Hire the Best Process Improvement Specialists in New York
Kings County, New York
I help teams fix how they work. I'm an operations and workflow consultant with 7+ years identifying what's broken, designing better systems, and implementing solutions that stick. I specialize in process audits, workflow redesign, and automation, finding the inefficiencies that are costing teams time and money and building practical fixes using the tools they already have or lightweight ones that won't require an IT team to maintain. A few things that capture how I work: I automated a loan intake process that multiple developers said couldn't be automated, saving $50K+ annually. I built a contract and resource system that satisfied directly conflicting requirements across three departments and cut compliance timelines by 60%. I designed and launched a workflow audit practice offering end-to-end process improvement services to small businesses. I work across any industry and any function. My thing isn't what I already know about your space. It's how fast I can understand it and identify what's actually blocking progress. If your team is drowning in manual work, working around broken processes, or scaling faster than your systems can keep up, that's exactly where I come in. **Core services: Workflow audits, process redesign, automation implementation, SOP documentation, operations consulting, project and program management. **Tools: Zapier, Make, Asana, Monday, Airtable, Google Workspace, Salesforce, Trello, Microsoft Office, Slack.

(Fixed-Rate Projects Only) I build founder-free operations for service-based companies. Hi, I’m Lora Jackson - your Process Nerd. If you’re scaling fast but still answering every question, reviewing every task, or stepping in to fix daily problems, you don’t have an operations issue. You have a structure issue. I design operating systems - SOPs, workflows, delegation frameworks, and team processes - so service businesses can grow without constant founder involvement. Most of my clients come to me when: - They’re tired of micromanaging - Onboarding takes too long - Everyone has “their own way” of doing things - Leadership is stuck in daily fires - Growth keeps adding complexity I fix that. What working with me actually means - Documented, repeatable processes your team actually uses - Smooth cross-department handoffs - Clear roles and ownership so delegation sticks - An operations hub that centralizes all training and SOPs - A company that runs on structure, not memory This is not virtual assistant work, task management, or random SOP templates. This is building a founder-free operating system. Who I work with Founders and operators of service-based businesses in: 📦 Moving & storage 🛠️ Home remodeling and home organizing 🏡 Property management and real estate services ⚖️ Law firms and professional services 🔗 Franchise, daycare, and operations-heavy local service companies Typical client profile: - $1.5M–$12M annual revenue - 8–40 team members - Growing but hitting operational friction - Ready to systematize, not just patch problems What sets me apart - I don’t give homework - I do the documentation for you - I create systems teams can adopt immediately - I build implementation, not just plans - I’m certified in Trainual and Whale, fluent in Notion, and experienced with Monday.com, ClickUp, SmartMoving, and other operational platforms. Important Note: I no longer take hourly projects. All engagements are fixed-rate with clear deliverables, timelines, and outcomes. If you need a consultant to “write one SOP” or “clean up some tasks,” I’m not a fit. If you want to step out of daily management and build a business that runs smoothly without you, we should talk. About me - Bulgarian immigrant, mom, married to a Michelin-recognized chef - Fueled by espresso, Kendrick Lamar, and the Foo Fighters - Motto: Systems handle the mundane. You handle the meaningful. If you are ready to get your time back, let's talk. I'd love to learn more about your business and what's taking up most of your time.
