• Proven success leading large initiatives involving cross-functional teams, business processes, systems, and organizational change.
• A solid knowledge of the B2B revenue lifecycle is important, with deep expertise in top-of-funnel motions. This includes managing inbound and outbound prospecting strategies and understanding SDR/IAE/AE productivity metrics.
