Luke McGrath
@lukemcgrath
I’m a motivated Virtual Assistant and technician who delivers reliable administration, customer support, and hands-on problem solving.
What I'm looking for
I am a highly motivated, hard-working individual and am always looking to build and expand my knowledge and experience. Throughout my professional career I have developed skills to work well within a team and communicate effectively, but also work effectively independently. I am conscientious and work to the best of my ability in everything I do.
I bring strong field and administration experience, including supervising/leading teams varied between 5-10 people, installing & programming heat/electrical meters into residential and commercial properties, and managing warehouse management & logistics for deliveries and dispatches. I’m comfortable with customer service via face to face and phone, appointment scheduling, and daily administration tasks like email, diary, and software management.
I also support clients remotely as a Freelance Virtual Assistant (3+ Years Experience), handling administration tasks, appointment setting/diary management, social media/marketing, and event & travel planning through telephone and email communications. Alongside that, I have hands-on technical and construction strengths—from assembly technician work using soldering and hand tools to wood/garden shed projects involving reading plans, accurate measuring and cutting, quality control checks, and training new starters.
