What you will do
As the Manager, Global Quota Strategy & Sales Incentive Analytics, you will serve as the global program manager for quota planning requirements, methodologies, and governance, ensuring a consistent, data-driven approach to quota setting across regions.
This role bridges Commercial Operations, Sales Leadership, Analytics, and Total Rewards to establish scalable quota-setting frameworks, define business requirements, generate actionable insights on seller compensation effectiveness, and lead the annual global quota-setting process from planning through execution.
While the role partners closely with the Total Rewards / Sales Compensation team, it does not own compensation plan design or the Sales Incentive Plan (SIP) process. Instead, it serves as the commercial lead responsible for quota strategy, quota governance, seller compensation analytics, and the coordination of key stakeholders throughout the annual quota planning cycle.
The ideal candidate combines strong analytical capabilities, program management expertise, and an understanding of sales planning to drive consistency, fairness, and business alignment across the commercial organization.
How you will do it
Quota Strategy, Requirements & Governance
- Own global business requirements related to quota planning, allocation, governance, and execution.
- Define and maintain quota-setting methodologies, allocation frameworks, assumptions, and guardrails aligned with commercial strategy, market opportunity, role design, territory structure, and capacity models.
- Establish quota validation frameworks, quality standards, and governance processes to assess attainment distribution, coverage, fairness, and achievability.
- Serve as the global subject matter expert on quota planning standards, methodologies, and planning timelines.
Annual Quota Planning Program Management
- Serve as the commercial project manager for the annual global quota-setting process.
- Build and manage integrated planning timelines, stakeholder engagement plans, milestones, dependencies, and governance forums.
- Coordinate activities across Sales Operations, Finance, Commercial Excellence, Analytics, Sales Leadership, and Total Rewards to ensure successful execution.
- Identify risks, escalation points, and process bottlenecks while driving resolutions and alignment.
- Lead post-cycle reviews and continuous improvement initiatives to enhance future quota-setting cycles.
Seller Compensation Analytics & Insights
- Develop and maintain analytics, metrics, and reporting frameworks to assess seller compensation effectiveness and quota performance.
- Analyze quota attainment, pay-for-performance alignment, earnings distribution, incentive effectiveness, and plan outcomes.
- Identify trends, risks, and opportunities through data-driven insights and translate findings into actionable recommendations.
- Create executive-level dashboards, review materials, and governance presentations for senior leadership.
- Partner with Total Rewards and Analytics teams to evaluate the impact of compensation programs on sales performance and business outcomes.
Quota Playbooks & Enablement Tools
- Own the development and continuous improvement of global quota-setting playbooks, methodologies, templates, and planning tools.
- Build standardized quota allocation models, scenario planning tools, validation frameworks, and planning templates for regional use.
- Ensure planning tools and processes incorporate evolving business priorities, growth strategies, and organizational needs.
- Drive adoption of standards through documentation, training, and stakeholder engagement.
Cross-Functional Partnership & Enablement
- Partner closely with Total Rewards / Sales Compensation to ensure alignment between quota methodologies and incentive plan mechanics.
- Collaborate with Commercial Operations, Finance, Analytics, and Regional Sales Operations leaders to align planning assumptions and outcomes.
- Facilitate governance discussions by providing analytical insights, recommendations, and decision-support materials.
- Enable regional teams through training, communication, documentation, and ongoing consulting support.
- Continuously gather feedback from regions and stakeholders to improve processes, tools, and methodologies.
What we look for
- 5+ years of experience in Sales Operations, Commercial Excellence, Quota Planning, Sales Effectiveness, Revenue Operations, or related commercial planning functions.
