The Role
Build and lead a global Revenue Operations function to deliver predictable revenue. Own forecasting, GTM planning, revenue analytics, CRM governance, revenue systems, deal desk, enablement, and cross-functional cadence to support sales, finance, product, and the board. Scale processes and systems to absorb M&A and product expansion while delivering board-ready reporting and operational rigor.
Summary Generated by Built In
The Opportunity: Trading Technologies is a scaled fintech business at an inflection point. Backed by Private Equity and operating across Tier 1 banks, prop trading firms and asset managers globally, TT has strong product-market fit and a clear growth agenda, including an active M&A pipeline. What it needs to build is a revenue operating system.
This is the role that installs the operating system. The Global Head of Revenue Operations is the single point of accountability for predictable revenue at TT: owning the forecast, the data model, and the end-to-end operating rhythm that connects the GTM engine to Finance, Product and the Board. This is a build mandate, not a maintenance one.
Reporting directly to the Chief Revenue Officer, this candidate will build and lead the global Revenue Operations function, serving as the operational backbone of Trading Technologies' commercial organization. The role owns forecasting, GTM planning, revenue analytics, CRM, sales operations, deal desk, commercial systems, compensation operations and the operating cadence that enables predictable growth.
The Mandate: Three outcomes define success in this role:
01. Drive predictable revenue — forecasting accuracy and pipeline discipline the Board, the deal team and the CFO can rely on. Greater than 90% rolling forecast accuracy at maturity, from a current baseline of manual spreadsheets and offline workflows.
02. Enable scalable growth — segmentation, coverage model and commercial infrastructure that absorbs M&A and product expansion without breaking. TT has acquired three businesses in recent years; more is likely.
03. Act as the GTM control tower — the single connective layer between Sales, CS, Finance, Product, Legal and HR.
The Global Head of Revenue Operations owns the architecture and accountability across seven functional groups. At outset the team will be lean; the build sequence and hiring plan are part of the role.
Revenue Strategy & Planning | Segmentation, coverage model, capacity and territory design, compensation design, GTM planning.
GTM Operations | Pipeline management, lead routing and SLAs, funnel design, CRM governance, customer lifecycle operations.
Data, Analytics & Forecasting | The most critical group at outset: forecasting methodology, pipeline analytics, executive dashboards, cohort analysis, scenario modelling.
Revenue Systems & Tools | CRM architecture, tech stack, integrations, automation and the canonical commercial data model.
Enablement & Productivity | Onboarding, playbooks, product training, messaging and ongoing skills and tool enablement.
Deal Desk & Commercial Operations | Pricing governance, discount approvals, contract structuring, complex Tier 1 deal support and commercial policy.
Revenue Programs & Cadence | Weekly pipeline reviews, forecast calls, QBRs, KPI dashboards, executive reporting, Thoma Bravo deliverables and initiative tracking.

The Company
What We Do
Trading Technologies creates professional trading software, infrastructure and data solutions for a wide variety of users. Be aware of fraudulent job postings: It has come to our attention that individuals pretending to represent Trading Technologies are posting fake job ads on LinkedIn and possibly other job boards. These individuals conduct candidate interviews via Skype and extend offers, likely with the intent to collect personal information such as banking information, social security number or date of birth. They use a Gmail email address that is not affiliated with Trading Technologies. Only emails using a tradingtechnologies.com or trade.tt email address are authentic. Although we use third party recruiting agencies on a case-by-case basis, all candidates speak with a staff member who has a valid company email address before any offers are extended or personal information collected. Our open positions are posted on BuiltIn and on the Careers page of our website.
