IT operations and automation for growing businesses.
I look after systems, Microsoft 365 and Azure – and automate the processes that still run by hand, by spreadsheet or by word of mouth. Set up securely, documented properly, usable by your team.

Services
Four areas that work hand in hand: a secure tenant is the base for any automation, and an intranet is only as good as the processes behind it.
Automation
Automating recurring work with Power Automate, Power Apps and APIs – from spreadsheet to dependable process.
- Power Automate cloud flows: approvals, notifications, data sync between Excel, SharePoint, Outlook and Teams
- Connecting external services via REST APIs, for example Trello for project control
- Power Apps as a front end for teams who don’t want to work in raw lists
Microsoft Cloud
Setting up, securing and structuring Microsoft 365 and Azure so your team actually enjoys working with it.
- Setting up and administering Microsoft 365 tenants
- Identity and access with Entra ID: users, groups, MFA, Conditional Access policies
- Structure for Teams and SharePoint: who sees what, where documents live
System Administration
Day-to-day IT operations, user management, networking and IT security – reliable and documented.
- User and permission management, onboarding and offboarding
- Windows clients and servers, updates and patch management
- Networking, Wi-Fi, VPN and firewall basics (including Fortinet)
Intranet & Knowledge Base
A SharePoint intranet where field staff and office find what they need – organised by role, not by folder.
- Role-based concept: field service, office, management
- SharePoint pages for procedures, safety, first aid, contacts and training
- Digital requests with Microsoft Forms and an approval workflow
Selected projects
Real projects from mid-sized businesses, each with a diagram, approach and outcome. Client names are anonymised.
Automation, Project management
Digital project control for heat-pump installations
A Trello board that thinks along: each card is a customer project, each phase has its checklist, and Power Automate makes sure no step gets skipped.

Role-based intranet and knowledge base
A SharePoint intranet with separate portals for field service, office and management – including digital requests and embedded apps.
Read case studyAutomation, Customer communication
Automated maintenance reminders for around 1,600 customers
Two spreadsheets became one clean equipment list in SharePoint – and that became a three-step email series that prompts maintenance appointments automatically.
Read case studyHow I work
No thick concept paper up front, but small steps that quickly show whether something works.
- UnderstandI look at how the process really runs today – not how it’s written in the manual.
- PilotA first version with a small team and real data. Whatever doesn’t hold up gets dropped.
- Roll outOnly once the pilot convinces does the solution go to everyone – with a short introduction.
- Hand overYou get documentation that lets your team maintain the solution themselves.
Security is not an add-on
My roots are in IT security at a central bank. Before I automate anything, I check who has access to what. That matters for ten workstations just as much as for two and a half thousand.
