It’s time to celebrate International Women’s Day! Over the years, we've witnessed a remarkable shift in the landscape of business, with more and more women stepping into leadership roles, starting their own ventures, and making significant strides in traditionally male-dominated industries. This progress is a testament to the resilience, determination, and talent that women bring to the table.
Get to know us!International Women’s Day is a time to celebrate the incredible achievements and contributions of women across the world. In the world of business, women have been breaking barriers and leaving an indelible mark on industries, and it’s no different here at Virtual Headquarters. We are a team of majority women, and we are all incredibly proud of what we do here, so let’s meet the main women behind Virtual HQ!
Francesca keeps the cogs turning here at Virtual Headquarters and is the definition of girl boss. Having worked for Virtual Headquarters for over 8 years, there really isn’t anything that she doesn’t know about Virtual Offices! She is a proud puppy mum and super athletic (puts the rest of us to shame) and Virtual HQ wouldn’t be where it is today without her leadership, and determination.
Fun fact – Francesca has met the Queen several times and even got married in her private church!

Emma brings in the business at Virtual HQ, and balances being a mum, a colleague, and a manager with ease! She has lots of experience when it comes to Virtual Offices, and again, there isn’t any question she can’t answer. She is always willing to help, be that colleagues or clients, and is one of the kindest people we know. Virtual Headquarters is so lucky to have Emma!
Fun fact – Emma has recently got a new puppy called Doris!

Connie’s attention to detail is second to none, and she takes her role as Compliance Manager very seriously. Connie cares about keeping your business safe and protecting its reputation, and again runs a tight ship when it comes to compliance! She is super intelligent and another strong female leader here at Virtual Headquarters. If you need someone to spellcheck for you, send you a funny GIF to cheer you up, or explain the legalities of a Virtual Office, Connie is your gal!
Fun fact – Connie is great at knitting!
