Executive Virtual Assistant
Hi, I’m Lisa — the face behind Ivory Desk.
I bring calm, clarity, and capable support to the behind-the-scenes of your business.
With a background spanning executive assistance, marketing, operations, and event coordination, I’ve supported directors, managed complex diaries, led high-stakes events, and built systems that keep things moving — even in unpredictable times.
Born and raised in Zimbabwe, I learned early how to adapt, problem-solve, and bring order to chaos — whether that meant helping displaced farmers navigate crisis, building a thriving equestrian centre from scratch, or running businesses while raising three children. I’ve never shied away from a challenge, and I’ve always believed in doing things well.
Whether I’m managing your inbox, prepping for a launch, coordinating travel or team workflows — I’m here to lighten your load with trust, discretion, and efficiency. My goal is simple: to give you back time, space, and the peace of mind that comes from knowing things are taken care of.
Let’s move your business forward — together.

What to expect
-
We start with a free 20-minute call to discuss what you need support with and how I can help. We’ll talk through your business, your current pain points, and the kind of working relationship you’re looking for.
🗓️ Booked via my online calendar at a time that suits you.
-
After the call, I’ll send over a tailored proposal with the package that best suits your needs. You’ll receive a clear outline of what’s included, pricing, and next steps.
📄 No pressure — just clarity and options.
-
Once you confirm, I’ll send over a welcome pack with everything you need to get started:
Service agreement
First invoice
Onboarding questionnaire
Tools access checklist (email, calendar, systems etc.)
✍️ It’s all wrapped up in one smooth process to save you time.
-
We’ll begin with a structured onboarding session — this might include a quick call or Loom video walkthroughs — to walk through your current processes, goals, and tools. I’ll get familiar with your workflows, tone of voice, and systems.
🧩 This is where I step in and start making things run more smoothly.
-
From here, I integrate quietly into your operations — checking in regularly, reporting on progress, and always staying one step ahead. Whether you need daily touchpoints or a weekly summary, I’ll work in the way that suits you best.
📬 You’ll always know what’s happening — without needing to micromanage it.
