Meet Laura Carmichael
Founder and Lead Executive Assistant

With a background in education and over 16 years of experience, Laura brings a highly organised and practical approach to supporting businesses behind the scenes. After working as a Head of PE across the UK and UAE, she transitioned into the virtual assistant world to create a more flexible way of working - and has been running Amigo since 2024.
Laura now supports a range of clients with everything from day-to-day admin and client onboarding to website updates and social media, helping keep things running smoothly without the overwhelm.
Working alongside a small team, she offers reliable, flexible support across both business and personal tasks.
Now based back in the North East of England, Laura works with clients globally and is focused on helping businesses stay organised, consistent, and moving forward.
Why Hire a Virtual Assistant?
it's confusing at times to work out whether to hire and employee or a Virtual Assistant. In case you didn't know already, a Virtual Assistant gives you the support you need, without the commitment of a full-time employee.
Instead of managing salaries, contracts and overheads, you get flexible, reliable support that works around your business.
Flexible support
Use support when you need it, without being tied into fixed hours or long-term commitments.
Cost-effective
No employee costs, benefits or downtime - you only pay for the support you use.
No management required
Work is handled efficiently without the need for ongoing supervision or training.
Scalable
As your business grows, support can increase with you, without the stress of hiring.
More time for what matters
Free up your time to focus on running and growing your business, rather than getting caught up in day-to-day admin.
