About me

Hi, I'm Virender Pratap Singh (aka VP), a dynamic and data-driven Operations Leader with over 9 years of experience spearheading cross-functional teams. As a seasoned professional, I specialise in Operations Transformation, Customer Onboarding, Implementation, Customer Experience, and Process Improvement. My expertise extends across various industries, including Hospitality & PropTech (SaaS), Pre-Owned Car Marketplace (Retail), Premium Furniture (Retail), and Solar (SaaS). Motivated by a passion for innovation and learning, I pursued an MBA from the University of Edinburgh Business School, graduating with distinction. When I'm not orchestrating operational excellence, you'll find me on the cricket pitch, passionately engaged as an active member of Twickenham Cricket Club. My fluency in English, Punjabi, and Hindi adds a unique cultural dimension to my work. If you are interested in collaborating with me, lets connect via LinkedIn or drop me an email at hi@virenderpratapsingh.com!
