We are seeking a Senior Vice President of Global Sales Strategy, Planning & Operations to serve as the strategic backbone of our global sales organization. This leader will own the design and execution of go-to-market strategy, sales planning, and day-to-day sales operations - including leadership of our Sales Acceleration function - for a business built on a consumption-based revenue model. The ideal candidate combines analytical rigor with operational excellence and the cross-functional influence to align Sales, Finance, Product, and HR around a shared growth strategy.

We are looking to speak to candidates who are based in NYC, San Francisco, or Palo Alto for our hybrid working model.

Sales Acceleration
  • Build and run a global Sales Acceleration function to drive pipeline velocity, deal execution, and rep ramp/productivity
  • Own Sales Acceleration's role in bringing new products to market at scale - partnering with the broader GTM organization to build repeatable launch playbooks, enablement, and readiness programs that get reps productive on new offerings quickly
  • Design scalable frameworks for new product introduction (NPI) that can flex across regions, segments, and rep populations without re-inventing process per launch
  • Identify and remove friction in the sales cycle through tooling, process redesign, and enablement programs
  • Establish metrics and feedback loops to continuously improve acceleration program ROI, including time-to-productivity for new product launches

Compensation & Quota
  • Design and administer global sales compensation plans and incentive structures aligned to consumption-based growth metrics

  • Partner with HR and Finance on compensation governance, approvals, and plan changes

Operations & Systems
  • Lead global sales operations, including CRM/tooling strategy, data integrity, reporting, and process standardization
  • Build scalable operating rhythms (QBRs, forecast calls, pipeline reviews) across global regions
  • Drive modeling and analytics that give leadership real-time visibility into pipeline health, consumption trends, new product adoption, and revenue risk

Cross-Functional Leadership
  • Serve as the primary sales-side partner to Finance, Product, and HR on planning, resourcing, and compensation matters
  • Represent Sales in the GTM organization shaping product strategy, pricing, packaging, and launch timing for new products in a consumption model
  • Build and lead a high-performing global team, managing resources across multiple regions/time zones
What You'll Bring
  • 10+ years of experience in sales strategy, sales operations, or revenue operations leadership roles, ideally within a consumption/usage-based business model
  • Proven track record designing compensation plans, quota models, and territory/segmentation strategy at global scale
  • Strong financial and analytical acumen; experience partnering directly with Finance on forecasting and modeling
  • Experience building or scaling a Sales Acceleration or sales enablement function, including launching new products through a GTM organization at scale
  • Demonstrated success leading global, distributed teams and driving cross-functional alignment with Product and HR
