Welcome to The Help Den
With 20 years of administrative experience supporting UK startups and scale-ups, I help overwhelmed founders reclaim their time. Whether you need someone to manage your inbox and calendar, handle your social media, or take operations off your plate entirely, I provide reliable, confidential support that lets you focus on growing your business.
​
I'm not here to just check boxes. We'll work together to figure out where you're losing time and energy be that managing your calendar, keeping up with social media, or handling admin tasks and create a support system that feels natural, not like another thing to manage.
​​
At The Help Den, I take time to understand your business - not just your to-do list. Your goals, your challenges, your vision. Then I create systems that give you back hours every week and the headspace to scale confidently.

Who's on hand to help?
Hi, I'm Mairéad - the person behind The Help Den. ​Based in Carshalton, Surrey, I provide executive support and marketing to business owners across the UK. I've spent 20 years supporting business owners who are brilliant at what they do but drowning in admin.
​
I'm organised, detail-focused, and genuinely invested in seeing your business thrive. When I take something on, it gets done properly - no chasing, no drama, no dropped balls.
​
How we work together:
I offer flexible support that fits your business, whether that's a few hours a month or ongoing partnership. We can work virtually or meet in person locally. No long-term contracts - just reliable support when you need it.
​
Every engagement starts with a free discovery call where we figure out what's stealing your time and how I can help get it back.​
