Director, Revenue Operations

New Relic New Relic · Enterprise · CA · Sales, Operations

Director of Revenue Operations at New Relic, focusing on GTM architecture, planning, and engineering. This role involves defining commercial strategy, managing GTM systems (Salesforce, CPQ, Anaplan, Xactly), driving revenue automation, and ensuring alignment with strategic objectives. The position requires leadership experience, strategic thinking, and expertise in GTM tech stacks and processes to optimize sales velocity and efficiency within an AI-first observability platform company.

What you'd actually do

  1. Own the GTM Architecture: Define markets, segments, roles, coverage models, and the underlying planning logic that turns business strategy into a deployable revenue system.
  2. Lead Annual Planning End-to-End: Drive capacity modeling, territory design, quota allocation, and the headcount and expense plans that fund the organization.
  3. Incentive & Quota Design: Act as the GTM thought leader on compensation. Design and implement all GTM comp plans to drive desired behaviors, and manage the end-to-end quota methodology to ensure equitable targets.
  4. Tech Stack Strategy & Architecture: Own the roadmap and design for our GTM systems (e.g., Salesforce, CPQ, Anaplan, Xactly). Conduct field discovery to identify high-impact workflow opportunities and ensure technology follows our "Signal Strategy."
  5. Revenue Automation & Process Replacement: Lead complex projects to systematically eliminate manual "CRM debt." Build behavior-based trigger architectures and automated data enrichment so reps spend more time selling and less time doing administrative work.
