Edward R G.

Need Excel financial models that run in seconds, not minutes? I build the world's fastest Excel models: • Tested against AI (2× faster than Claude Fable 5 and Opus) • Backed by 18+ years in Fortune 500 finance and $600K+ earned on Upwork, with 130+ 5 Star reviews. What sets me apart is the rare combination of deep corporate finance and sales experience (12 years as a Finance Manager and Demand Planner at StarKist and 14 years in Sales Analysis/Forecasting at GSK) and elite-level Excel/VBA engineering. I don't just build spreadsheets — I replace broken processes with automated, one-button systems that last for years. I've been quoted in Forbes for AI-powered data analysis, and my models have supported over $1B in annual sales. Genuine AI mastery, not just buzzwords. I benchmark my Excel/VBA solutions against AI outputs and know exactly where AI accelerates the work and where it needs a skilled hand to clean it up. For the best AI outputs in Excel, you need to know WHAT to ask AI, but sometimes you need to tell AI HOW to do some Excel processes - AI does not always pick the most robust or fastest solutions; I do. I fix $50/hr Excel "Expert" work in VBA and file optimization. In the US, I am ranked in the top 0.09% of Upworkers for VBA and in the top 0.15% for financial reporting, and the top 0.49% in Excel overall (Note: these are all better than the top 1%) Here's what I can build for you: 📊 Financial Models: P&L forecasting, budgeting, variance analysis, and scenario planning built for speed and accuracy ⚡ VBA & Excel Automation: eliminate manual work with macros that run 10× faster than ChatGPT-generated code 📈 Executive Dashboards: intuitive scorecards and charts that give leadership instant visibility into KPIs 🔄 Data Pipelines: Power Query, data cleaning, and automated reporting from any source (QuickBooks, Nielsen, ERP exports) 🏭 Operations & Supply Chain Models: demand planning, inventory tracking, WOS reports, and expiry management ✅ Top Rated Plus | 125+ 5.0 stars | 130+ completed jobs | 100% Job Success | $600K+ earned on Upwork ✅ Replaced Hyperion Essbase with a custom Excel P&L model still in use, supporting $900M+ in annual sales ✅ Automated Nielsen data processing for GlaxoSmithKline (a $37B healthcare company) and saved hundreds of staff hours per year ✅ Reduced trade funding release time by 3 weeks (50% faster) at GlaxoSmithKline ✅ "I highly recommend Ed for his technical ability combined with his business acumen — a winning combination!" — My largest Upwork client Send me a message describing your project, and I'll respond within a few hours.
