About Mella
Mella was founded by Michèle Wells — a New Zealand professional with over 35 years of experience spanning banking IT, property investment, construction, legal administration, and small business management.
Michèle works directly with small business owners to untangle the admin, get the numbers right, and implement smarter systems — so you can focus on what you do best.
Based on the Hibiscus Coast and available across the North Shore, Auckland, and beyond — hybrid and remote engagements welcome.
What I Do
Flexible, part-time support tailored to small businesses. No full-time overheads — just the expertise you need, when you need it.
Full-cycle bookkeeping using Xero — accurate, compliant, and stress-free.
Organised, reliable administration that keeps your business running smoothly.
Keep projects on track and systems aligned — from construction to professional services.
Hands-on technology expertise from someone who has been in IT since the 1980s.
Practical AI tools applied to real business problems — not buzzwords, but results.
Practical, experienced advice from someone who has built and run businesses herself.
Why Mella
Not a generalist virtual assistant. Not a fresh graduate. A seasoned professional who has run businesses, managed teams, and solved real problems across decades.
Part-time, project-based, or ongoing — Mella works around your needs, not the other way around. No minimum hours, no lock-in contracts.
Michèle has been administrating Xero across multiple industries for years. She doesn't need training — she can often improve how you're using it.
From ANZ banking systems in the 1980s to AI tools today, Michèle adapts fast and solves technology problems independently.
No account managers, no handoffs. You work directly with Michèle — someone who is invested in your business doing well.
Experience Across
Mella brings cross-industry insight that generalist bookkeepers simply don't have.
