About Conor

Commercial growth and partnerships consultant with 7 years’ experience across founder-led businesses, corporate services, fintech, FX, residency and relocation in the UAE. I help businesses grow through partnership development, go-to-market strategy, business development, sales execution, and commercial planning.

I have built and scaled revenue channels in fast-moving environments, including co-founding and growing ResiTech to AED 1.5m in trailing 12-month revenue, signing and managing key partnerships, building partner-led lead generation, and owning commercial forecasting and execution. I have also worked closely with freelancers, business setup providers, EOR models, FX/payment partners, and private clients entering or operating in the UAE.

My freelance services are best suited to companies that need hands-on commercial support rather than just advice. This can include partnership sourcing and outreach, sales and GTM strategy, market entry support for the UAE, pipeline building, commercial packaging, client acquisition, and founder support across growth projects. I combine a practical, revenue-focused mindset with strong local market understanding and a hands-on approach to getting things moving.
