Responsibilities
- Business rhythm & forecasting — Own the weekly pipeline and capacity cadence with your aligned sales leader(s); build rolling forecasts that hold up under scrutiny in monthly business reviews
- Program & process operations — Design and run the operational playbook for your pillar — partner/reseller onboarding, deal-desk and quoting support, or comp-plan mechanics, depending on the role — so the right behavior is the easy behavior
- Planning — Support annual and in-year planning (targets, territory/account alignment, capacity) in partnership with the Partner Planning and Partner Data Ops teams
- Data & reporting — Be accountable for your pillar's performance data; build and maintain dashboards that tell an honest, actionable story to your sales leader(s) and to Partner Planning & Ops leadership
- Cross-functional partnership — Represent your pillar in cross-functional forums (Systems, BI, Finance, Deal Desk, Legal) and translate their requirements back to your team
- Team coordination — Prioritize and quality-check the day-to-day work of the analysts and contract workers aligned to your pillar; onboard new contract resources and keep their work aligned to the operating cadence
- Governance — Flag risks early, drive QBR and exec-review prep for your pillar, and keep documentation (SOPs, playbooks) current as process evolves
- Continuous improvement — Find friction in the seller and partner workflow and fix it proactively — not just when it's escalated
Skills

- Experience informally directing, coordinating, or reviewing the work of contractors, vendors, or junior team members — even without formal management title or authority

- Hands-on proficiency with CRM (Salesforce or equivalent) and BI/reporting tools (Tableau, Looker, or equivalent)
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the credibility to influence sales leaders and executives directly
- Comfort operating with ambiguity — this function is being built from scratch, and the muscle for turning a blank page into a repeatable process is essential
