What is outsourced administration support?
Outsourcing administration support is the process of allocating certain admin related tasks to a team or team member overseas to complete. By outsourcing admin services it allows local teams to focus on high value, revenue generating tasks that make a real difference to a business’s bottom line.
Back office admin can be crippling to business growth - it’s one of the main driving forces behind employee turnover rates. This is because highly qualified staff are often being assigned to back office, routine admin tasks that distract them from completing the tasks they should be doing in their role. This in turn can have a major impact on an employee’s job satisfaction and can lead to decreased productivity or worse, resignation.
When you hire offshore admin support, your team or team member can complete tasks such as:
- Diary management
- CRM and database management
- Compiling and preparing reports, presentations and correspondence
- Liaising with staff, suppliers and clients
- Implementing and maintaining administrative processes
- Organising travel plans
- Data entry
- Transcription
- Debt collection
- Paraplanning.
Why do businesses outsource administration support offshore?
Businesses are finding that their highly paid staff are continuously stuck doing routine admin tasks instead of focusing their time on building client relationships and other high value tasks that contribute significantly to their bottom line. Because of this, businesses are utilising outsourced staffing solutions to free up time and create capacity in their business.
By adding additional capabilities of an offshore administrative assistant, businesses are improving their focus on core business whilst increasing turnaround times and improving quality of output. As a result, these businesses are also experiencing a decrease in staff retention rates and an increase in customer satisfaction rates.
