Outsourcing's New Horizon: Why US Firms could be Eyeing UK Executive Assistants US companies are expanding their search for white-collar professionals across the Atlantic. With the rising demand for high-skilled workers, American businesses find the UK's lower salaries, tax incentives, and favorable exchange rates increasingly attractive. This shift, highlighted by a Wall Street Journal article, is especially notable in sectors like tech, consulting, and law. But could UK-based Executive Assistants be the solution for US firms facing skyrocketing salaries at home? In major US cities, Executive Assistants' roles, especially those supporting senior executives, command salaries upwards of $250,000, reflecting their evolving role from administrative support to strategic partners. Meanwhile, their UK counterparts, despite offering similar levels of professionalism and skill, earn significantly less. This trend raises important questions about the future of global hiring practices and the potential for UK-based EAs to provide competitive advantages for American companies. Dive into our latest post to explore the financial, cultural, and operational benefits of this emerging outsourcing strategy, and consider whether it's time your business looked across the Atlantic for your next Executive Assistant. #Outsourcing #ExecutiveAssistants #USUKPartnerships
