This role has no direct reports, but you'll provide project leadership, mentoring, and coaching for other ICs and cross-functional partners, including Implementation.

• Partner with Sales Operations leadership to translate strategic goals into analytical frameworks and project charters, leading deep-dive analyses on coverage, pipeline health, and motion performance.
• Own end-to-end delivery of large, cross-functional initiatives - GTM resets, new role/motion launches, coverage redesign, incentive changes - from problem definition through implementation and measurement.
• Structure projects into workstreams and provide direction to other ICs and cross-functional partners contributing to them.
• Co-design and maintain sales process governance (stage definitions, rules of engagement, approval paths), and lead efforts to standardize core processes across teams.
• Own process design for HubSpot and Salesforce, partnering with CRM admin teams on data cleanliness and feature rollout.
• Identify opportunities to apply AI and automation to sales processes, partnering with CRM/Systems to pilot and roll out responsibly.
• Define KPI frameworks for strategic initiatives and assist with the builds of dashboards/reports (Sigma, Salesforce, HubSpot) that leadership actually uses to track adoption and performance.
• Serve as a strategic partner to leaders across Sales, Marketing, Product, Finance, and Operations, leading working sessions and decision forums.
• Help set standards for documentation and strategic analysis, and bring outside best practices into the organization.

Qualifications

• 5-8+ years in sales operations, sales strategy, revenue operations, consulting, analytics, or related roles, with a track record of leading complex, cross-functional projects that improved sales performance or GTM alignment.
• Experience partnering directly with senior leaders (Sales Directors, VPs, Finance) on strategic decisions.
• Strong analytical capabilities with proven expertise in building and interpreting CRM reports, as well as leveraging complex datasets to extract key insights.
• Ability to design and interpret models related to territories, capacity, funnel performance, or incentives.
• Familiarity with AI-powered sales/GTM tools and curiosity for where automation can improve efficiency and data quality.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to turn complex analysis into clear narratives for executives and ICs alike.
• Strong facilitation and cross-functional influence skills — comfortable driving alignment across groups with competing interests.
• Highly organized, systems-oriented thinker, comfortable with ambiguity and biased toward scalable solutions over one-off fixes.
• Ability to travel up to 5 days per quarter for Together Weeks, team gatherings and other events, when applicable.
