  • Create strong cross-functional relationships with key business partners across the Marketing, Sales, Customer Success, Sales Operations, Product, and Finance organizations.
  • Drive the annual strategic planning process for the team and help organize, track, and evaluate the impact of our strategies and initiatives over time.
