Meet The Team

Prior to launching my business in January 2020, I spent 10 years working in retail head offices for brands including Hobbs, Monsoon Accessorize, Ralph Lauren and Coach.  During that time, I held a range of analytical and operational roles across allocation, retail planning, inventory management and finance. My work focused on forecasting, stock management, financial analysis and cross-functional collaboration, always with a strong emphasis on accuracy, commercial awareness and process efficiency.

I developed a love for the detail: the numbers, the spreadsheets, the systems and the structure that keep businesses running smoothly behind the scenes. 

In 2020, I established ARVA to combine that decade of corporate experience with greater flexibility and autonomy. 

Since then, we have partnered with a variety of businesses, applying the same analytical thinking, organisation and process-driven approach to help streamline operations, improve efficiency and create clarity behind the scenes.

Sharon is the steady foundation behind smooth, well-run businesses. With extensive experience supporting leadership teams and managing high-volume administrative environments, she brings structure, organisation and calm efficiency to every client she works with.

From inbox and diary management to documentation, data systems and formal meeting support, Sharon ensures nothing is missed and everything runs as it should. Her exceptional attention to detail and ability to remain composed under pressure make her particularly strong in process-driven environments.

Warm, reliable and highly organised, Sharon creates the operational stability that allows businesses to function seamlessly behind the scenes.

Anna combines hands-on business ownership experience with a strong creative eye and structured approach to communication. Having previously run her own business, she understands the demands of juggling client communication, events, content and daily operations.

She brings particular strength in social media management — planning, creating and organising content that is consistent, aligned and professional. Anna ensures businesses show up confidently online while also keeping inboxes, communications and internal processes running smoothly.

Supportive, proactive and highly reliable, Anna strengthens both the internal organisation and external presence of the businesses she works with. 

Rachel brings over two decades of business ownership experience alongside a dynamic, solutions-driven mindset. She thrives in fast-moving environments and is known for her ability to quickly assess needs and take decisive action.

She has successfully supported clients through full recruitment processes — from sourcing and shortlisting candidates to pre-interviewing and identifying the right cultural and operational fit. Her instinct for people and business alignment makes her a powerful asset during growth phases.

Rachel also excels at operational problem-solving, confidently handling supplier correspondence, utilities management and time-sensitive tasks. Proactive, productive and naturally resourceful, she helps businesses move forward with clarity and momentum. 

Alisha brings over 12 years of experience delivering reliable bookkeeping and accountancy support to Limited Companies and Sole Traders. Her expertise spans bookkeeping, payroll, VAT returns, self-assessment tax returns, end-of-year accounts, and wider financial administration.

She provides a calm, dependable presence for business owners — ensuring financial processes run smoothly, compliantly, and without stress. 

Alisha takes pride in delivering an efficient, end-to-end service that gives clients clarity, control, and the freedom to focus on growing their business.

Rachael supports business owners through growth, challenge, and change, bringing experience in customer service, sales, marketing, and high-level PA support.

With a natural talent for tele sales and relationship-building, she combines a warm, engaging communication style with strong commercial awareness. She has a knack for seeing the bigger picture, proactively identifying new opportunities and suggesting strategic routes to support long-term growth.

With a background in hospitality and hands-on experience supporting a growing family business, Rachael thrives on building strong relationships and being part of a company’s progression.
