Data cleaning and import macros
Repeatable transformation of the exports you get rather than the ones you wish you got. Often Power Query is the better tool here and we will say so, because a macro you cannot edit is worse than a query you can.

Hire an Excel VBA developer in London.
Automating anything inside a UK regulated firm means the routine has to be explainable to a reviewer. We log actions and retain source data, because an unexplainable macro is a future finding.

Automate a regulatory-adjacent reporting process with logging.

Why London specifically
Where this work comes from.
Clients for this are typically in the City, Canary Wharf, Shoreditch and the Thames Valley corridor, across financial services and fintech, insurance and Lloyd's market firms, professional services, property investment, and the UK arms of international groups. FCA-adjacent reporting, group consolidations and models built for a reviewer.
For the wider picture of what we see in this market — the recurring problems, the source systems, how the time difference plays out — the London guide covers it properly rather than repeating it on every service page.

What a excel vba developer does for you.
Two of the things this covers most often for London clients. The vba & automation page sets out the full scope and method.
Reporting automation
The multi-step monthly assembly reduced to one button, with a log of what it did and when. The most commonly requested Excel automation, and usually the one with the clearest payback.
- 01
Build with error handling and a log
Every run records what it did. When somebody asks why last month's numbers moved, the log answers it in seconds.
- 02
Watch the manual process
Usually over a screen share. We time it too — if the task takes ten minutes a month, automating it may not be worth your money, and we would rather say that at this stage.

Questions
Excel VBA developer in London — questions.
Answers for this service in this market, including the ones that might cost us the job.
Ask us something elseIs automation a risk in a regulated reporting process?
Unlogged automation is. A routine that records what it did, retains inputs and has a documented procedure is generally lower risk than a manual process nobody wrote down.
Can you automate Excel without VBA?
Often, and sometimes we should. Power Query handles import and transformation better than a macro and is easier for you to maintain. Office Scripts works where Excel on the web matters. VBA remains the right answer for workbook manipulation, user forms and driving other Office applications. We choose on your environment, not our preference.
Can you help close an internal audit point on a spreadsheet?
Yes — EUC remediation is a substantial part of our London work. We work from the specific finding, address it directly, and produce documentation that evidences what changed. Whether that satisfies your auditor is their call, not ours, but we build with the finding in front of us.
