- Quarterly Planning & Review
- Support SDR leadership in quarterly planning with data inputs, program retrospectives, and proposal of new initiatives based on learnings.
- Support Tools & Process Optimization
- Identify friction points in current SDR tools (e.g., Outreach, SFDC), workflows, or lead routing logic, and work with Marketing / Ops teams to implement improvements.
- Collaborate Cross-Functionally
- Partner with Sales Ops, Marketing, Enablement to align programs with broader GTM priorities and ensure smooth execution.
- Measure and Track Program Impact
- Ensure initiatives are tracked with clear KPIs and that program impact is tied back to pipeline contribution or SDR productivity metrics.

Experience & Skills:
- 3–5 years experience in Sales Development Operations, RevOps, Program Management, or related roles.
- Strong proficiency in Salesforce (SFDC) and working knowledge of Outreach, Tableau, or similar tools.
- Skilled in creating dashboards and reports to drive decisions and guide frontline managers.
- Excellent project management skills—able to juggle multiple initiatives with precision and follow-through.
- Demonstrated ability to turn data into insights, and insights into simple, executable action plans.
