Position Summary
The Process Transformation Lead partners with leaders across Revenue (Sales, Sales Engineering, Marketing, and Sales Operations) to design, lead, and measure the end-to-end optimization of business processes. The role is responsible for establishing and operating a structured methodology that combines process excellence, analytics, and technology (including AI and automation) to deliver measurable improvements in productivity, cycle time, decision quality, and business outcomes. The Process Transformation Lead is expected to lead the full lifecycle of process improvement initiatives - from discovery and diagnosis through design, implementation, and post-launch measurement - and to support the governance, frameworks, and feedback mechanisms that allow the organization to continuously evolve how work is done.
Primary Responsibilities
Lead the end-to-end lifecycle of process transformation initiatives across Revenue functions, including discovery, current-state mapping, diagnosis, prioritization, future-state design, implementation, and measurement.
Maintain the methodology playbook that governs how process improvement work is scoped, designed, executed, and validated across the organization.
Partner with the AI Tiger Team, Digital team, automation engineering, and analytics teams to embed AI, automation, and predictive capabilities into redesigned workflows where they earn their place.
Facilitate structured discovery and mapping sessions with cross-functional stakeholders and subject matter experts across the business to surface friction, decision gaps, and improvement opportunities.
Apply structured prioritization frameworks (Impact × Feasibility × Strategic Fit) to maintain a ranked working backlog of transformation opportunities aligned to Revenue priorities.
Define and track the three-tier metrics framework: business outcomes, process metrics, and adoption - for every initiative, ensuring baseline, target, and measured actuals are documented before kickoff.
Establish feedback mechanisms that capture how launched solutions are performing, across user feedback, system data, business outcomes, and customer signals, and use those insights to inform the next cycle of prioritization decisions.
Partner with business owners to ensure every initiative has clear outcome accountability outside the transformation team.
Partner with change management, enablement, and training teams to ensure adoption sustains beyond launch.
Apply structured decision frameworks to determine the right blend of process redesign, analytics, automation, and AI capabilities for each transformation initiative.
