How you’ll demonstrate Ownership As the Revenue Operations Director, you will own selected global revenue operations processes and work closely with regional presidents to identify areas of stagnation and design targeted processes to address them. You will architect and scale the global engine that powers our "Land-to-Expand" model, ensuring every dollar of potential industrial value is identified, forecasted, and captured through AI-driven precision and operational excellence. What You’ll Do AI-driven forecasting and pipeline health Own the cadence for forecasting and pipeline calls using Clari. While the VP sets the overall strategy, you are responsible for data accuracy and ensuring clear prioritization. Use AI tools (e.g. Clari, Claude Code, Gemini) to generate rolling, real-time forecast scenarios and continuously monitor and score pipeline health. Turn real-time, AI-scored deal data into clear narratives for executive leadership, proactively highlighting risk and helping to mitigate forecast variances well ahead of quarter-end. Territory management Lead the territory setting process by defining criteria for geographic and vertical assignments. Ensure each representative has a fair, data-driven path to achieving quota. Funnel, market, and deal analytics Build and maintain models that show how field activities convert to revenue. When a territory underperforms, analyze contributing factors and refine the model and recommendations accordingly.

Strategic Growth Mindset: You don’t just report on the past; you build predictive models that identify the next $100M opportunity within our existing customer base.
