Your Role

As a member of Zip's GTM Strategy & Operations team, you'll be a key partner to Sales, Marketing, and the broader executive team - driving strategic planning, operational execution, and analytical rigor across our revenue engine. This team sits at the intersection of go-to-market execution, company strategy, and systems - giving you a unique seat at the table to shape the trajectory of the business.

You'll operate as a true business partner and execution arm for our revenue leaders - owning the core rhythms, models, and metrics that power GTM performance.

What You'll Do

• Own GTM operations for a business unit: Lead day-to-day operations and long-term planning for one or more sales segments, including territory design, comp plans, sales metrics, reporting, and "whatever it takes."

• Act as a strategic thought partner: Be the go-to partner for sales leadership and execs - whether it's solving complex problems, framing key decisions, or bringing structure to ambiguity.

• Drive GTM cadence and accountability: Run the operating rhythm - owning pipeline reviews, forecast calls, QBRs, and leadership syncs. You'll push velocity, track outcomes, and ensure every meeting drives impact.

• Lead cross-functional execution: Work across Sales, Marketing, CS, Product, and Finance to drive strategic initiatives forward - bringing a GTM perspective to company-wide efforts and ensuring alignment across teams.

• Build with data: Use SQL, spreadsheets, and BI tools to structure analysis, validate assumptions, and uncover insights that improve GTM execution and drive growth.

• Own special projects: From compensation design to rep productivity modeling to account segmentation - you'll own critical, high-impact workstreams that move the business forward.

What We're Looking For

• 8+ years of experience in sales strategy, revenue operations, consulting, investing, or a similar high-performance environment.

• Strong analytical and modeling skills - you're fluent in Excel/Sheets and can write SQL or are willing to learn.

• Deep understanding of go-to-market motions and SaaS business models, with battle-tested views on comp, funnel metrics, over-assignment, and enrichment.

• Experience working closely with GTM systems like Salesforce, Outreach, Clari, and Gong.

• Excellent written and verbal communication - you can structure thinking clearly, write concise memos, and present to executives with confidence.

• Attention to detail - you go deep on problems, sweat the edge cases, and set the quality bar high.

• High bias for action - you move fast, think in tradeoffs, and find a way forward when others see blockers.

• Technically inclined - you're not afraid of Salesforce Flows, brittle validation rules, or stitching together data across systems.

• A collaborative mindset - you're opinionated but open to all perspectives, and you know how to drive alignment across stakeholders.

• A proven operator - you've managed large, ambiguous projects that required both strategic thinking and tactical execution.

The salary range for this role is $170,000 - $230,000. The salary for this position is determined based on a variety of job-related factors that may include location, relevant experience, education, or particular skills and expertise.
