Elena Berti
@elenaberti
Partnerships and project professional building cross-market relationships to move complex deals forward.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Partnerships and Project professional with 10+ years across the UAE, Europe, and Russia. I build and maintain relationships that drive partnerships, move projects forward, and align stakeholders across markets and cultures—especially in fast-paced international environments.
My strength is connecting people and keeping things moving. I naturally spot communication gaps, process inefficiencies, and bottlenecks, then coordinate complex, multi-party processes with clear stakeholder communication and practical solutions (including investor relations, executive coordination, and cross-functional delivery). I’ve supported high-value transactions, led communications with 80+ international property investors, and coordinated multi-business projects while keeping trust and alignment strong throughout.
