What I'm looking for

I’m looking for operations roles where disciplined workflows, stakeholder coordination, and quality assurance drive faster delivery—plus opportunities to improve systems, strengthen documentation, and reduce rework.

I’m an Operations & Workflow Specialist with 9+ years of coordinating distributed teams using Microsoft Teams and structured Workflow Management Systems. I align multiple stakeholders, timelines, and deliverables so operational chaos doesn’t derail execution.

As Operations Manager at Bookcraft Africa, I oversee end-to-end publishing operations across editorial and production workflows—from acquisition through editing, design, approval, and production readiness. I coordinate editors, proofreaders, designers, authors, and external contributors across 15+ concurrent deliverables, while maintaining documentation systems and quality control standards.

I focus on building systems that prevent dropped handoffs, reduce rework, and maintain execution standards under pressure. Using structured handover protocols, standardized documentation templates, and stakeholder coordination frameworks, I strengthened project tracking, catalogue management, and workflow coordination across 200+ active titles.

I also bring specialist book production services for self-publishers and independent authors, including proofreading & copy editing, Amazon KDP book formatting (print + ebook), and Adobe InDesign typesetting for print-ready files. I’m drawn to environments where process discipline and multi-step workflow management directly improve performance.
