About Me

Sophie Lynagh

Hi, I’m Sophie!

I am a Project/Business Manager and Virtual Assistant. I have vast experience as a non-clinical senior manager within the NHS with substantial change, project, and operational management skills.

My Story

I hold a BA Honours degree in Computer Science, an MSc in Health Informatics, and an MSc in Management and am PRINCE2 qualified. I have built my expertise and experience in various roles over the last 18 years, and I have demonstrated successful outcomes.

I thrive in a fast-paced environment where no two days are ever the same and continuously look for opportunities to make the most of my skills while enhancing my personal and professional development.

During my career, I have led several significant operational changes. As a result, I can relate successfully to people at all levels and manage large-scale operations.

The experience I have gained working within the public and private sectors has been instrumental in my growth in reaching a senior position.

After finding Quintessential VA services, Sophie has revolutionised the administrative side of my business. She introduced a new planning & invoice system and ensures my invoices are sent out professionally and on time, as well as, chasing payment according to payment terms and reconciling. Sophie also prepares my tax return for my accountant.

Steve Morrow

I have a small property business and was struggling to keep up to date with all the admin whilst maintaining a healthy work-life balance.

I have been offloading a lot of the admin tasks to Sophie, which has helped enormously. I now have time to enjoy life whilst maintaining my high standards within my business.
