Strategic Incentive Planning & Target Modeling Lead the structural configuration and target distribution of the Global Sales Incentive (GSI) / Incentive Plan Layout (IPL), serving as the Global Subject Matter Expert (SME) across geographies during deployment. Drive organizational Headcount (HC) Modeling and Budgeting routines, computing the exact headcount resources necessary per sales target bracket and continuously reconciling tracking charts and organizational trees. Facilitate comprehensive business design strategies, including the annual Fall Plan, target consolidation/distribution, and various types of incentive matrices. Multi‑Tier Business Cadences & Communications Prepare, orchestrate, and author background presentations for high‑profile stakeholder syncs: Weekly Performance Reviews, Monthly ELT Business Briefs, Quarterly All‑Hands, and Geo Quarterly Business Reviews. Govern and run sales contest frameworks, completing quantitative data validations and identifying winner results. Provide weekly multi‑regional forecast reviews while managing ad‑hoc operations requests globally. Required Experience & Professional Profile 7+ years of experience in Sales Operations, Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A), or Strategic Business Analytics within a fast‑paced enterprise software or SaaS organization (Open Source background a major plus).
