Vera Oren is a fractional strategic advisory practice. One operator, no back office, no bench to bill against. That shapes how every engagement runs.
Commercial strategy and revenue operations leader — over 15 years across satellite communications and telecom, now building fractional advisory and founder ventures across the GCC, Central Asia and Africa.
Ten years inside one satellite operator throughout departments and functions across support, operations and customer-facing roles, followed by 5+ years building global strategies. Every strategic call is based on practical hands-on experience of having done the work underneath it.
Owned new business, account management, partnerships, M&A evaluation and JV due diligence across APAC, Middle East, Africa and LATAM. Implemented a tiered channel structure and revamped Group B2B strategy. Expanded operations in Indonesia by establishing local presence and redefining market-specific strategy.
Expanded the company's presence and grew market share across Europe and CIS. Identified new market opportunities and created business strategies. Implemented territory-specific market acquisition plans. Secured local type approvals for products across regulated markets.
Qualified daily orders and ensured fulfilment. Improved sales procedures to speed up the sales cycle. Obtained commercial documents for the import/export of international products. Built weekly sales and inventory reporting to track targets against stock availability.
Hands-on experience troubleshooting and resolving service-provider and end-customer issues related to products and services. Trained newly signed service partners on products, provisioning systems and service maintenance — the ground floor of the satcom stack.
Every engagement produces things a team runs on Monday: licensing filings, tier definitions, price lists, standard operating procedures. Not a deck of recommendations that then has to be resourced by someone else.
There is no account manager between you and the person doing the work. One point of contact for the length of the engagement, whether that's a single project or an embedded retainer.
An external advisor sits outside the org chart and outside the internal politics. The recommendation is the one the numbers support, not the one that protects a department.
