Deal Operations
Job Description
Role
We are seeking a strategic and operationally-driven Deal Operations manager to be a cornerstone of our commercial success. You will act as the central nervous system for deal execution - partnering closely with Sales, Legal, Finance, and Security to develop winning proposals, structure and negotiate complex deals, and drive them through to signature. Your primary objective is to accelerate deal velocity while balancing speed with control: ensuring compliance, protecting margin, and maximizing value. This is a high-impact role for a proactive problem-solver who thrives in a fast-paced environment and is passionate about building scalable processes.
This is a process leadership role with real authority over how deals move through Sword and a direct line of impact on revenue velocity, contract quality, and cross-functional trust. You will quarterback complex deals end-to-end and, over time, identify and drive improvements to the systems and workflows you operate in - embedding approved deal structures into Salesforce, improving quote configurations, and building the operational infrastructure that lets a lean team support enterprise deal volume at scale.
The role owns the full commercial lifecycle - from proposal and RFP response, through agreement-in-principle, to executed contract. This is a critical function within Commercial Operations that combines proposal development, deal governance, and customer-facing commercial contracting to improve deal velocity and efficiency.
