NZ Virtual Assist was founded by Michael de Tombe, a highly experienced Dutch business professional with an international career spanning creative marketing, sales management, tourism & hospitality, and online business operations, with a passion for helping Kiwi businesses stay organised, productive, and ahead of the curve.
After decades working in fast-paced, client-driven environments across Europe and New Zealand, Michael created NZ Virtual Assist to help business owners reclaim their time, streamline their operations, and grow with confidence — without the stress of handling everything alone.

His background includes creative, senior and leadership roles with major international brands such as Viking Cruises, Adobe, Tele2, and multiple global hospitality groups, where he managed teams, clients, projects, and high-value customer relationships.
In recent years, Michael has worked as a Creative Director and self-employed Business Owner, overseeing online marketing, social media, content creation, graphic design, website management, accounting, and HR for international brands operating across New Zealand, the UK, Australia, Europe, and the Middle East.
