THREE WAYS
TO ENGAGE

Whether you need embedded executive leadership, high-level strategic counsel, or AI-powered implementation — Operait delivers senior capability without the full-time overhead.

01
FRACTIONAL C-SUITE

Embedded executive leadership — CSO, CBO, COO — on a part-time retainer basis. You get a senior leader in your leadership team, attending your syncs, owning real outcomes. Not an advisor. Not a consultant. A leader.

  • Chief Strategy Officer
  • Chief Business Officer
  • Chief Operating Officer
  • Interim Executive Leadership
  • Board Advisory
02
STRATEGIC ADVISORY

Project-based strategic counsel for companies at critical inflection points — fundraising, M&A, market entry, partnerships, turnarounds. Decades of deal experience, deployed precisely where you need it.

  • Capital raise strategy
  • M&A and deal execution
  • Partnership & BD structuring
  • Go-to-market strategy
  • Operational restructuring
03
AI-POWERED CONSULTING

Healthcare and regulated market strategy, delivered with AI tools that compress timelines by 60% and cost by 75%. The same senior expertise — faster, sharper, more affordable.

  • AI implementation in healthcare ops
  • Business plan & model development
  • Regulatory strategy with AI tools
  • Market analysis & competitive intel
  • Operational efficiency roadmaps

"The fractional model works when the executive brings more than a title — they bring a track record, a network, and the judgment that only comes from having done it, repeatedly, under pressure."

— Jonathan Berlent, Founder
01
Range Across 8 Domains
Trading, generic pharma, branded biotech, medtech, M&A, BD, capital markets, and AI. Most executives have depth in one lane. Operait brings cross-domain judgment that sees around corners.
02
AI-Augmented Delivery
Every engagement leverages AI tooling to accelerate analysis, compress deliverable timelines, and reduce cost. Senior strategy, delivered with next-generation efficiency.
03
Operator, Not Advisor
Operait engagements are defined by accountability to outcomes, not hours billed. We embed, we lead, we execute. The measure of success is whether your business is in a better place.
04
Regulated Market Fluency
Deep familiarity with FDA, CMS, reimbursement, M&A in life sciences. The complexity of your market is not a learning curve — it's the native environment.

Jonathan Berlent is a senior executive with 20+ years operating across healthcare, life sciences, and regulated financial markets — from Wall Street trading desks to pharma C-suites, from generic drug manufacturing to biotech business development, M&A, and capital strategy.

He has led complex transactions, built commercial infrastructures from scratch, navigated bankruptcy auctions, structured international acquisitions, and built the kind of cross-domain experience that most executives spend a career trying to accumulate.

Operait is the platform through which that experience — combined with the latest in AI consulting tools — is now available to companies that need senior leadership without the full-time commitment.
