About the Team & Opportunity
The BizOps team at Clever sits at the intersection of revenue strategy and execution — partnering with Sales, Customer Success, Marketing, and Finance to build the data infrastructure and operational playbooks that drive growth. We're looking for a
Senior Manager of Revenue Operations to own the end-to-end RevOps function and fill a critical gap on the team: someone who can think clearly about the business and do the work themselves. This isn't a strategy-only seat — you'll be hands-on with the modeling, the systems, and the stakeholders. If you're motivated by turning messy data into trusted decisions and getting cross-functional teams moving in the same direction, this role was built for you.
How You'll Make an Impact
Revenue operations & analytics
- Own bottom-of-funnel operations: pipeline review, renewal forecasting, NRR/GRR tracking, and contraction analysis
- Build data-driven recommendations end-to-end — from the initial model to the leadership presentation
- Drive ARR dashboard automation and reduce reliance on manual data reconciliation
- Own cross-sell pipeline visibility and white space analysis
Process & systems
- Clean up legacy processes while continuing to build — this is the most important challenge for this hire in year one
- Implement and improve account segmentation, territory modeling, and quota/capacity planning
- Partner with Salesforce and BI teams (Sigma) to strengthen reporting infrastructure
- Contribute to lead lifecycle management, marketing-to-sales handoff, and funnel optimization
Cross-functional leadership
- Serve as a thought partner to Sales, CS, and Marketing leaders — elevating the credibility and strategic footprint of the RevOps function
- Lead change management across teams; frame process improvements as optimization, not criticism
- Translate business questions into analytical frameworks — start with "what are we trying to answer?" before building anything
Team & management
- Manage a small team while staying hands-on with key deliverables — this is a player-coach role with real management scope
- Build credibility through early wins before pushing for larger structural changes
What We're Looking For
Required Skills & Experience (Must-Haves)
- 5+ years in Revenue Operations, with strong experience in bottom-of-funnel operations (CS, renewals, NRR/GRR)
- Prior people management experience — has directly managed a team
- Solid across analytics, process, and systems — comfortable moving between all three, not just one
- Strong Salesforce proficiency: able to build, maintain, and improve complex reporting and data workflows
- Track record of building data-driven recommendations independently and presenting them to senior leadership
- Clear, concise communicator — precise with language and credible in the room with executives and cross-functional leaders
- Change management instincts: able to bring stakeholders along without disruption
- Experience operating in a high-accountability, metrics-driven environment (e.g., OKR-driven org)
Preferred Qualifications (Nice-to-Haves)
- Experience with BI tools such as Sigma, Tableau, or equivalent
- Experience with renewal forecasting tools (e.g., Gong)
- Familiarity with EdTech or SaaS go-to-market models
Benefits & Perks
- Competitive salary
- Flexible PTO and Paid Parental Leave
- Comprehensive health, vision, and dental coverage
- Mental healthcare services
- Professional development budget
- Annual company retreat + team events
