Because together, we have the power to create extraordinary outcomes for our customers, our communities, and ourselves.
We are seeking a highly motivated, strategic, and operationally-minded Revenue Operations Manager to partner directly with our Chief Revenue Officer (CRO). This is a pivotal role that will act as a force multiplier for the CRO, ensuring the effective execution of our go-to-market strategy, driving cross-functional alignment, and managing the strategic priorities of the Revenue organization. This is a high impact role designed for experienced operations who want to deepen their career in revenue strategy and operations. The ideal candidate will be a trusted advisor and thought partner to the CRO, possessing a keen understanding of the SaaS business model, and the ability to navigate complex organizational dynamics with grace and influence.
Your Impact
