You'll sit at the intersection of Sales, Finance, Legal, and Customer Success — making deals close faster, customer onboarding smoother, and revenue flow cleaner.

This hybrid role is based in Boston and requires live commutable distance to the office. Key responsibilities include owning the bookings process, driving accurate billing, and leading end-to-end

Qualifications

• Proven leadership experience in a fast‑scaling software or SaaS environment.
• Deep understanding of the Quote-to-Cash cycle and the levers that drive revenue accuracy and efficiency.
• Strong Salesforce expertise; familiarity with NetSuite, Zuora, Conga, SFDC CPQ, or comparable ERP/billing tools is a plus.
• Exceptional communication skills across all levels, from CFO to junior analyst.
• A genuine ownership mindset and structured project management skills, comfortable running multiple workstreams in a high‑pace environment.

• Own the integrity of the company's bookings process end-to-end, enforcing the controls that protect revenue accuracy and support audit readiness.
• Drive accurate, timely billing across License, Subscription, and Professional Services contracts, reducing errors and accelerating cash collection.
• Champion the end-to-end Quote-to-Cash process and track KPIs (SLAs, backlog, billing accuracy, cycle times), eliminating friction across CRM, CPQ, and ERP systems and translating performance data into decisions.
• Manage the customer lifecycle from signature to separation — coordinating onboarding (license provisioning, welcome workflows, SLA tracking) and offboarding (contract termination, license revocation, final billing).
• Own license operations across customer provisioning, demo environments, and partner enablement, and partner with Sales and Customer Success on renewal quote production so no renewal falls through the cracks.
• Manage channel order processing and partner license fulfillment for the reseller and distributor ecosystem.
• Serve as the operational backbone for Sales, CS, and Finance — triaging and resolving support requests against SLAs that mean something, while providing sound judgment on non‑standard terms, pricing exceptions, and commercial edge cases.
• Act as the senior point of escalation for billing disputes, provisioning failures, and partner issues, and support the design and delivery of training programs that scale with the business.
• Manage and develop a team of 2 operations professionals across global markets, coaching and building a team people are proud to be part of.
• Lead cross‑functional improvement initiatives with Transformation, IT, RevOps, and Finance to drive automation, and champion data integrity and audit/internal control documentation across operational workflows.
