Strategic Planning & GTM Support
- Partner cross-functionally to support go-to-market strategies, including headcount modeling, territory carve, and quota planning.
- Provide analytical support for pricing decisions, resource allocation, sales capacity planning, and market segmentation.
- Improve forecast accuracy, pipeline coverage, and conversion metrics through continuous performance monitoring.
Compensation Planning & Management
- Design, implement, and manage sales compensation plans aligned with company GTM strategy and revenue goals.
- Partner with leadership on quota setting, territory design, and on-target earnings (OTE) modeling.
- Administer compensation plans in Salesforce/Mosaic (and future comp systems), ensuring accuracy and timeliness of payouts.
- Analyze comp effectiveness and recommend changes to improve rep performance, retention, and ROI.
Operational Excellence & Reporting
- Develop and maintain KPIs, dashboards, and reporting cadences to keep teams aligned and proactive.
- Own ad hoc data analyses and special projects that drive clarity around revenue performance and business health.
Identify process bottlenecks and lead cross-functional initiatives to improve operational scalability and data consistency.
What You'll Bring
- 7+ years of experience in Revenue Operations, Sales Strategy, or FP&A, ideally in high-growth Cloud environments.
- Proven expertise in consumption-based billing models (metered services, usage-driven pricing).
- Deep experience with Salesforce, Mosaic, Metronome, Google Sheets, Excel, and business intelligence platforms similar.
- Strong knowledge of the quote-to-cash cycle and integration between CRM and billing tools.
- Exceptional analytical skills and comfort operating in fast-paced, data-heavy environments.
- High-level presentation skills using PowerPoint or G-Slides—able to translate complex analyses into C-suite level insights.
