Sales Operations Manager

Ketch is redefining responsible data use for the AI era. Thousands of brands rely on our software to responsibly collect, control, and activate compliant, clean data across their enterprise ecosystem. The Ketch Data Permissioning Platform simplifies privacy and consent operations, increases revenue from advertising, data, and AI initiatives, and builds trust with customers and partners. Unlike legacy tools that stop at cookie banners, Ketch governs how data is actually used across a company’s entire stack, with no-code setup that gets customers live in weeks, not quarters. As privacy regulations expand across the globe and AI transforms how companies use data, the demand for what Ketch has built has never been greater. Data privacy sits at the intersection of law, technology, and consumer trust, making it one of the most exciting and fastest-moving fields in software today. Why Join Us? At Ketch, we’re serious about our values of passion, growth, grit, collaboration, and integrity. We’re a 65-person, Series B company backed by top-tier investors, and we’re looking for people who want to do the best work of their careers while shaping how the world handles data responsibly. We’re a rapidly growing, fast-paced, mission-based organization filled with a passionate, close-knit team all operating at the top of their game. Benefits and Perks Competitive medical, dental, and vision coverage, with 100% of premiums paid for US-based full-time employees Unlimited PTO, with employees encouraged to take at least 15 days a year 10 paid company holidays Paid parental leave Remote-friendly with flexible scheduling built around core collaboration hours Commuter benefits for office-based employees About The Role You’ll work hand-in-hand with GTM leadership and the sales team and will partner regularly with Finance, Legal, and Marketing to help optimize the deal cycle. You’ll own Sales Operations end-to-end: the deal desk, pricing strategy and approvals, pipeline and forecast infrastructure, and the reporting and analysis that helps Sales leadership run the business. You will report directly to the VP of Revenue Operations/SMB Sales, and you two will partner closely on the broader revenue operations agenda. At Ketch, operations sits at the intersection of systems, process, and data: you’ll design systems that minimize manual processes wherever reasonable – building for scale rather than an automation that gets torn out in six months. Those systems capture the data needed to analyze GTM processes, and those analyses drive the next round of process and systems improvements. AI is changing what a lean operations team can accomplish. Rather than building out separate ops leads, system admins, and pods of analysts, we are looking for one exceptional operator who works with AI to cover that ground: streamlining systems improvements and building AI-powered tools that put data and analysis directly in the hands of Sales leaders. This is a remote role within the United States. Responsibilities Deal Desk & Pricing: Own the deal desk. Structure, review, and shepherd non-standard deals from quote through approval, and be the person Sales calls when a deal does not fit the standard shape. Keep the approval path fast and predictable, and make the standard shape the easy one to sell. Own pricing strategy and operations: packaging, price books, discount guardrails, approval thresholds, and the quote-to-close mechanics that enforce them. Analyze realized discounting, win rates by price point, and deal shape to recommend pricing changes, and build the case for them with data. Partner with Finance and Legal on contract terms, order forms, and revenue recognition inputs so the deal desk speeds deals up rather than slowing them down. Pipeline, Forecast & Reporting: Own pipeline hygiene, stage definitions, and the forecast cadence. Give Sales leadership a forecast they trust and can defend, and the reporting to see where it is drifting before quarter end. Build the reporting and self-serve dashboards Sales leaders, managers, and reps use daily: pipeline coverage, conversion by stage and segment, velocity, quota attainment, activity-to-outcome linkage, and territory performance. Run the analyses that change how Sales operates, not just report the numbers. Segment profitability, ROI on sales investments, ramp and productivity by cohort, win/loss patterns. Construct the business case, and tell the story. Systems: Design durable systems, not quick fixes. Do the math: quantify and prioritize business value before investing in automation. Ensure every system captures the data needed to analyze the process it runs. Make responsible, effective use of company assets. Own the Sales side of the CRM and the surrounding stack (CPQ or quoting, forecasting, sales engagement, and conversation intelligence), including the workflow, data model, and integration work that keeps it clean. Work with AI tools to accelerate systems design, administration, and integration work that historically required dedicated admins. Build AI-driven analytical tools and self-serve reporting that let Sales leaders answer their own questions. Continuously evaluate where AI can replace manual processes, and where it shouldn't. Planning: Support territory and quota planning, capacity modeling, comp plan mechanics, and headcount analysis alongside Sales and Finance leadership.
