Ana Carlton – Executive PA and Business Support for Entrepreneurs, Founders and Professionals

Got a problem you don’t have time to solve?

I’ll handle it. Running a business means there is always something competing for your attention. The tasks that need taking off your plate that become distractions. I provide experienced business support for professionals and business owners who need someone they can trust to take ownership, solve problems and keep it all moving. It also matters who you trust to handle that. Authenticity matters. There’s a difference between an assistant and a coordinator.

I don’t just complete tasks. I bring initiative, judgement and a practical approach to getting things done.

Do you need more than traditional PA support?

A good support partner does more than manage a diary or inbox. They understand priorities, anticipate needs and find solutions. Whether you need ongoing support or help with a specific challenge, I can step in and provide the extra capacity your business needs. From organising complex tasks to researching answers, coordinating projects and managing the details that often get overlooked. I help create order from complexity and solve as many of those problems that block you from doing what you do best.

How I can help?

Business Support & Operations that helps your business run smoothly:

• Research and information gathering
• Project coordination/keep you aware of those important deadlines
• Exceptional communication: on the page and in the room
• Process organisation and improvements
• Administration and operational fluency because the systems are the job
• Creating structure where things feel overwhelming

Executive PA Support for busy professionals

• Being bold, as sometimes you will get it wrong or miss something – I’ll tell you.
• Comfortable with ambiguity
• Accept not all tasks arrive with instructions
• Confidential administrative support
• Managing tasks that need attention and follow-through

Research, Writing & Special Projects include assignments that need more than administration

• Professional writing support
• Research-based content
• Reports and business documents
• Website uploads, copy and more
• One-off projects requiring initiative and discretion

The uncommon requests are some of my favourite assignments .

The ones that do not fit neatly into a category. The tasks where you think: “Who can I give this to?” The answer is often me. From finding solutions to unusual challenges to sourcing information or making complex arrangements, I enjoy turning difficult requests into achievable outcomes.

Client confidentiality is always a priority.

Concierge Services

For those occasions where you need something researched, sourced or arranged, I offer a tailored concierge-style service. Available for select personal requests alongside my professional business support services.

What am I available for and in what capacity?

• Remote assignments
• In-person support (dependant on location)
• Corporate projects; one-off assignments
• Research and writing assignments
• Bespoke business support without the cost and responsibility of staffing commitments

If you have something that needs doing, but you do not have the time, resources or capacity to handle it yourself, get in touch. Let’s find the solution.

I perform uncommon tasks. Take a look at the past requests that I can disclose. Client confidentiality remains a priority always.

The story so far

A graduate of UAL London College of Fashion and Bath Spa University, I bring a blend of creativity, commercial awareness and practical problem solving to everything I do.

Originally from London, with an international outlook shaped by education, experience and long-standing connections across the UK and US. I bring a strong understanding of different business cultures and ways of working. Having maintained close connections with the United States, particularly California, I am comfortable working with both UK and American clients and adapting to different expectations, communication styles and approaches.

Throughout my career, I have supported a diverse range of clients including brand owners, property developers, media professionals and high net worth families. I have worked as a travel concierge for a premium blue-chip concierge service, where discretion, attention to detail and the ability to deliver solutions were essential.

For over ten years, I have also been an e-commerce business owner, navigating the fast-moving world of online platforms, digital marketing and social media.

This experience has shaped the way I work today. I don’t just complete tasks; I look for solutions, take ownership and find ways to make things happen. I am often the person clients turn to when something needs solving, knowing that I will explore the options, find the answer and move things forward.

I believe the ordinary can be done exceptionally well, with initiative, creativity and care.

My goal is simple: to give clients back valuable time and provide trusted support they can rely on.

Alongside my professional work, I am writing a narrative non-fiction book, reflecting my passion for research, storytelling and understanding the human side behind every situation.

A mix of regular weekly or monthly contracts, and ad-hoc project work. Availability changes with the seasons. Be sure to ask for any special services or build a bespoke model!

I work for various clients. They expect me to figure out the nitty-gritty and get results. They are time-poor, and my job is to ensure they don’t lose anymore.

Unusual & challenging requests (the ones I can disclose!):

*A client’s Rolex watch was stolen. having particular sentimental value the client’s focus was to simply get it back. Trusted contacts that monitor black market activity were notified. The client was happy to pay to get the watch back; no questions asked.

*Opening a US bank account for a non-US resident without a fixed US address.

*Arranging transport for a family’s beloved pet across the globe – transport, visas, vaccinations to name a few challenges.

*Obtaining same-week bookings at some of London’s in-demand restaurants…Bottarga, Gymkhana, Chiltern Firehouse, Dishoom King’s Cross and Core by Clare Smyth are some of the near impossible venues to access without the obligatory two-month waiting list. Sometimes I need to be creative… but I’ll get you in.
