Virtual Executive Assistant Support That Matches the Pace of French Business
French business leaders are visionary, creative, and often deeply involved in every aspect of the company – which also means their schedules and inboxes are overloaded.
At DonnaPro, we help CEOs in Paris, Lyon, Bordeaux and beyond delegate intelligently – giving them back control over their time and mental bandwidth.
Our executive assistants are trained to work with founders in fast-moving sectors, handling everything from internal workflows and SOPs to travel planning, investor follow-ups, and inbox triage.
It’s not just about getting tasks done – it’s about running a more focused, agile company.
What Makes A DonnaPro EA Your Highest-ROI Team Member?
Real Human EAs Trained on AI Tools
DonnaPro assistants are real people with business judgement and interpersonal intelligence. Every EA is trained on AI tools and supported by DonnaPro’s internal IT team, so you get AI efficiency without losing human context and ownership.
Built for CEOs and Founders Only
DonnaPro is not a general admin service. Every EA, training programme, and support system is built around the CEO or founder who needs executive-level judgement, confidentiality, and follow-through.
Donna is remote
DonnaPro is fully remote by design. No office space, equipment costs, payroll taxes, or employer overhead. Your EA works from the EU, integrates into your existing tools, and delivers without requiring a physical presence.
Donna is safe & secure
DonnaPro EAs work under formal confidentiality protocols and GDPR-compliant workflows. Every assistant is rigorously vetted, supported on secure setup and data handling, and NDA arrangements are available on request.
EU-Based and GDPR-Compliant
Every DonnaPro EA is based in the European Union and operates under GDPR-compliant workflows, strict NDA, and formal confidentiality agreements - a hiring requirement for sensitive commercial and stakeholder work.
60-Day Zero-Commitment Trial
The first 60 days are commitment-free. Test the relationship, assess the fit, and continue only if the support is genuinely useful. No lock-in, no pressure, no sunk cost.
Donna masters your industry
DonnaPro has placed EAs with CEOs and founders across 110+ industries. Your assistant is matched by industry familiarity, communication style, and the specific workflows that matter in your sector.
*No Commitment for the first 2 months. Zero Risk.
We Speak Fluent English - and Just Enough French to Get Things Done
DonnaPro assistants operate in English, which is the language of global business – especially for internationally focused French founders.
If a document or message comes in French, we’ll use translation tools and smart systems to act on it quickly.
But if you need someone to lead meetings or write copy in French – we’re not the best fit.
This model is designed for founders in France who value speed, clarity, and results – regardless of native language.
Client Testimonials: What Our Customers Say About Their “Donnas”...
My mindset before was that I need to do it all... it was slowing me down and costing my business money. Working with my EA allowed me to focus on new business opportunities that I didn’t have time for earlier, and it directly impacted my business growth.
DonnaPro doesn’t just connect you with an assistant and walk away. They constantly recruit, train, and equip their personnel. When our assistant showed up, she was ready not to learn, but to lead. We didn’t have to recruit, train, or worry about compliance – we just had to plug her into our work.
I’ve been working with virtual assistants for the past decade, and I think that right now I’m at a point where I feel that my search for the perfect virtual assistants is over.
★★★★★
I meant it when I said I needed help, and DonnaPro has really delivered. It has really impacted how I work and it has allowed me to focus on the things that really mattered.
Esteban A. MirandaCEO @ European Food Banks Federation / Non-Profit / NGO★★★★★
Working with DonnaPro and Grace has made a real difference to both my work and personal life. I feel more prepared, less rushed, and things I used to think about but never get around to are finally getting done. Honestly, it’s the best support I’ve had in years.
Andrew RobertsCEO & Partner / Biotech & Pharmaceutical Industry★★★★★
After a long time managing everything on my own in the start-up world, I realised I needed help. My EA has been amazing in managing my calendar, travel plans, T&E, and other small yet time-consuming tasks. We had morning check-ins at the beginning that paid off well. Now, I can much better focus on growing the business. Working with a Donna through a trusted virtual assistant agency makes delegation friction-free.
Jochen R.CEO @ MedTech Company / Medical Device Industry★★★★★
I used to manage my own travel, emails, and calendar, even while running multiple businesses. Then my EA (Romina) stepped in. She’s proactive, reliable, and keeps everything running smoothly without me having to ask. Our daily check-ins keep me on top of things, and her inbox summaries are a lifesaver when I’m travelling. I finally have the headspace to focus on what matters.
Dominic WhiteInvestor, Entrepreneur & Adventurer / Financial Services Industry★★★★★
My EA, Petra, has been very helpful during a particularly chaotic time in one of my businesses. With minimal guidance, she quickly adapted, proactively started searching for solutions, and delivered results. I love how I can just ping her on WhatsApp, and things get done seamlessly.
Daniel WeisslerFounder @ winTEC Solutions / Automotive Software Industry★★★★★
My EA doesn’t just complete tasks; she proactively identifies and solves potential issues before they become problems. Whether it’s a scheduling conflict or a looming deadline, my EA is always one step ahead, saving me countless headaches.
Lily SovinCo-Founder @ optika-oftalmos.com / Eyewear Industry★★★★★
I’m super happy with DonnaPro and with Angels. Even though we’ve only been working together for a few weeks, she already feels fully integrated into my business. I really appreciate how proactive she is and how she always brings practical suggestions. It’s such a relief to finally have four eyes instead of just two. We’re definitely on track to becoming a seamless team.
Marie UtschFounder & CEO @ marieutsch.com / Digital Marketing Industry★★★★★
Three months in, and it’s a relief to have someone who fully gets my tone of voice. Saga handles my inbox with confidence, answers questions independently, and keeps things moving without me needing to chase anyone – even while I was on my first real holiday in years.

Book a free strategy call ›FAQs: What French CEOs Ask Before Hiring a Executive Virtual Assistant
Can I hire a virtual assistant in France through DonnaPro?⌄
Our EAs aren’t based in France, but they’re located within the EU and aligned with French time zones. We work with French CEOs daily.
Do your assistants speak French?⌄
Our assistants communicate in English, but can handle occasional French content using tech tools. If you need bilingual fluency – consider a local hire.
What’s the cost comparison with hiring in France?⌄
Hiring an in-house assistant in France costs €84,000+/year fully loaded once employer social contributions (~42%) are included – before recruitment and equipment. DonnaPro’s part-time option costs €2,700/month flat. If your workload demands full-time support, the full-time virtual executive assistant option at €6,500/month is cheaper than a direct French hire – with no employer contributions, no recruitment fee, and no HR overhead on your side.
Are DonnaPro assistants secure and compliant?⌄
Yes. Every assistant is GDPR-compliant, vetted, and bound by strict confidentiality protocols. We take your data security as seriously as you do.
What tasks can I outsource to my EA?⌄
From inbox and calendar to research, client communication, proposals, and internal SOPs – DonnaPro assistants are trained to think ahead, not just follow orders.
How quickly can we start working together?⌄
Our typical matching time is under 10 days. Onboarding is quick, and you’ll be supported from day one.
