Fractional COO (ex COO/CFO) | SOPs, KPIs & weekly cadence | Automation oversight | Private-label import ops: RFQ, QC, logistics & inventory planning

Fractional COO (former COO & CFO) helping founder-led teams build an ops system: clear ownership, a simple weekly cadence, SOPs/KPIs, and process automation oversight - so remote teams execute smoothly without micromanagement.

I also build private-label + inventory-led operating systems: RFQ/tender supplier selection, direct Chinese, SE Asia, and Turkish manufacturers workflows, QC gates, logistics coordination, and demand/inventory planning - so scaling stays predictable.
