Board Prep Support VA
Arrive at every board meeting fully prepared. Your VA compiles packs, researches agenda items, coordinates with board members, and prepares briefing documents so every meeting runs efficiently.
Who this support is for
Executives and internal coordinators preparing recurring board or committee meetings with contributions from finance, legal and operating teams.
A board prep VA compiles board packs, researches agenda items, coordinates with board members, and prepares briefing documents so every meeting is productive and well-organized.
What your assistant can take on
- Board pack compilation
- Agenda preparation
- Pre-read document assembly
- Action item tracking
- Meeting minute drafting
What we need to begin
The meeting date, approved agenda, contributor list, document repository, distribution permissions and the internal owner responsible for approving the final pack.
From request to follow-through
- Create a contribution schedule with a named owner and review date for each agenda item. Flag missing inputs early.
- Assemble approved material into a controlled pack, check versions and page references, and maintain a clear list of unresolved comments.
- Distribute only the authorized version, record delivery and carry agreed actions into the follow-up register after the meeting.
The work you receive
A pack checklist, contributor tracker, controlled distribution list, meeting logistics brief and draft action register.
How quality is reviewed
Reconcile the pack against the agenda, confirm recipient permissions and verify that all draft or superseded files are clearly separated from approved material.
A practical example
A finance attachment changes after the review deadline. The assistant identifies the affected pages, asks the approver to confirm the replacement and records which version was distributed.
Where responsibility stays
Directors, counsel and the company secretary retain governance decisions, formal minutes approval and statutory responsibilities.
Build a useful handoff
Start the consultation with a recent example of this work, the systems involved and the result you expect. We will use those details to agree on coverage, ownership and the review process before support begins.
