Overview of the role:
Join us at PolicyMe! We're modernizing insurance, and we'd like your help. Insurance is a $1T industry that has remained largely unchanged for decades and we want to change that. We're a remote-first, Toronto-based startup with big ambitions.
As the Director of Revenue Operations, you will drive operational excellence across the revenue lifecycle, working closely with sales, marketing, customer success, and product teams. You’ll manage a small, high-performing team, and execute strategic initiatives to support growth. Beyond supporting our growth ambitions, a critical part of your role will include exploring and integrating AI tools to enhance our customer-facing teams and operations, as well as implementing privacy and security measures to safeguard our systems and ensure compliance.
Reports To: COO
What you'll be doing:
- Revenue Operations Strategy: Develop and execute an operations strategy aligned with company objectives. This will involve collaborating with the product team to operationalize new insurance products and tenant launches. Additionally, a large part of our strategy next year involves identifying opportunities to integrate AI into customer-facing teams and processes to improve efficiency, personalization, and customer satisfaction. You would lead the evaluation, implementation, and training of AI-driven tools for use in sales, and support functions
- Team Leadership and Collaboration: Effectively lead a small team (3-5 members), fostering high performance and growth. Work cross-functionally with sales, marketing, customer success, engineering, and product teams to align efforts and achieve revenue goals
- Tool and Process Management: Oversee and optimize the use of tools such as HubSpot (CRM), Aircall, Front Inbox, etc. Own vendor relationships with major tooling vendors and stay apprised of product roadmaps, best practices, etc. Proactively identify and resolve bottlenecks in processes to improve efficiency, scalability and performance
- Data Management and Insights: Ensure data integrity and consistency across systems. Build and maintain dashboards in Looker to track and analyze key revenue, performance and operational KPIs. Provide actionable insights to the Director of Sales and VP of Growth to support forecasting and strategic decision-making
- Customer Communications: In our CRM, own email and SMS communication workflows for customer-facing messages. With marketing and product, support the execution of automation strategies to improve customer engagement and retention
- Privacy, Security, and Permissioning: Establish and enforce privacy and security protocols for systems and tools, ensuring compliance with industry standards and regulations. Build and maintain permissioning frameworks to manage access for customer-facing employees and protect sensitive data. Work collaboratively with engineering, and compliance teams to stay ahead of privacy requirements and implement best practices
What we are looking for:
- 7+ years of experience in revenue operations, sales operations, or a related role, preferably in B2C, B2B2C or Fintech
- Proven experience managing small teams and driving cross-functional initiatives
- Expertise with CRM is essential (we use Hubspot, but Salesforce is fine!)
- Familiarity with AI tools and their application in customer-facing operations is a plus
- Knowledge of privacy and security standards and experience implementing compliance protocols
- Analytical mindset with a proven ability to interpret data and deliver insights
- Effective communicator, skilled at aligning diverse teams to achieve common goals
Why join us:
- Generous PTO - 20 vacation days
- Access to stock options and a comprehensive benefits plan
- A remote-first team with company paid, in-person socials and the option to work from our Toronto-based office
