About Alexander

Most fast-growing companies scale at the speed of sound, while their CX/Customer support operations often are dragging behind. I help founders, VC funds and leadership teams bridge the gap between aggressive expansion and sustainable CX/Customer support framework.

With over 20 years of experience in Mobility, Fintech in Telco industries, I’ve built and managed CX ecosystems for 100M+ users across 47 countries with teams up to 1000+ headcount. I specialize in moving organizations from "manual and fragmented" to "automated and scalable."

How I can help:

- CX Maturity & AI Readiness Audit: A 2-week deep dive to identify operational gaps and tech debt before you automate.

- CX Target Operating Model (TOM) Design: Architecting global support structures (In-house, BPO, or Hybrid) that support your further growth.

- Fractional CXO / Advisory: High-impact strategic partnership (4-8 hours/week) to lead BPO transitions, AI integration, and CX governance.

Why work with me?

- Global Perspective: Proven track record in navigating diverse markets across LATAM, EMEA, and SEA.

- Industry Standards: COPC-certified expertise ensuring your operations meet global efficiency benchmarks.

Focus on Value: I prioritize metrics that matter to the Board—NRR, LTV/CAC, and operational cost optimization.
