About Sarah Bignell

I am a self-employed Private PA and enjoy working for a small  Client base on a part time basis, so that I can give 100% to the role. 


Having lived in Wandsworth Common, SW London for 15 years, I moved out with my family to a village near Haslemere, Surrey in 2016.


Prior to becoming self-employed in 2008, I was a full time Private Household PA for a year and then a Virtual Assistant/ Remote PA for a Lifestyle Management company in SW London, where I managed the personal lives of over 20 Clients. I felt I was able to recreate the work life balance for them and enjoyed making a difference to their busy lives.


My experience working as a PA in Investment Banks, Property and Concierge enabled me to gain invaluable experience in time management, communication, organisational and multitasking skills which have helped me to become the Private PA I am today.


In my free time, I enjoy playing tennis, walking, cycling, sailing and riding.

​Whether you are a private individual needing help with tasks or a small business who needs some admin support, I can offer a highly discreet and professional service.

TESTIMONIALS

Testimonials

"From July 2009 until August 2010 we went on a family gap year to the Americas. The planning of the trip took two years and the renting and organisation of our personal effects a year in advance. This process was made significantly easier with the use of Bellevue PA. Prior to our trip we worked with Sarah so she was familiar with all our personal administration and also the management of our property. We left the house exactly as it was and Sarah literally took over and did not stop until our return. During our time away, Sarah managed all our banking, monitored our credit cards and post which was fortunate as certain things cropped up, e.g. fraudulent use of a credit card and expired driving licence which without Sarah being here in the UK would have proved difficult to manage and would have eaten into our adventure abroad.


Sarah also managed our property brilliantly. Working and coordinating with all third parties, ensuring items were serviced when they should be and basically being there for the tenants and reducing our involvement. We left the house with everything in situ and Sarah organised the removal of all our furniture, possessions into storage and we returned to a clean and organised house; it was as if we had not been away.


The key to the success of this arrangement was that we, as a family, were able to enjoy our gap year with only minimal interruption. We were able to embark and enjoy this adventure of a lifetime knowing that someone who was highly efficient and that we could trust with our personal information was in a position to handle the 'everyday' life we had left behind for us."

Priest, Wandsworth

"Sarah is an extremely efficient and dedicated PA. Working in the city, I never have time to deal with my own To Do List - having someone like Sarah on hand is a godsend. She is quick, bright and very personable. I highly recommend her."

Laudus, London NW6

"Sarah has worked as our PA for over 8 years now and handled a number of different situations very well indeed. She is totally trustworthy, discreet and responsible and a pleasure to work with."

C-M, Kensington

"As a freelance PR, I have the occasional need for an 'extra pair of hands' and have now used Bellevue PA twice. Both times, I have been very pleased with the professionalism of the service in terms of understanding the brief, carrying out the tasks involved, on time and within budget. Now I have found her, I will certainly be using Sarah's services again and cannot recommend her highly enough."


Sarah M, London SW17


Sarah ran the family admin, paying bills, managing diary, writing letters and organising events. She was very calm, competent and level headed and responded extremely well to pressure when things were particularly hectic. She also assisted me with a property development by organising contracts, papers etc, all in a most organised and professional manner. I found her completely discrete, thoroughly professional and very nice to have around
