Between 1972 and 1974 she was deputy director of the party's central committee's Opinion Research Institute, succeeding the institute's founder-director, Karl Maron, in 1974. She resigned from that position in 1979, by when she was 73. Between 1979 and 1989 she acted as a consultant to the Central Committee's Department for International Relations.

In April 1946 Berg returned to Germany, settling in the Soviet occupation zone which by now was in the process of becoming the German Democratic Republic. Berg became a member of the new country's ruling SED (party) and took a position as a teacher at the prestigious Karl Marx Academy in Liebenwalde. Between 1946 and 1951 she undertook various functions in the party's regional leadership in Saxony-Anhalt, working closely with Bernard Koenen. In 1951 she briefly became acting director of the Karl Marx Academy, before accepting a professorial directorship at the Party Central Committee's Social Sciences Institute, remaining in this post till 1958.

In September 1941 she was put in charge of the German section of the German section of the Antifa School for prisoners of war at Taliza, while still continuing to teach at the party academy in Moscow.

1935

Veser continued with her (now illegal) work for the party till 1935. In 1933 she became the Agitation and Propaganda secretary in the party's Halle leadership team and later in the same year took over from Max Opitz the party leadership for the Württemberg region. 1934/35 found her operating under the cover name "Lotte" as a party instructor in the Saarland. In 1935 she escaped to France from where she emigrated to the Soviet Union where she was given the "party name", "Helene Berg", a name to which she switched and which she officially retained after the war ended.

Between 1935 and 1937, using the cover name "Lene Neckar", Helene Berg was the deputy head of the German sector at the ILS, at the same time teaching in Moscow the history of (1) the Russian Communist Party and of (2) the German Workers' Movement.
