martingallegopablo@gmail.com LinkedIn Profile +44 7721 421793

Based in Birmingham, UK, I specialize in eliminating operational friction and building unified digital systems. I connect back-office administrative realities with self-hosted cloud automation, empowering teams to operate with speed, clarity, and zero manual toil.

Operational Resilience & Frontline UK Grounding

Since 2018, I have lived and worked across the United Kingdom, operating in demanding, high-velocity environments in hospitality management, last-mile logistics dispatch, and business operations. These operational battlegrounds forged my capacity to stay composed under intense pressure, diagnose critical bottlenecks immediately, manage multi-stakeholder expectations, and lead frontline workflows with complete accountability.

Business Administration & SME Financial Control

My career is grounded in formal vocational training in Business Administration paired with continuous operational execution. I handle the complete financial lifecycle: automated invoicing pipelines, payroll administration, supplier contracts, and complex administrative dispute resolution (including statutory DVLA procedures, HMRC tax filings, and arbitration claims). Every digital system I architect is informed by accounting compliance, cash-flow discipline, and practical operational viability.

Systems Architecture & Self-Hosted Automation

Rather than locking businesses into rigid, recurring third-party SaaS subscriptions, I deploy resilient, self-hosted operational infrastructure. I engineer automation pipelines using self-hosted n8n on Oracle Cloud VPS via Docker, architect relational database schemas across PostgreSQL, Supabase, and NocoDB, and design centralized operating workspaces in Notion. The result is seamless bidirectional data flow between customer touchpoints, ledgers, and team members with complete data ownership.

Commercial Strategy & Consultative Advisory

With experience in commercial financial advisory at OVB Allfinanz and direct commercial ventures, I evaluate technology through an investment lens. I diagnose operational deficits, protect unit economics, and align automation tools directly with margin expansion, customer retention, and sustainable business growth.
