Who are we looking for?

Vestwell is seeking an ambitious individual to be the first hire dedicated entirely to SalesOps. To date, our Revenue Operations team and Sales Leadership have shared this responsibility, but our scale has outgrown this model, and it is now time to hire a full time person dedicated to this purpose.

The right candidate will become the connective tissue between Sales Leadership and Revenue Operations, focused on supporting the sales team in ways that enables increased performance, achieves more aggressive goals quicker, and enhances the sales motions by synthesizing data to make the sales experience as effective as possible. With 5x the number of partnerships and 3x the size of the sales team we had 12 months ago, it is more important than ever to ensure our motions work at scale and we are able to iterate quickly. Ultimately, you will be the person responsible for optimal time to value and the ability to hit revenue targets by ensuring sales rep time is spent on high impact initiatives and activities.

The ideal candidate is able to call upon project management & strategic thinking fundamentals to understand our go to market motion, map that to an evolving framework for how Vestwell sells retirement plans at scale, evaluate outcomes in a highly analytical and data driven way, suggest new solutions that touch people, process, and technology, implement change, remove blockers from our sales process, and ultimately contribute to the growth of the business.

A person who would thrive in this role is a structured problem solver who can quickly get to the heart of an issue, excels in systems thinking, and is scrappy, determined, logical, and analytical. You must have the interpersonal skills, tenacity, and common sense to be an agent of change. In this role, you will be given significant agency to devise a strategy and approach for achieving your goals, requiring you to exercise good judgment, independently build consensus across several stakeholders, and succeed or fail by your ability to drive results.

What will you be doing?

• Sales Reporting and Analysis:

• An understanding by each channel, segment, partner (or any other way sales defines and deems important to parse the data by) of all key performance indicators of the sales cycle (CAC, Average Sales Cycle Length, Close Rate, Cost Per Lead, Time To Close, Win/Loss Ratio, Loss Reasons, etc).

• Growth Forecasting in addition to evaluating data points that index and predict actuals vs targets. Identify and make actionable recommendations on what is needed to bridge the gap

• Commission calculation

• Sales Training and stage movement (How to use the tech stack, not how to be a sales person. E.g how to load an opp in Salesforce, how to import lists to Salesloft, POC for CRM; SFDC questions)

• Knowledge Base Management

Requirements

• 6+ years of experience in sales operations

• Knowledge of the retirement or another relevant area of the financial services industry
