Manager, Sales Strategy & Operations, Commerce Platform

Our Account Development Strategy & Operations team is responsible for designing, building, and running a world-class sales organization to successfully grow our SMB restaurants through leading product solutions. This role supports a high-priority, stealth business unit within our Commerce Platform.

We are currently preparing to launch a brand-new product that is the culmination of years of intensive research, testing, and investment. This product represents a massive strategic priority for the company, solidifying our ecosystem strategy. Our goal is to move beyond being a delivery partner to becoming the foundational technology layer for our merchants. We provide restaurants with the critical products needed to handle all in-store and online channels, serving as the first partner any restaurant turns to for understanding revenue growth drivers and accelerating their business.

About the Role

As a Manager of Sales Strategy & Operations, you will lead the 0 to 1 scaling of our newest strategic product. You will play a pivotal role in bringing this product out of stealth mode and into the hands of SMB restaurants nationwide.

The ideal candidate is a builder who thrives in ambiguity but grounds their work in uncompromising operational rigor. You will be responsible for defining the annual sales vision and strategy, translating high-level company objectives into actionable quarterly sales goals. You will balance long-term strategic vision positioning us as a B2B SaaS powerhouse with the technical and operational discipline required to stand up new functions, audit sales funnels, and leverage cutting-edge AI to maximize productivity. You will report to the Senior Manager of Sales Strategy & Operations, working at the intersection of Product, Sales, and Analytics to turn a research-backed vision into a highly disciplined, scaled revenue engine.

We're excited about you because

• You possess extreme operational discipline: You have a "no stone unturned" approach to operations. You create systems that survive scale and ensure data integrity across all CRM and reporting layers.
• You are a 0-to-1 specialist: You love the lowest level of detail. You have a track record of scaling new initiatives within large, complex organizations. You don't mind getting your hands dirty, moving quick, and imperfection.
• You are an analytical rigorist & truth-seeker: You don't just look at high-level numbers; you dive deep into the funnel to identify root causes. You have a challenger mindset that uses data to guide the team toward the "win-win-win."
• You are tech-forward: You are passionate about the future of sales productivity and are eager to experiment with AI-driven tools to give our team a competitive edge.
• You are a strategic leader: You can zoom out to see the "ecosystem" while zooming in to fix a broken operational process or tooling issue.
