Collaborate with Product, Sales, Onboarding, and Strategy leaders to identify customer needs, influence roadmap decisions, and design cohesive sales programs, incentive plans, and GTM strategies that connect across global functions for a seamless customer journey. Performance Analysis: Regularly report on key metrics to identify strengths and areas for improvement, using data-driven insights to guide decision-making. Lead the team with a disciplined, data-driven approach to continually assess business performance and achieve quarterly sales targets. Customer Engagement: Drive strategies to boost engagement, upsell, and retention, rapidly testing data-driven ideas for continuous improvement.
