Strategic PA Network

Strategic PA Network is an active professional networking group for high performing Personal Assistants, Executive Assistants, Virtual Assistants, Administrators and Office Managers based in the UK. We are not county specific – anyone is welcome to attend, we also welcome international connections. Events are listed on our website - www.strategicpanetwork.com - if you are thinking of coming along please do! We are a friendly group, all inclusive, everyone who attends has a desire to learn new things and connect with likeminded peers. “Working as a PA, EA or VA you have to be self-sufficient a majority of the time and it is not often you work as part of a team. Joining the Strategic PA Network (formerly BBO PA Network) feels like joining my own team, a group of like-minded, driven individuals who encourage, support and push one another. The network provides development opportunities businesses cannot always provide their support staff. It also, is an inclusive environment, giving you the opportunity to network with peers, companies, and speakers with whom you wouldn’t necessarily get the chance to meet!” Feb 2019 The network was established by Sarah Howson in 2015 whilst she was on maternity leave out of frustration for a lack of networking events for Assistant. The network provides a friendly, safe and inclusive environment to: - Share Best Practice - Discuss Ideas - Build Relationships - Inspire One Another - Learn From Each Other In person events are hosted at various London, Buckinghamshire, Berkshire and Oxfordshire venues. We have been fortunate enough to have some interesting and thought-provoking speakers in the past. Each networking event includes stimulating elements of learning and development. We want all members to leave our events feeling part of something and inspired!
