About The Position

We’re seeking a future team member for the role of Commercial Operations & Cross-Sell Execution Manager to join our Commercial Office. This role is located in New York, NY. The SVP, Commercial Operations & Cross-Sell Execution Manager is a key execution role within the Commercial Hub, focused on advancing BNY’s commercial priorities by helping translate enterprise growth themes into practical cross-sell motions, sales routines, and execution support across the global sales and coverage organization. This role will play an important part in supporting the 1BNY cross-sell agenda, helping business and coverage partners identify, prioritize, activate, and track opportunities across platforms. The role will work closely with Commercial Hub leadership, GTM Strategy, sales leaders, and business partners to strengthen how cross-sell priorities move from strategy into field execution — including sales plays, engagement forums, opportunity tracking, client and revenue insights, and follow-through mechanisms. The ideal candidate will combine strong commercial judgment, sales operations experience, analytical rigor, and relationship management skills. This is a hands-on role for someone who can bring structure to ambiguity, coordinate across teams, improve operating discipline, and help drive measurable commercial outcomes through better collaboration across BNY.
