Sales Pipeline Program Manager, Central EU

Adobe Adobe · Enterprise · Munich, Germany

This role is a Sales Pipeline Program Manager for Adobe's Central EU region. It focuses on orchestrating pipeline generation and progression, translating business priorities into data-driven programs, and analyzing program performance. The role requires strong analytical, program management, and stakeholder management skills within a tech/software B2B environment. While Adobe mentions AI products, this specific role is not directly involved in building or researching AI/ML models.

What you'd actually do

  1. Own the annual Sales Programs plan, covering all structured programs that support pipeline creation and acceleration — aligned with best practices from programmatic approaches used in other regions or companies.
  2. Translate business priorities into targeted, scalable programs and run them end‑to‑end, in close collaboration with Sales, Product Specialists, GTM, Marketing, BDR, Partner Management, and Sales Ops.
  3. Design and operationalize program models with clear objectives, target groups, messaging, assets, reporting rhythm, and success criteria — ensuring programs are easy for sales teams to execute at scale.
  4. Lead strategic sales initiatives, such as regional new‑logo or priority‑account motions, in collaboration with the relevant leaders.
  5. Build and maintain pipeline transparency at territory and product‑group level, communicate insights clearly, and proactively steer decisions, corrective actions, and escalations based on data.
