o Foster a culture of accountability, performance, and continuous improvement.
o Implement career development programs and succession planning for leadership roles.

Revenue & Performance Management:
o Own GRR and NRR targets for AMER; deliver accurate forecasting and reporting.
o Drive operational excellence through standardized processes, playbooks, and KPIs.
o Identify and execute upsell and cross-sell opportunities within the renewal cycle.

Digital Transformation:
o Build and scale digital engagement programs for SMB and mid-market customers.
o Implement tools and workflows for automated renewals, proactive outreach, and predictive analytics.
o Partner with Product and Marketing to enhance digital customer journeys.

Cross-Functional Collaboration:
o Align with Finance on forecasting and revenue recognition.
o Work closely with Customer Success to ensure seamless handoffs and retention strategies.
o Collaborate with Operations to optimize systems and reporting infrastructure.

Qualifications:

• Experience implementing digital engagement strategies and automation at scale.
• Strong operational background with expertise in forecasting, pipeline management, and revenue operations.
• Exceptional leadership, communication, and change management skills.
• Familiarity with Strategic and SMB segments and the nuances of each motion.
