The Revenue Strategy & Operations team @ X is a high impact, high visibility team whose mission is to drive strategic alignment and operational improvements across X’s global business. We partner with Sales, Finance, Marketing and Product to drive strategic planning, identify new revenue opportunities, provide business critical insights, and improve internal productivity.
As an Associate Revenue Strategy and Operations Manager, you will drive operational best practices that shape the strategic direction of X’s global business. You will have the opportunity to manage several projects that promote operational efficiency and revenue acceleration.

We're looking for a self-starter, who is deeply analytical and detail-oriented, with the ability to work independently. We work in a structured manner and our team thrives in ambiguity. You do not shy away from rolling up your sleeves, slicing and dicing extensive sets of information, and crafting solutions to problems that have not been tackled yet.
