Strategic Advisory Board Member, Fiber

The Company is in search of Strategic Advisory Board Members with a focus on fiber, particularly those with a background in telecommunications, broadband, and digital infrastructure. The successful candidates will be tasked with providing the organization with industry expertise, commercial insight, and strategic relationships to aid in the expansion and commercialization of an open-access fiber network platform. This role is distinct from a traditional corporate board position, as it is more commercially oriented, with a primary focus on helping the leadership identify opportunities, develop strategic relationships, and enhance the utilization of the company's fiber infrastructure. Key responsibilities for the Advisory Board Members include advising on market expansion, commercialization, and growth strategy, offering insight into open-access fiber economics, and facilitating introductions to senior executives in the relevant sectors. The ideal profile for this position includes individuals with 15-20+ years' experience in the field, extensive relationships with major industry players, and a strong understanding of FTTH, open-access infrastructure, and wholesale connectivity. The role also requires a proven track record in developing strategic partnerships and growing telecommunications businesses, as well as the ability to provide strategic introductions and actionable commercial guidance. Experience in municipal broadband or public-private partnerships is considered a plus.
