We’re looking for a Deal Desk Lead to help our GTM teams structure and close deals that support durable revenue growth. You’ll partner with the field, the Head of Revenue Operations, and Finance and Legal leadership to balance customer needs with company priorities. You’ll own Deal Desk end to end and build the team as we grow. This is a hands-on role for someone who moves with urgency and finds workable solutions, not simply obstacles or approval paths. WHAT YOU’LL DO - Partner with the field: Engage early on complex opportunities, understand customer needs, and remove obstacles to close. Bring Sales, Finance, and Legal together to resolve issues quickly. - Structure deals and balance trade-offs: Shape pricing, discounts, commitments, and payment terms. Weigh customer value, revenue, profitability, and risk, offering practical alternatives rather than a simple yes or no. - Own review and approvals: Run a responsive process for nonstandard deals and exceptions. Apply policies consistently and escalate decisions beyond your authority with clear options and a recommendation. - Ensure accurate execution: Ensure quotes, order forms, approvals, and CRM records reflect agreed terms.
