Services

A practical set of services to help organisations work more effectively with the tools they already have

I provide a range of flexible solutions designed to help teams get more from the tools they use on a daily basis.  Whether it’s a one-off fix or ongoing support, my goal is to make processes more efficient and reliable, data more transparent, and teams more confident.

Automation Solutions

Reducing manual work and improving reliability

Many spreadsheet-based processes evolve organically and become increasingly manual and prone to errors.  My focus is on creating workflows that are easier to maintain and that function seamlessly month after month.

How I can help

  • Data transformation: Replacing manual steps with automated refreshes and logic.
  • Simplification: Streamlining complex spreadsheets to remove inefficient or redundant elements.
  • Template design: Creating structured, reliable files that support long-term use.

Typical outcomes:

  • Faster, more consistent processes
  • Fewer workarounds and hidden errors
  • Improved data flows between processes and systems

See the Case Studies page for an example of automation work.

Reporting Solutions

Clear, trustworthy reporting that supports decisions

Reporting is only valuable if it’s timely, reliable, and aligned with how business decisions are made.  Spreadsheets are often the primary tool, but my solutions are always designed with the wider system context in mind.  The aim is to make reporting work smoothly in practice.

How I can help

  • Development: Creating new or improving existing reports for better clarity and efficiency
  • Data integrity: Reshaping the data structure to support consistent outputs
  • Interim solutions: Providing viable temporary or proof-of-concept reporting until longer-term alternatives are available

Typical outcomes:

  • Reports that are easier to maintain and adapt as requirements change
  • Consistent, transparent data structures
  • Clarification of what information is genuinely needed

See the Case Studies page for an example of reporting work.

Training Solutions

Helping teams build confidence with the tools they use every day

Spreadsheet functionality is continually developing, and in the middle of busy day jobs, it can be challenging for teams to keep up.  My aim is to close the knowledge gap by focusing on the most useful essentials.

How I can help

I design short, tailored sessions which can be delivered one-to-one or to small teams.  To make them as effective and immediately applicable as possible, I try to use live examples from the teams’ own data.   Common topics include:

  • Modern Excel fundamentals, including dynamic arrays
  • Power Query basics
  • How to improve spreadsheet structure and consistency

Typical outcomes:

  • Teams feeling more capable and less reliant on workarounds
  • More sustainable spreadsheet practices
  • Greater awareness of what can be achieved with the tools
