Senior Associate, Sales Strategy and Operations

You'll partner closely with Sales Leadership, Sales Managers and cross-functional teams (Finance, Product, Analytics, Operations and Partner Management) to set the team up for success-ensuring we are working toward the right goals, with clear plans, strong reporting and the tools and processes to deliver.

You're excited about this opportunity because you will...

• Own the development, implementation and administration of incentive structures for the Enterprise & Mid-Market Sales organisation, partnering with Sales Leadership, Sales Strategy, Finance and Product.

• Build and maintain forecast, quota and performance models, and set and track quota targets aligned to topline goals.

• Diagnose performance and deliver data-driven recommendations to improve productivity and outcomes.

• Run the GTM operating cadence for Enterprise & Mid-Market (e.g. weekly reporting, pipeline health, Salesforce hygiene) in partnership with front-line Sales leaders.

• Scope and launch experiments and GTM initiatives to increase Sales productivity; build business cases and models to quantify impact and trade-offs.

• Support territory and coverage, and resource allocation decisions; lead cross-functional projects to remove friction and scale the sales engine.

We're excited about you because...

• You have 4+ years of experience in sales strategy & operations, sales planning, consulting, analytics, corporate strategy, banking, technology or a related field, with a track record of delivering initiatives and helping teams hit goals.

• You have a Bachelor's degree (or equivalent practical experience).

• You're comfortable using Excel / Google Sheets day-to-day to answer business questions and keep teams aligned (e.g., building trackers, weekly performance summaries, quota/attainment reporting, basic forecasting, or incentive/commission calculations).

• You have basic SQL skills (or are keen to learn) - for example, running queries to pull revenue for a merchant/segment/time period, check weekly trends, or validate numbers used in reporting and dashboards.

• You've partnered with Sales teams and used a CRM (Salesforce is a plus) to understand pipeline health and support strong operating habits.

• You're a clear communicator and collaborator - you can explain what the numbers mean, align stakeholders, and turn insights into practical recommendations.

• You take ownership, follow through, and can prioritise effectively in a fast-moving environment (even when things aren't perfectly defined).
