Excel VBA Developer & Financial Controller | Reporting & Automation

I build custom business systems in Excel VBA and Python that replace manual work with software your team actually uses. I've worked as a financial controller for 12+ years and built 70+ automations, delivering CRMs, invoice systems, inventory tools, financial reports and operations dashboards for service businesses, taxi companies, manufacturers and landlords. Most businesses don't need expensive subscription software. They need a system that fits the way they already work, that they own outright, and that their team can use from day one without touching a single formula. That's what I build: userform-based systems that feel like real software inside Excel. Search, buttons, dashboards and automated workflows, with the spreadsheets hidden in the background. ✅ What I build: - CRM & customer management systems - Invoice, billing & payment tracking systems - Booking & scheduling systems - SKU, product & inventory management - Financial reporting: budget vs actual, month-end reports & cash flow - Reporting dashboards & KPI overviews - Workflow automation that removes repetitive admin - Custom web apps when a business outgrows Excel 💬 Results & client feedback: ⭐ Taxi Management System – customer records, payments, a planning centre and WhatsApp booking in one system. "Jacob is the best freelancer I've worked with for VBA." ⭐ SKU & Description Generator – thousands of product variations generated instantly for a UK manufacturer. "Nothing short of a masterpiece… making my work 90% easier." ✅ How I work: 1. Short call or message to understand how your business actually runs 2. Clear scope, price and timeline before any work starts 3. Build in stages, with demo videos so you see progress early 4. Testing on your real data, then handover with a walkthrough 5. Support after delivery, because many of my clients come back for phase 2 🎥 See my work before you hire: I share full business system builds with 60,000+ followers on TikTok and 7,900+ subscribers on YouTube. You can watch exactly how I build before we ever talk. If you're tired of manual processes, scattered spreadsheets or slow monthly reports, send me a message with a short description of your workflow. I'll tell you honestly what I'd build and what it would take.
