Our Day in the Life of series has been very popular with DeskDemon’s users and we would like to extend it!

We know from our forum boards at the Hub that networking and support is important to you all. Hearing about each other's work and offering advice and a helping hand can be invaluable. But not only that, it's interesting to hear about the experience of others. It puts things in perspective and offers us the chance to see how others got to where they are, overcoming challenges, and what they think of their role. And that's why our Day in the Life of series is so fascinating.

We're looking for PAs, secretaries and Administrators from a wide range of sectors and from the smallest to the largest organisations, so get in touch if you would like to share your thoughts with us all.

If you would like to be featured on DeskDemon’s Day in the Life series, please complete the form below and submit a photo and we’ll be in touch soon.
