18+ Years of Experience
Hi, I'm Lefki — founder of Create Time VA. With a background in client services and project management, I partner with UK founders and small business owners to keep your operations running smoothly, so the day-to-day never gets in the way of growth.
● Based in North London, working remotely with clients across the UK. ● Supporting businesses at all stages of growth. ● Flexible, tailored support for your unique needs.
Why UK Business Owners Work With a Virtual Assistant
.
It’s a pattern I see often in my client work. Running a business is demanding, and when day-to-day operations take over, time - and strategic focus - suffer.This is where structured support makes the difference.
Hi, I’m Lefki - your dedicated Virtual Assistant partner.
Whether you’re an ambitious start-up or an established operation, I offer dependable, premium support that takes ownership of the day-to-day so you don’t have to.Having worked at organisations such as Channel 4, Havas, and WPP, I support clients as an extension of their business - handling the detail that keeps everything moving.
Social media support - schedule posts, monitor engagement
Website builds - including updates, content changes
Project coordination - planning through to delivery
Sales and outreach support - track leads, follow ups, CRM admin
Day-to-day admin - organise systems, documents, and tasks
The focus is always on reducing friction and making your week feel more manageable.I personally manage every client partnership, so you’ll always know exactly who’s supporting your business.
Why UK Virtual Assistant support is better than hiring in-house
A virtual assistant provides experienced support - without the commitments or costs of hiring an employee.Here's what that looks like in practise:
Removes operational bottlenecks
Fewer distractions and more time each week to focus on income-generating work.
Pay only for the support you need - (no sick pay, holiday pay or pension).
No recruiting, training or equipment costs - just experienced support, ready when you need it.

Compliments from some of my clients, who've found more time - and less stress - with Create Time VA.
“It just feels easier running my business now.” I used to spend hours buried in admin and emails. Lefki quietly took it all off my plate and somehow keeps everything ticking without me having to chase. She’s reliable, kind, and genuinely cares.– Sarah, Business Consultant
“I can actually breathe again.” I was constantly juggling client work and admin until Lefki came along. She’s organised but relaxed — the kind of person who just gets things done and makes you feel calm about it.– Emma, Creative Business Owner
“She understood my business straight away.” I run a small children’s publishing company and help with the smaller details — emails, author schedules, all the fiddly bits. Lefki just got it. It’s like having a second version of me, but more organised.– James R., Independent Children’s Publisher, Hertfordshire
“She keeps me one step ahead of myself.” Lefki helps me plan, manage client projects, and follow up on the little things I’d usually forget. She’s thoughtful, dependable, and makes my workdays feel so much lighter.– Priya, Business Coach
“I can finally switch off without worrying something’s been missed.” Lefki looks after the admin side of my properties — chasing maintenance, managing updates, keeping me in the loop. She’s efficient but also lovely to deal with. My tenants appreciate her as much as I do.– David, Landlord & Property Owner
