We’re looking for a detail-oriented freelancer to help us categorise a dataset of ~15,000 rows. Each row represents a company, and your task will be to assign the correct industry type from a predefined list of categories.
For most rows, the industry will be obvious based on the company name or included information. However, some rows may require a little research — for example, visiting the company’s website (URL provided in the sheet) to better understand what they do.
Key Details:
Total rows: ~15,000
Data format: Excel/Google Sheets
Each row contains company name + URL + supporting info
You’ll categorise each row with the most relevant industry type (we’ll provide a list)
We expect a high degree of accuracy and consistency
Ideal Candidate:
✅ Has experience with data entry or classification
✅ Comfortable doing quick online research when needed
✅ Has strong attention to detail
✅ Can commit to quality over speed
✅ Familiar with working in spreadsheets (Excel or Google Sheets)
Bonus if you have:
Previous experience working with CRM or marketing data
Knowledge of common UK industries or business sectors
