Empowering time-stretched Business Owners & Hotel Managers
by offering flexible support with Project and Hospitality Management
Are you looking for someone to whom you can delegate critical support tasks to, in order to enable you to focus more on your priorities and things that really matter to you?
By outsourcing to me you may be able to regain some of that much-needed headspace. I fully appreciate outsourcing needs to be done with care as you will need someone to compliment your team, a person who is trustworthy and responsible, to have your back. Why not have a call with me to see whether I can help you?
It's my aim to "make the magic happen", working behind the scenes, or in some instances assisting temporarily in front of house positions in the hospitality industry. I bring people peace of mind, become their business sidekick and soundboard. I can be your right-hand person with all-year-round support, or simply help you for a limited period to clear your forever growing to-do list or maybe assist you with a one off project.
By delegating some of your significant tasks to me, you will have the freedom and time to focus on what you enjoy most. Whether this is taking your business to the next level or simply aiming for the work/life balance, after all, time is very precious!
Services range from ad hoc support, starting from one hour a month, to ongoing support on a retainer basis, to tailored support on a project basis. All at a fraction of the cost compared to employing someone.
I would like to thank you for your time, please explore my website and feel free to contact me by email or phone, should you have any questions.
Kind regards,

Meet the person behind the company
Lonneke Macauley, founder & owner of Time Precious PA Ltd.
Hi, my name is Lonneke Macauley, the founder, and owner of Time Precious PA Ltd launched in 2018. I am an Ex Hotel Manager, multi-lingual, highly motivated, and a widely skilled individual with more than 20 years of International work experience with excellent leadership, people, planning, communication, and organisation skills.
I provide strategic, operational, management, and administrative support. I am a very detailed and organised person and believe in the power of efficiency. I am a self-motivator who enjoys teamwork and a challenge. As alumni of the Hotel School The Hague, located in the Netherlands, hospitality is in my heart and I am accustomed to wearing many “hats” in an organisation and I do not shy away from multi-tasking or hard work.
Keen to find a new challenge using my leadership, people, planning, communication, and organisation skills acquired over the past 20 years during my international career; Time Precious PA Ltd seemed like a natural choice. It was my desire to start a business venture whereby I could help others and at the same time, provide a better work/life balance for my family and myself. On behalf of my clients, I act as a Virtual Business Organiser / Online Business Manager (OBM).
I run my own Online Business Management and Executive PA service support business. I work with a select number of people and have a small team of associates available to support me with this, as required.
In a previous life, I was a Hotel Manager working for many years in various large resorts around the world. It was a rewarding job and I remain passionate about this industry as I am drawn to the customer-focused aspect of this business sector and the people interaction. My success lies in the ability to work and operate individually or as part of a team. Once I started a family I took some time out to enable me to spend more time with my yound family. Unexpectedly I changed my career path and began my second career which was that of a Virtual Executive Assistant, where I worked for over ten years assisting C-level Executives.
As a Virtual Executive Assistant (VEA) I worked with the Executive Leadership Team of one of the largest fast-paced global telecommunications service providers, providing 1-1 support to an internationally recognised top 20 Chief Marketing Officer (Forbes), delivering the highest level of business support ranging from critical office, team and stakeholder management in a multi-cultural environment.
These combined careers gave me the experience and skills to support busy Executives and assist them with flexible online business management support whenever they require it.
I understand that running your own business or keeping your hotel running like clockwork can be challenging as I am a business owner myself and very much remember the days when I used to manage hotels. I like to help people and that stems from my hospitality background. I love the fact that having a little bit of me in my clients' lives makes a real difference to them and their businesses.
For most of my clients, I work with them directly, I am their dedicated 'go-to' person, their online business partner, their business sidekick. However, due to the fact that I offer such flexible business support and do various Project Management Support throughout the year and some can be seasonal, my workload can vary a lot on a month-to-month basis. As a result, on selected projects and tasks, I may work with other freelancers and manage a small team of experts who complement my services to ensure I can support all of my clients in the best possible way. All of these team members are carefully selected and these individuals are always introduced to my clients in advance so this is fully transparent.
If you are looking for flexible support to enable you to grow your business, need some help with hotel or general operational support to free up some of your precious time for you or one of your team members, don't hesitate, it's never too late, make that call or send me an email and start to delegate!
I offer a 30-minute free consultation, feel free to contact me, by emailing me at Lon@TimePreciousPA.com or call me on +447803425552.
I look forward to hearing from you!
Kind regards,
Lonneke Macauley

Running an efficient business takes a lot of time and effort, I fully appreciate this and am here to assist you with this. This can come with budget constraints and therefore it may not be achievable to hire a full-time staff member to support your business.
So, why not get the benefit of a freelance team member you can delegate things to and partner up with, on a pay as you need basis? A dedicated go-to person, at a fraction of the cost of a full-time person. Someone you can trust and can help you with your productivity?
Whether it is in the capacity as a Virtual Executive Assistant (VEA), Virtual Private Assistant (VPA) or to take charge in your business as an Online Business Manager (OBM), it all depends on your needs and level of delegation you are comfortable with.
Please let me know what your challenges are, as the above list is not an exhaustive list of services.
Hospitality Management
People will forget what you said, forget what you did,
but people will never forget how you made them feel.

As a VA and OBM I work with different clients and have the flexibility to take on projects throughout the year. Although a lot of Hotel & Event planning is done virtually I am available, from time to time, for onsite support. I am Cheshire based and offer ad hoc / freelance Hotel Management Support whether this is for Back of House or Front of House Functions to assist hotels with holiday, sick or last-minute cover.
Prices for these services are done on a project basis and vary depending on the length of time and assistance needed.
