What we look for:
- 10+ years of experience in Consulting, Sales Operations, Business Operations, Enablement Operations, or Professional Services Operations within high-growth technology companies.
- Proven experience owning regional operating cadence, forecasting frameworks, and large-scale execution models.
- Strong commercial fluency, including understanding of utilization, forecast variance, and revenue discipline.
- Experience implementing automation, analytics, or AI-driven workflows to improve efficiency and predictability.
