Cost to Hire a Virtual Assistant in New York City

Unlike many virtual personal assistant companies in NYC that lock you into set plans with weekly or monthly minimums (and often keep your VA’s identity hidden until after you’ve signed up!), we do things differently.

You’ll receive personalized candidate matches and we’ll take care of all interview scheduling at no cost. If you choose to hire one of our candidates, there is a simple a one-time $575 Placement Fee—no ongoing plans or minimum commitments. You’ll enjoy direct communication with your VA, in whatever way works best for you. Because we believe the strongest working relationships are built on openness and trust.

You pay your PA their wages directly. A virtual Assistant in NYC is typically looking for $30-40/hr, with the minimum being $25/hr.

  • The Middle’s assistants are based in New York City and Los Angeles, so while they work virtually, you still get the comfort of knowing they’re local. This means they understand your city, can offer a personal touch when needed, and even provide occasional in-person support, giving you the perfect balance of flexibility, convenience, and trust.

  • Virtual assistants offer remote administrative and executive support. Virtual assistants in NYC charge $25-$40/hr, depending on experience and scope of work.

  • Virtual assistants in New York City manage the routine administrative and online tasks that can overwhelm your day. They handle things like organizing your inbox, scheduling meetings, booking travel, purchasing gifts, managing online files and drives, conducting research, and anything else in your life that can be done online—all to free up your time and help your day run more smoothly.

  • When you’re looking for a virtual assistant, you want someone whose experience and qualifications align with your specific needs. That’s where we come in. We pre-screen candidates to ensure they’re qualified before any interviews take place, evaluating key skills like strong communication, organizational abilities, time management, tech proficiency, flexibility, and adaptability. We also look for candidates who are trustworthy with confidential information, capable problem-solvers, and experienced in administrative tasks like managing calendars, scheduling appointments, handling emails, and organizing files.

With the right guidance, they’ll streamline your tasks, lighten your workload, and keep projects on track.
