[Hiring] Head of Global Revenue Operations @Harbor

Role Description

Harbor is seeking a Head of Global Revenue Operations to architect and lead the commercial operating model underpinning a global, PE-backed, consultative-services business. Reporting to the Chief Revenue Officer and partnering closely with the CEO, CFO, and Board, this executive will own end-to-end revenue lifecycle performance, from GTM strategy and planning through pipeline, productivity, and renewal, and will set the standard for rigor, accountability, and scalability in how Harbor sells, serves, and grows.

This is an enterprise leadership role, not a sales support function. The successful candidate will serve as the CRO’s strategic advisor and chief of staff for commercial performance, the principal architect of Harbor’s go-to-market operating system, and the executive accountable for translating commercial strategy into measurable revenue outcomes. Scope spans:

• Revenue Strategy & Planning
• Deal Desk and Commercial Operations
• GTM Systems & Data
• Revenue Analytics & Insights
• Sales Enablement
• Field Productivity

The role carries a clear transformation mandate:

• Unify a historically distributed set of commercial-support activities into a modern RevOps function.
• Modernize the underlying technology and data stack.
• Install the operating cadence required to scale a consultative, multi-segment revenue engine.

Success will depend on close partnership with Sales, Delivery, Marketing, Finance, IT, HR, and the broader leadership team.

Qualifications

• At least 15 years of progressive leadership in Revenue Operations, Commercial Operations, or GTM strategy, including time at the head-of-function level in a global business.
• Track record of building or transforming an enterprise RevOps function (charter, team, operating model, technology, and data) in a complex, multi-segment organization.
• Deep experience with the full revenue lifecycle: GTM planning, forecasting, pipeline, deal execution, productivity, renewal, and analytics.
• Modern technology fluency: Salesforce and the broader GTM stack (CPQ, sales engagement, conversation intelligence, enablement platforms, BI).
• Strong commercial and financial acumen; comfortable owning forecast credibility with a CFO and presenting to a Board.
• Experience in consultative, services-led, or solutions-selling businesses preferred; private equity portfolio experience a plus.
• Executive presence and the influence skills to lead through peers across Sales, Marketing, Delivery, Finance, HR, Legal, and Technology.
• Demonstrated ability to manage multiple concurrent deliverables and stakeholders with sound planning and resource-management discipline.
• Bachelor's degree required; MBA or other advanced degree welcomed.

Requirements

• Commercial performance: measurable improvement in forecast accuracy, pipeline coverage and velocity, win rates, and seller productivity (revenue per rep, ramp time, quota attainment distribution).
• Operating model maturity: a unified global RevOps function with clear charter, service levels, and operating cadence; demonstrable shift from reactive reporting to forward-looking commercial insight.
• Revenue lifecycle integration: a coherent end-to-end model spanning demand, pipeline, deal execution, delivery handoff, and renewal/expansion, with shared definitions, data, and accountability across Sales, Marketing, and Delivery.
• Technology and data foundation: a modernized GTM tech stack, single-source-of-truth reporting, and demonstrable improvement in data quality, governance, and time-to-insight.
• Manager effectiveness: a measurable lift in front-line manager coaching rigor, deal inspection quality, and team-level performance management, supported by enablement and analytics.
• Executive and Board confidence: the CRO, CEO, CFO, and Board can rely on RevOps as the authoritative source for commercial performance, planning assumptions, and investment decisions.
