The calendar is handled.
The follow-up already went out.

I run the operational layer of a business: executive calendars, recurring processes, client communication and the follow-through that keeps commitments from slipping. Four-plus years with remote, international teams, with a specialization in mental health practices.

What you can expect

A managed calendar, a triaged inbox, prepared meetings, booked travel and correspondence that goes out on time, with open items tracked until they close.

Case study C / Client Experience & Operations

Onboarding, outreach and the follow-up in between.

Membership-based service business · details kept confidential

Client-facing operations for a membership business: onboarding new members, coordinating newsletters and outreach, and maintaining retention workflows in the CRM.

Illustrative demonstration · fictional data

A client onboarding tracker, the way I'd set one up.

Clear expectations.
Closed loops.

01

Start with priorities.

Before taking anything on, I confirm what matters most, what good looks like and how you prefer to be updated.

02

Own what's agreed.

Once a responsibility is mine, I track it to completion and close the loop without needing reminders.

03

Write it down.

Recurring work becomes a documented process. If a workflow keeps causing friction, I flag it with a suggested fix.

04

Report early.

Progress, deadlines and blockers are shared in plain language, before they become surprises.

MAIRE ABANES

Organized by habit.
Steady by nature.

I'm Maire. For more than four years I've worked remotely with executives, practice owners and client-facing teams, taking responsibility for the coordination work that keeps a business running: schedules, inboxes, processes, records and the people in between.

Much of that time has been spent in mental health practices, where administrative work carries real weight and discretion is expected. It taught me to communicate carefully, document what I do, and raise issues early.

A background in financial management, plus independent work in writing and design, means I'm comfortable with numbers, words and the details of how things look.
