About The Position

The Sales Strategy & Operations Analyst is a highly accountable operator and analytical thinker responsible for maintaining and evolving the systems that power our Sales organization. This role sits at the center of how we deploy and optimize our sales coverage — spanning territory design, headcount planning, and day-to-day operational execution. Our Sales organization operates differently from traditional models, requiring a thoughtful approach to how coverage, capacity, and performance are defined and managed. This role plays a key part in translating those dynamics into clear, actionable operating plans. You will own a regional portfolio and serve as a front-line partner to Sales leadership — ensuring territories are accurately maintained, headcount coverage is proactively managed, and leaders have the insights needed to make informed decisions. You will operate within a set of highly interdependent processes where precision, organization, and follow-through are critical to maintaining trust and business continuity. In addition to core execution, this role offers the opportunity to help shape how we plan and scale the business. You will contribute to evolving our approach to headcount strategy, territory design, and performance benchmarking — partnering on efforts to formalize and improve how decisions are made across the organization. This role is well-suited for someone who combines strong operational discipline with curiosity and ownership — someone who not only executes with precision, but also looks for opportunities to improve how things work.
