Alta Expands Advisory Team with Focus on Vendor Finance, As-a-Service Capabilities

The Alta Group is deepening its bench of strategic advisors with expertise in vendor finance, consumption-based models and operational transformation. Ellen Comeaux, who most recently served as senior vice president and commercial division leader with Everbank, and John Sullivan, a former global leader with Cisco Systems Capital, have joined The Alta Group as directors within the strategy and competitive alignment practice.

Comeaux has more than 30 years of experience in commercial finance, banking and strategic development. She ran two commercial business lines at EverBank—vendor equipment finance and commercial real estate. Her expertise includes commercial lending, revenue and profit growth, credit underwriting, strategic planning and execution, business transformation and process improvement.

Sullivan brings experience in consumption-based transformation, go-to-market strategy and product innovation. He comes to Alta after more than 25 years as a global leader at Cisco Systems Capital, and has significant expertise in structured project financing, pricing, contracts, credit underwriting, sales, operations and financial product and offer development. At Cisco, he led the development and launch of Open Pay, the company’s first consumption-based financing model.

“We are thrilled to welcome Ellen and John—leaders whose real-world insights and strategic vision align with our mission to help clients evolve in a rapidly changing finance environment,” Valerie L. Gerard, co-CEO of The Alta Group, said. “Their additions strengthen our ability to support clients pursuing new revenue models, vendor finance structures and operational agility.”

Comeaux’s and Sullivan’s expertise complements the firm’s existing strengths and supports Alta’s focus on helping clients transform in an era of digital innovation, service-based models and increased competitive pressure.
