Hi,

I believe that there is a market for HR VA's however I recently learned that I need to do my market research to really see if this is the case.

Having worked in HR for 11 years I hope to specialise in this area. I have one client who I carry out salary and benchmarking reviews for. This is my one and only client at the moment as I am just starting up.

Typical work that could be carried out is recruitment administration, training administration, policy writing, maintaining HR records, data entry, providing management information and presentations.... the list goes on, I really do think there is a lot of work that could be done.

Data security is likely to be VERY important to any clients wanting to outsource this work, especially when dealing with names, addresses, salaries, bank details. Also, clients may want to see that anyone who works for them has professional HR qualifications.

This thread is really interesting to me and I will be keen to know of any other experiences of VA's supporting HR.

Thanks,
Sharon
