Role Summary

The Revenue Operations Manager will be responsible for building the systems, processes, and reporting infrastructure that support our go-to-market teams. This role will maintain accurate pipeline visibility, deliver reliable revenue forecasts, and ensure leadership has the intelligence needed to make informed decisions. Acting as a key operational bridge across the Partner channel and Growth function, the Revenue Operations Manager will drive operational efficiency, improve data quality, and strengthen forecasting capabilities as the company continues to scale.

This is an exciting opportunity for an inquisitive and analytically minded individual to make a significant impact on Revenue Operations for a growing global company.

The Revenue Operations Manager is expected to

Serve as the business owner of Salesforce by configuring and creating fields, stages, workflows, and reports to match how the business actually operates

Own the revenue tech stack, including CRM, marketing automation, and sales engagement tools

Lead the evaluation, implementation, and integration of tools that improve team productivity and data quality

Ensure systems are configured to support reporting needs and operational workflows

Run the recurring forecasting process, including a weekly pipeline review with commercial leadership, a bi-weekly forecast submission to Finance, and a monthly close-out summary that compares forecast to actuals and identifies sources of variance

Establish clear deal inspection criteria so forecast calls are grounded in data to drive meaningful improvements in forecast accuracy as a tracked, reported metric

Build and maintain bottom-up and top-down forecasting models that translate accurate CRM pipeline data into reliable near-term and long-term revenue projections for Finance and the CGO; proactively identify, flag, and correct forecast errors in real time

Partner with Finance and commercial leadership on GTM planning and revenue performance analysis

Develop the reporting infrastructure end-to-end, ensuring accurate, real-time data across all deal stages to provide leadership with a clear, trusted view of pipeline health, stage progression, and conversion trends

Lead the development of sales enablement materials, process documentation, and training to support global GTM initiatives

Implement scalable sales processes across the customer lifecycle, from lead generation and pipeline management through to renewal and expansion

Continuously evaluate and improve existing workflows to reduce friction and improve conversion rates at each stage of the funnel; support territory planning, capacity modeling, quota setting, and compensation plan design

Own data management practices including field standardization, record hygiene, deduplication, and data governance policies

Drive CRM adoption and behavior change across the commercial team — enforce data entry standards not just through system rules but through manager accountability, rep enablement, and demonstrating the value of clean data in deal reviews

The ideal candidate will have

A Bachelors degree

5 - 7 years of progressive experience in Revenue Operations, Sales Operations, or a related commercial operations function

Deep, hands-on execution experience is essential — this role requires someone who has personally built the processes, owned the systems, and produced the reporting end-to-end, not just directed others to do so.

Demonstrated track record of owning RevOps processes, systems, and reporting in a high-growth environment

An exceptional level of expertise in Salesforce administration and reporting, with possession of professional certifications being highly desirable

Proficiency in BI tools (e.g., Tableau, Looker) and advanced Excel or Google Sheets skills

A strong analytical background with a particular emphasis on revenue forecasting and pipeline analysis

The ability to build and maintain bottom-up and top-down forecasting models, run pipeline analysis with accuracy and rigor, and produce executive-level reporting that connects current pipeline data to projected revenue outcomes

The ability to quantify and track forecast accuracy improvement over time (e.g., reducing variance from actuals)

A solid understanding of industry-relevant revenue metrics, including APV, NRR, churn, pipeline conversion rate, utilization, LTV, and CAC

Proven ability to work across functions and influence stakeholders at all levels without direct authority

Experience leading complex, cross-functional projects and driving organizational change

The ability to manage multiple priorities simultaneously and deliver results in a fast-paced, evolving environment

Experience with marketing automation or sales enablement tools is a plus

Experience with HubSpot administration is a plus
