Upwork
Freelance • 4 yrs 4 mos
Operations & Systems Coordinator
Dec 2025 - Present • 5 mos
Responsible for managing internal data systems, reporting processes, and day-to-day operational workflows across the business. Key responsibilities and achievements: — Built and maintained Excel and Google Sheets reporting templates used by the wider team for weekly and monthly performance tracking. — Reduced manual reporting time by redesigning spreadsheet systems and introducing automated formulas and structured data entry processes. — Managed data accuracy across multiple spreadsheets and ensured consistent formatting and version control across the team. — Acted as the internal point of contact for anything spreadsheet or data-related, supporting colleagues with technical queries and building solutions to recurring process problems. — Coordinated workflows between departments, identifying bottlenecks and recommending improvements to how information was captured, stored, and reported. This role gave me a grounded, practical understanding of how businesses actually operate day-to-day — and what gets in the way. That experience directly shapes how I approach every automation project I take on now.

Key responsibilities and achievements: — Managed large datasets across Excel and Google Sheets, maintaining accuracy and consistency across all records. — Developed automated solutions to replace repetitive manual tasks — including formula-based reporting systems that reduced weekly processing time significantly. — Produced regular management reports covering key business metrics, formatted and structured for clear decision-making at leadership level. — Became the internal go-to person for Excel and spreadsheet queries, supporting colleagues and training team members on more efficient ways of working with data. — Identified recurring inefficiencies in data handling processes and proposed practical improvements that were adopted across the team. The experience of solving real data and process problems within real business constraints — with limited tools and tight deadlines — is what shaped my approach to client automation work today.
