What the Members are Saying About The Assistant Room
Tracey Dockett
Administrative Business Lead
The most inspiring, confidence building, informative network for administrative professionals out there! As well as useful and relevant training, Jess and her team always provide a safe and positive environment for all of their members. I highly recommend joining The Assistant Room if you want to excel at your profession and have a supportive and friendly community by your side.
Charlotte Campbell
Global Operations Partner
The Assistant Room is the complete all-round support I’ve been searching for. From the amazing concierge service to the endless library of templates, and the invaluable monthly mentoring, it feels like someone has finally cracked the code on how to truly support EAs and other business support professionals. I feel more equipped, connected, and heard! I'd recommend it to anyone.
Hershey Hall
Executive Assistant to CEO
I’ve been a member of The Assistant Room for about 3 years now and I genuinely don’t know what I’d do without Jess and her incredible team. They support you, empower you, and their ability to turn the “impossible” into reality have been game-changing for me. Jess’s deep expertise and remarkable network of connections make navigating life as an EA feel so much easier. I am endlessly grateful and cannot recommend The Assistant Room highly enough.
Caitlin McCaroll
Senior EA to CEO
TAR is such an incredible network, community and support for all within the PA/EA industry. It's a fast-paced platform of events, workshops and learning. The concierge service service is fantastic; I personally have used this for Exec and Leadership meetings, dinners, hotel bookings and an entire company party. And my favourite part has to be the Community that Jess has pulled together – imagine the very best support professionals, sharing their recommendations, stories & advice – epic!
Gemma Murdoch
Executive Assistant to CEO
I have been enjoying everything The Assistant Room has to offer since I was the only EA at a small beauty brand during COVID. I felt quite isolated in my work until I unlocked a treasure trove of uplifting and inspiring assistants and I haven’t looked back since! You’ll find every resource you could think of here and the in-person events offer so much more than just networking.
Andreea Vilu
Executive Assistant
I joined The Assistant Room early in my career when I was looking for a community that truly understands what being a PA/EA means. After having a call with Jess, I instantly knew this was the right place for me and joined straight away. It’s been amazing ever since! Tamara helped me organise my Christmas party, and the whole process was so smooth and enjoyable. The events they host are always insightful, and the people I’ve met through them have been incredible. I honestly can’t imagine not being part of The Assistant Room anymore.
Abbie Connolly
Executive Assistant
The Assistant Room is fantastic. I have enjoyed every single event I have attended. This group is really like no other. It’s the first of its kind and I don’t believe there are another group of people that will be as passionate and supportive as Jess and the team. Before my maternity leave I would take every opportunity I could to network with other members and it’s always been the best time. I appreciate being a member and I wouldn’t chance it for the world!!!

Meet Jess, founder of The Assistant Room
Jessica Gardiner built The Assistant Room in 2016 because she knew, from the inside, that the PA and EA profession needed a dedicated space online and in-person.
A speaker, coach, consultant and podcast host, Jessica has spent the last decade championing assistants on the biggest stages and changing how businesses value the role. Named one of Management Today’s Top 35 Women Under 35 and with a LinkedIn community of over 40,000, she’s become the definitive voice for ambitious PAs and EAs worldwide.
But ask her what she’s proudest of, and she’ll tell you it’s this: a membership that has helped thousands of assistants step into their potential.
“The world’s best executives already know, their assistant is their greatest asset. I built The Assistant Room to make sure assistants know it too.”
