Sr. Manager, Commercial Operations & Deal Desk

Betterment • New York City, NY

14h • Hybrid

About The Position

Betterment is looking for a Senior Manager, Commercial Operations & Deal Desk to serve as the execution arm of our Revenue Operations team, reporting to the Senior Director, Head of Revenue Operations. As our commercial engine grows, you'll own our Revenue Operations processes (spanning supporting our go-to-market and post-sales teams) and own Deal Desk and Promotions. This role calls for someone who thinks like a process owner first: you are someone who notices friction and inefficiency before anyone flags it, and is motivated to design it out of the system rather than work around it. You’ll map how work actually flows across those handoffs today and redesign it so it holds up as we scale, including partnering with our Business Systems & Tools team, who own the technical build. Deal Desk and promotions carry real dollar and margin impact, so you’ll be trusted to partner with Sales, Finance, and Legal and make judgment calls without every decision being checked. This is a high-visibility individual contributor role for an operator who wants real autonomy and wants a direct, dollar impact on Betterment’s growth. This role is based out of our NYC office.

Requirements

• 7+ years of experience in deal desk, sales operations, commercial operations, or a related function, ideally within a B2B SaaS, fintech, or financial services environment
• Strong analytical skills, with the ability to build and maintain pricing and margin analyses and reporting / dashboards that translate deal data into actionable insights
• Demonstrated experience structuring and negotiating non-standard commercial deals and promotions, including pricing and discounting
• Hands-on expertise designing commercial processes across the full funnel (in end-to-end commercial process), with a track record of building workflows that scale with growth
• Excellent cross-functional collaboration skills, with a track record of partnering effectively with Sales, Marketing, Customer Experience, Legal, and Finance stakeholders
• Ability to operate in ambiguity and building net-new processes and policies from scratch with a genuine operational efficiency mindset
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to explain commercial and contractual concepts clearly to broader audiences
• Comfortable operating with real decision-making autonomy.
• Strong working knowledge of Salesforce and other go-to-market systems / tooling
