@josecervera
Remote operations and business manager specializing in e-commerce, logistics, compliance.
What I'm looking for
I’m a self-directed operations professional with 7+ years of experience managing business workflows, financial documents, bilingual communications, client relations, and compliance—both in employed and fully independent contexts. I currently operate as a self-managed touring artist and independent business owner, running logistics, revenue operations, e-commerce, and digital presence location-independent, with end-to-end ownership and no team.
I bring a proven track record of accuracy and autonomy: I’ve managed high-volume event POS cash handling with zero discrepancies, processed hundreds of financial document files with full accuracy, and handled 20+ legal documents weekly with zero errors. I’m QuickBooks Certified and I use systems thinking to keep scheduling, vendor coordination, inventory tracking, and compliance documentation reliable—while communicating clearly in English and Spanish.
