Role Overview

The Head of Sales Operations will build and lead a modern, scalable sales operations function for a fast-growing enterprise sales organization. This role owns forecasting, reporting, performance management, and territory design, while driving alignment and operational rigor across the global sales team.

This is a foundational hire: while elements of the sales tech stack, CRM administration, and enablement exist today, there is no dedicated sales operations leader. You will establish structure, optimize processes, and ensure cohesion across regions, channels, and leadership.

The role sits at the intersection of strategy and execution—hands-on enough to drive change day-to-day, but senior and strategic enough to partner closely with executive leadership.

Key Areas of Responsibility

1. Process Optimization

Design, document, and continuously improve end-to-end sales processes to drive efficiency, scalability, and consistent execution across regions.
Establish and enforce CRM governance, usage standards, and data quality.
Participate in and support sales pipeline and forecast review meetings.
Lead change management initiatives related to new processes, tools, and operating rhythms.
Standardize deal desk workflows, approval processes, and cross-functional handoffs (Sales, Finance, Legal, Channel).

2. Data & Analytics

Build and maintain scalable sales forecasting and reporting frameworks.
Deliver actionable, real-time insights into pipeline health, rep productivity, deal velocity, and performance versus targets.
Partner with Sales Leadership and Finance to align metrics, dashboards, and forecasting methodologies.
Ensure leadership has clear visibility into business performance and risk.

3. Market Intelligence

Conduct ongoing market and competitive analysis to support strategic planning and territory design.
Identify high-potential verticals and segments to guide prospecting and campaign focus.
Develop reporting that highlights cross-sell and upsell opportunities within the customer base and active pipeline.
Support strategic account targeting and coverage models.

Additional Responsibilities

Lead the annual sales planning cycle, including territory design, quota setting, and compensation planning (in partnership with Sales Leadership and Finance).
Act as a trusted operational partner to the CSO, regional sales leaders, channel leadership, and executive team.
Help evolve the sales operating model as the company continues to scale globally.

Ideal Profile

Proven experience in Sales Operations within a B2B, enterprise, or SaaS environment.
Strong background in forecasting, pipeline management, and sales analytics.
Comfortable operating in ambiguity and building structure from the ground up.
Highly collaborative, with experience partnering across Sales, Finance, Channel, and Executive Leadership.

Total compensation (base + bonus) for this role will be approximately 200-250k.
