This role will serve as a key partner to regional sales leaders-supporting the creation of accurate, high-quality quotes, accelerating deal cycles, and enabling a frictionless sales process.
This person should bring a deep understanding of sales operations and revenue workflows, and thrive in a high-performance, fast-paced environment.

- Training
- Provide ongoing training for field sales on Sales processes, best practices, and tool efficiency. Offer ongoing support and troubleshooting to ensure a smooth, efficient quoting process.
- Process Optimization
- Identify gaps or inefficiencies across quoting and deal execution workflows and drive improvements that enhance scalability, strengthen controls, and improve overall Quote-to-Cash cycle time and data integrity.
- 3+ years in Revenue Operations, Sales Operations, or Deal Desk roles, ideally within SaaS, tech, or high-growth companies.
- Sales Process Expertise: Strong understanding of the B2B sales cycle and how to support reps through quoting, approvals, and deal structuring.
- Tools: Proficiency in Salesforce and Excel/Google Sheets. Experience with CPQ tools is a major plus.
