About the role:

The Global Commercial Sales team is the engine of growth for the company, targeting a $1.9B+ ACV with a 30%+ YoY growth mandate. This HQ-based role serves as the critical "connective tissue" between the SVP’s global strategy and regional execution. You will be responsible for ensuring that global initiatives—specifically the Corporate High-Touch model and Territory Growth scaling—are effectively operationalized across all Geo sales organizations. This is a matrixed role requiring the ability to influence without direct authority to ensure a unified "ONE Commercial" approach.

1. Strategic Strategy-to-Execution Management

• Operationalize the CY26 Strategy: Take the high-level priorities from the Global Commercial Planning Guide and translate them into actionable project plans for the Geo markets.

• Out-Quarter Pipeline Activity Tracking: Coordinate the global rhythm for "Precision Sprints" (focused on Corporate subsegments) and "Scale Sprints" (focused on Territory partner-led growth).

• Cross-Function Execution: Identify and manage dependencies across HQ functions (Marketing, Ecosystem, Tech Sales, and Renewals) to ensure the field receives a cohesive strategy rather than fragmented instructions.

2. Geo-Market Alignment & Field Readiness

• Matrix Leadership: Act as the primary HQ point of contact for Geo-based Program Managers and Sales Ops to ensure global initiatives (like the Territory Core/Growth split) are landing effectively.

• Enablement Oversight: Monitor and report on "Field Readiness" metrics, ensuring Geo teams are completing required TDP Credentials and Sales Play badges.

• Feedback Loop: Establish a formal mechanism to capture "voice of the field" insights to refine global strategies for the subsequent planning cycles.

• Cross-Function Proxy: Supporting the orchestration of cross functional teams to ensure alignment and support follow-up and aligned engagement from the global commercial team.

3. Executive Reporting & Analytics

• Performance Dashboards: Partner with the Sales Operations team to track global progress against the $1.9B ACV target and Cloud Consumption goals.

• SVP Briefings: Prepare high-impact presentations and status updates for the SVP of Global Commercial Sales, focusing on execution risks, geo-specific bottlenecks, and success stories.

4. Executive Management

• Provide executive management support, including calendar management, expense reporting, event coordination, as a backup to the SVPs Project Manager when required. 

• Backup support to third party onboarding 

What you will bring:

• Experience: 3–5 years of program/project management experience in a fast-paced, global technology environment.

• Matrix Navigation: Proven ability to drive results in a matrixed organization where resources and execution power lie within separate regional teams.

• Commercial Knowledge: A foundational understanding of B2B sales motions, specifically the difference between high-touch "Corporate" sales and partner-led "Territory" sales.

• Agile Mindset: Proficiency with project management tools (Jira, Smartsheet, or Asana) and a comfort level with "high-velocity" quarterly planning cycles.

Communication: Exceptional "executive presence" with the ability to simplify complex strategic concepts into clear, actionable guidance for field teams.
