What I'm looking for

I’m seeking fully remote independent-contractor work supporting migration, education, legal-administration or professional-services businesses through case coordination, document management, client communication, billing support and reliable digital operations.

I am a bilingual English-Spanish Remote Operations and Legal Administration Contractor based in Spain, available for fully remote international engagements.

I bring more than six years of experience supporting an Australian migration consultancy, where I worked across migration operations, case coordination, client communication, document management, billing and payment administration. My work included client intake, questionnaires, document checklists, evidence collection and quality checks, file organisation, deadline tracking, client follow-up, preparation of administrative information for Registered Migration Agent review, and post-lodgement administrative support.

I am an advanced daily user of Migration Manager and have experience with Microsoft 365, Outlook, Google Workspace, Monday.com, Microsoft Teams, Zoom, Missive, Adobe Acrobat, Dropbox Business, QuickBooks, Stripe and business banking platforms. I have supported quotations, invoicing, payment follow-up, payment plans, refund coordination, deposit records and client-fund administration.

Alongside migration operations, I have legal-administration and notarial-support experience involving confidential files, document collection, file organisation, client follow-up, signatures, property and family-law documentation, and regulatory research. I hold a Bachelor of Laws from Colombia, a Master’s in Digital Business from Spain, Australian qualifications in leadership and project management, and an Intuit bookkeeping certification.

I am particularly interested in remote roles involving legal operations, practice administration, client onboarding, case or matter coordination, document control, compliance administration, billing, accounts receivable, customer operations and professional-services support.

I work calmly and accurately in document-intensive, client-facing and regulated environments. I am comfortable working independently across time zones, using secure systems and following established workflows. For migration and legal-support work, I provide administrative and operational support under the direction and final review of the supervising Registered Migration Agent, legal practitioner or authorised professional. I do not provide independent migration or legal advice, determine eligibility, represent clients or lodge applications independently.

I am open to hourly, part-time, retainer, project-based and fixed-fee contractor arrangements with international companies that can engage a professional working remotely from Spain.
