tools to work faster — but every client-facing output is reviewed by a real, experienced EA before it leaves our desk.
Seven core service areas built around the real operational challenges of running a trades business in Essex and Hertfordshire.
We raise and send your invoices, chase overdue payments and keep your cash flow moving. No more chasing money while you're mid-job.
We manage your calendar, book in jobs, send client reminders and handle rescheduling — across Jobber, Tradify or whatever system you use.
We respond to enquiries, follow up on quotes and manage your inbox so no lead goes cold and no client feels ignored.
Regular posts showcasing your work, responding to Google reviews and keeping your online presence active — without you lifting a finger.
Supplier correspondence, delivery tracking, purchase order management and material chasing — all handled professionally on your behalf.
Timesheet management, subcontractor onboarding, compliance documentation and recruitment admin support — from posting job ads to coordinating interviews — for growing trades teams.
From organising team away days and client events to booking travel, accommodation and managing vehicle admin — we handle the logistics so your team can focus on the job.
Ad-hoc work available at £25/hr · All packages require 1 month's notice to cancel · No setup fees
