  • Document and improve sales processes, including lead routing, handoffs, opportunity stages, and follow-up workflows.
  • Coordinate cross-functional Sales Operations initiatives by tracking milestones, owners, risks, and next steps.
  • Create practical dashboards, analysis, playbooks, and enablement materials for sales and leadership stakeholders.
  • Identify repetitive work and help evaluate automation or AI-enabled ways to improve speed, consistency, and quality.

  • Strong analytical, organizational, and problem-solving skills, with an ability to work carefully with data and details.
  • Curiosity about how sales organizations operate and a willingness to ask questions, investigate problems, and learn new tools.
  • Clear written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to turn analysis into a concise recommendation.
