Kieran, founder of Compliance Blueprints

Hi, I’m Kieran.

Behind the scenes.
Across the whole business.

I know how much work sits behind a smooth customer experience. My background brings together the operation of demanding venues, the systems that support them, and the creative work that helps a business present itself clearly.

Today, website development is a major part of my work, alongside bespoke web apps, business automation, custom Excel systems, branding and photography. I also provide practical compliance support, drawing on my operational experience. You work directly with me, from understanding the problem to handing over the finished work.

A practical foundation

Built from experience
on the ground.

I’ve worked in operations since 2018, including hands-on work helping operate multiple busy entertainment venues across Aberdeen’s Music Hall, His Majesty’s Theatre and The Lemon Tree. That experience has grown to include compliance, facilities and the systems that support day-to-day work.

My experience reaches beyond what the audience sees. Working operationally and backstage gave me an understanding of the coordination, preparation and attention to detail behind a venue that runs well. It also taught me to think about how one part of an operation affects the next.

I’ve worked with established systems as part of that day-to-day delivery, as well as creating systems and procedures myself. I understand the difference between something that looks organised on paper and something people can rely on when work gets busy.

From November 2025 to July 2026, I worked as Facilities and Compliance Officer in a shared community building. I developed health-and-safety management systems, PVG management processes and working procedures supporting tenants, instructors, children’s activities and events.

That is the perspective I bring to your business. Before choosing a tool or designing a page, I want to understand who uses it, what they need to do and where the current process makes their work harder.

Technology meets visual thinking

A broader set of skills.
A single point of contact.

Computing & systems

My computing background includes ICT study at Levels 2 and 3, Cisco IT Essentials and an HNC in Computing, followed by further HND study. That foundation helps me understand both the technology and the process it needs to support.

Today, I build Excel and Google Sheets systems, Apps Script tools, websites and practical app dashboards. These bring bookings, payments, records and reporting into clearer workflows, with less repetitive administration.

I start with how your business works and shape the tool around the people using it. The aim is straightforward: easier everyday tasks, useful information at a glance and a system you feel confident using.

Safety & operations

I’ve worked in operations since 2018, with hands-on experience across busy entertainment venues and a shared community setting. I completed IOSH Managing Safely in 2026, adding formal training to my practical understanding of responsibilities, records and day-to-day coordination.

That experience informs the maintenance trackers, safety registers, document-control tools and management dashboards I create. I’ve also developed working procedures and management systems to support the people delivering activities, managing facilities and keeping operations organised.

I focus on making responsibilities visible and information easy to find. For your business, that means clearer ownership, better oversight and practical tools that help people keep on top of the work.

Photography & design

I’ve always loved photography as an art form. I love how light brings out the natural beauty in things, and how satisfying a well-composed photograph can be. Most of all, I love being able to capture a moment and give someone something they can keep and return to. That’s what draws me to photography, and it’s the same care I bring to the work I create for others.

Alongside HNC and HND qualifications in photography and digital advertising, I bring freelance experience across food, hospitality, local businesses and live events. My work includes commercial photography, logo design, social-media branding and Retro Dance’s wider visual identity.

I bring that same care to your project: imagery that shows what makes your business distinctive. I work on location across Dumfries & Galloway and surrounding areas, with wider UK projects and travel by arrangement. Explore photography and content.

Why Compliance Blueprints?

I opened the Compliance Blueprints Etsy shop on 7 March 2026, starting with compliance tools. The common thread soon became clear: the same thinking can help with bookings, registers, payments, websites and everyday business administration.

The offer has grown, but the purpose is consistent: help businesses look professional and work more smoothly. A brand, a website and an internal system serve different purposes, but they should all make sense for the same business.

You don’t need to arrive with a finished brief or know which software to ask for. Tell me what you want to improve. I’ll help turn it into a clear scope, explain what I can deliver and keep the work grounded in what you actually need.
