Freelance Consultant – Process Automation & Digital Product

läuft von allein

Position summary
Freelance Consultant – Process Automation & Digital Product at läuft von allein
Business areas
Information Technology
Operations
Product Development

I help companies and digital teams regain time in their day-to-day work – by automating recurring processes and making targeted improvements to digital products. Depending on their needs, either with implementation or at management level (interim).

Typical results:

  • Manual routine processes run automatically – inquiries, data maintenance, follow-ups
  • Faster response times and fewer things left undone in day-to-day operations
  • Clear priorities in product and digitalisation projects, pragmatic rather than over-engineered

How: modern No/Low-Code automation (including n8n, Make.com), combined with experience as a Managing Director and Digital Product Manager. The tool is never the starting point – the question is always where a solution creates real value.

Summary

Many companies lose time in their day-to-day work on processes that could actually run on their own: transferring data manually, remembering follow-ups, repeating routine steps. That is exactly where I come in. I support companies and digital teams as a freelancer – depending on their needs, either with implementation or at management level. My focus: making processes leaner and further developing digital products. Pragmatic, quickly effective and without expensive special solutions. With experience at Bain & Company, as Managing Director at CHECK24 and Director Digital Product at Enpal, I bring both strategic depth and hands-on implementation experience. I know where to set priorities, and I am just as happy to get stuck in myself. Where automation makes sense, I work with modern No/Low-Code tools (including n8n, Make.com). But the tool is never the starting point – the question is always: Where does a solution create real value?
