Hi, I'm Aurélien, a historian by training and an entrepreneur by nature, currently building my presence here on Upwork. I hold a Master's degree in History from the University of Ghent, with a minor in Economics, and I started my career doing archival and historical research at CEGESOMA, a research center specialized in WWII history. There, I worked hands-on with primary sources, analyzing, cross-referencing, and classifying original documents, which gave me a strong foundation in rigorous, well-sourced research and clear historical storytelling. Alongside that, I've built a solid business background across law, fintech, and foodtech. I served as a Business Analyst at Liedekerke, one of Belgium's top law firms, working in a trilingual environment (Dutch, French, English) on high-level client matters. I've also worked in business development and sales for early-stage startups, in fintech and foodtech, where clarity, empathy, and adaptability were essential to building trust fast. That combination, deep research skills paired with startup pace and business instinct, is what I bring to every project: I can dig into a topic properly and get it right, but I also know how to move fast, communicate clearly, and deliver.

Hi, I'm Olivier – part data expert, part communicator, fully human. I hold a Master's degree in Communication with a focus on Web Strategy from UCLouvain FUCaM Mons, where I graduated with distinction. Today, I work both as a Data Executive and a Customer Success Manager, blending technical precision with a deep care for people and meaningful outcomes. Over the past four years, I’ve built hands-on experience in customer service, campaign management, and digital strategy, first in a major retail group, then through communication roles in fast-paced environments. I’ve also completed a strategic internship at Lecitech, where I created content, managed social media, and planned digital campaigns with impact. My approach is always thoughtful and detail-driven. Whether it’s analyzing campaign data, writing engaging copy, or supporting a client relationship, I care about clarity, coherence, and delivering real value. On the side, I regularly proofread university papers and contribute to writing projects — because good communication should always sound like a real person. I believe in the power of words, data, and empathy to move things forward. If you're looking for someone who can think strategically and communicate clearly, let’s talk.

*Updated Availability July 2026: I currently have 2 more slots to work with clients* If you're a business owner who knows social media could be growing your business, but you don't have the time, don't know what to post, or you've tried it and just haven't seen the results. This is for you. Here's what's actually going on. Most businesses post without knowing what their audience wants to watch. And when the topic is boring, people scroll away. No amount of editing, transitions, or good graphics will save it. What actually gets you results is knowing exactly what topics stop people mid-scroll, and creating content the algorithm wants to push out. When those two things line up, you get organic reach, leads, and growth. That's what I do for my clients. I work as a social media partner. Not a freelancer you have to manage, not an agency that doesn't know your business. A partner who comes in, learns what makes you different, and builds your entire social media department with you. Research, strategy, content, editing, publishing... I handle everything A to Z. You show up for a few hours a month, I handle everything else, so you never have to wonder what to post again. The result? You get your time back, your content actually converts, and you become the go-to in your industry. All without social media taking over your life. If that sounds like what you need, send me a message here on Upwork. I'd love to learn more about you and your business.
