Job Overview:

The Director of Business and Revenue Operations is a blended role driving for organizational effectiveness and optimizing the revenue engine to support growth across D2C (families), B2B2C (school choice marketplaces), and B2B (schools and districts) markets. This leader owns operational strategy and execution, KPI development and reporting, process improvement, revenue-related tooling, and order management and fulfillment. The Director has two primary responsibilities: (1) supporting the President by helping to bridge executive strategy with daily operations and (2) enabling sales and retention-based teams to achieve revenue goals. The role reports to the President and works closely with department heads within Time4Learning and leaders across the larger Cambium Learning group.

  • Serve as operational lead for major strategic initiatives and projects within T4L and across the larger Cambium Learning Group.

Forecasting/Reporting/Analytics

  • Collaborate with Finance, Sales, and Customer Success leadership on pipeline forecasting, and revenue predictability and visibility.

  • Drive the creation and management of dashboards to track key metrics (e.g. pipeline velocity, win rate).

  • Support customer-facing teams to refine and enhance their reporting and analytics needs.

Process Improvement and Tool Management

  • Refine, reimagine, and optimize lead-to-cash processes (e.g. lead and pipeline management, contracting, order processing, billing).

  • Identify operational bottlenecks and lead cross-functional improvement initiatives to streamline and create efficiencies.

  • Collaborate closely with department heads on company-wide initiatives to automate tasks and processes, and increase efficiency of work flows, using AI and other technologies.

  • Oversee and manage tools used for operations, sales, and revenue supporting teams, including CRM, order management/fulfillment, payment processor, project management system, and merchant processor.

  • Streamline and enhance the entire sales funnel and post-sale management activities as part of continuous improvement practices.

  • Drive operational readiness for new products, partnerships, customer segments, and market expansion initiatives.

Order Management and Fulfillment

  • Set up bulk customers on LMS/SIS in collaboration with Product and Engineering staff.

  • Collaborate with Product and Engineering on account provisioning enhancements.

  • Process bulk orders and related reporting.

  • Ensure data accuracy for accounting, licensing, and customer needs.

Job Requirements:

  • 7-10 years experience in business and/or sales operations, PMO, and/or strategic planning, supporting any combination of sales, revenue, and/or customer success.

  • BA/BS degree required in business/business administration or similar field, and/or equivalent experience.

  • Lean six sigma, Kaizen, TQM, or BQM certification preferred; demonstrated success with process improvement in a SaaS/software/technology environment required.

  • Data-driven mindset with experience using metrics and KPIs to improve operational performance.

  • Ability to partner with executive leadership and cross-functional teams to translate strategic priorities into operational plans.

  • Hands-on expertise optimizing lead-to-cash processes, including pipeline management, contracting, order processing, billing, account provisioning, and renewals.

  • Proven ability to lead cross-functional initiatives and influence stakeholders across business and technology teams.

  • Strong analytical, project management, and organizational skills, with the ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.

  • Ability to hire, train, and lead a high performing team.
