Director of Revenue Operations
Xero
OUR PURPOSE
Scheduling isn’t simply filling shifts. It’s finding the sweet spot that enables businesses to grow and team members to enjoy the perfect work/life balance.
At Planday from Xero, we aim to use Agentic AI to build a future where managers seamlessly can free up invaluable time for their business and teams. We’re not just building software; we’re on a mission to make shift work more human, to change work/life balance from a luxury to a reality for all shift workers. We’re using advanced technology to help humans reach their full potential. At work and in life.
Founded in 2004, Planday is headquartered in Copenhagen, Denmark and helps create perfect schedules for hundreds of thousands of users across the world. Planday was acquired by Xero in 2021.
HOW YOU’LL MAKE AN IMPACT
As Director of Revenue Operations, you will own and run the commercial operating system that powers Planday’s growth.
This role exists to bring clarity, control, and momentum to how we plan, execute, measure, and iterate our go-to-market strategy. You will connect strategy to execution by designing scalable processes, owning commercial systems and data definitions, and ensuring leaders have the insight and cadence needed to actively steer growth rather than react to it.
