Global Finance Data Analyst

Hi! I’m Ifeoma, an Automation Specialist and Data & Operations professional with 5+ years of experience working at the intersection of data, technology, finance, and business operations across the United Kingdom and Nigeria.

My career has evolved from finance and economic analysis into data analytics, process optimization, workflow automation, and AI-enabled solutions. I’m passionate about using technology to simplify complex processes, eliminate repetitive manual work, and turn data into scalable solutions that help teams make better decisions and operate more efficiently.

I hold an MSc in International Finance from London South Bank University and a BSc in Economics. This foundation has given me a strong analytical grounding in financial modelling, statistical analysis, econometrics, and evidence-based decision-making. I have since expanded this expertise into Python-based ETL pipelines, business intelligence, workflow automation, and AI tools, including n8n and LLM-based agents.

Across my career, I have worked with organisations spanning telecommunications, financial services, consulting, research, and technology-enabled operations. I have built automated data pipelines, interactive BI dashboards, workflow and communication systems, and process-improvement solutions that have reduced reporting delays, manual effort, and operational bottlenecks. Most recently, my work has increasingly focused on automation and AI — designing and refining workflows that make operational processes more efficient, consistent, and scalable.

My experience in finance remains an important part of what I bring to technology and automation. It allows me to understand not only how systems work, but also the commercial, financial, and operational outcomes they are designed to improve.

I’m particularly interested in the intersection of AI, automation, data, and business operations, and in building practical technology solutions that create measurable impact.

My goal is to continue developing solutions that make organisations more efficient, data-driven, and adaptable — while using technology to address complex challenges and create opportunities for sustainable growth.

Let’s connect!
