Pure Storage•Chicago, IL

About The Position

Everpure is hiring a Sales Operations Business Partner to support assigned districts in the AMER Commercial segment. The role works closely with District Managers to manage day-to-day sales operations, maintain data integrity, and coordinate with partners including Deal Desk, Finance, Legal, Channel, Marketing, and Sales Engineers. By taking ownership of operational and administrative workflows, the position gives District Managers more time for coaching and deal execution. Forecast ownership, deal strategy, AE coaching, and executive customer relationships remain with the District Manager; this role supports the underlying sales processes with precise, timely execution. The position is part of the Regional Sales Operations team, which oversees region-wide consistency, governance, and leadership reporting. The role focuses more narrowly and deeply on the day-to-day operations of assigned districts. It is a business-partnering role requiring analytical ability, strong communication, organization, and follow-through, with a stated potential career path toward Sales Operations Manager and Senior Sales Operations Manager roles. The role is based in Chicago and is office-centric, with an expectation to work in the office five days per week. Success in the first six months includes freeing District Managers to spend more time coaching, improving Deal Desk and escalation cycle times and pipeline hygiene, starting forecast calls with clean data, and reducing the time needed to prepare for Quarterly Sales Reviews while improving the value of their insights.
