This is a full-time position reporting to the Director of Revenue Operations, New Ventures.

What you'll be doing:

  • Understand regional complexities to build tools, processes, and cross-functional support in guidance with best practice and local needs

  • Uncover leading and lagging indicators of sales performance and predictability to help inform and guide our success
  • Collaborate closely with cross functional teams to drive alignment, communication, and collaboration across departments to ensure seamless execution of initiatives and projects
  • Support the processing of opportunities received from our Resellers in SFDC to accelerate the closure of deals

What you’ll have:

  • 5+ years experience in Sales Operations, GTM Operations and/or business analytics
  • Salesforce knowledge: complex dashboards and reports, custom report types, calculated fields, workflows.
  • Experience administering GTM tools such as SFDC, Salesloft, Gainsight, Zoominfo, Dun & Bradstreet, etc.
  • Exceptional quantitative and MS Excel skills (sumifs, index/match and vlookup, table formulas) to work on complex business issues with minimal supervision
  • Experience working closely with senior leaders in a SaaS B2B business
  • Get-it-done mindset. You are not afraid to roll up your sleeves and do what it takes to get the job done.
  • A ‘what’s best for the business’ attitude, and willing to try new things, tackle complex projects and challenges
  • Excellent interpersonal, communication, and critical thinking skills to navigate the changing landscape at a fast growing company and to work with cross functional partners
  • Bi-lingual with business fluency in English and Japanese preferred.

We understand that not everyone will match each of the above qualifications. However, we also realize that everyone has unique experiences that can add value to our company. Even if you think your background might not perfectly align, we'd love to hear from you!

Life at Udemy

We aspire to be as vibrant and dynamic as the communities we serve, as inquisitive as those who use our platform, and as revolutionary as the future we strive to open for everyone. Here are some of the things we love about life at Udemy:

  • We’re invested in creating an inclusive environment that welcomes a diverse range of backgrounds and experiences. From creating employee resource groups, ensuring we’re a Fair Pay Workplace, and building a flexible work culture, our belonging, equity, diversity, and inclusion (BEDI) initiatives always put our people first. We want you to be able to bring your authentic self to work because when we all do, we’re better for it.

  • Learning is what we do – inside and out. Our Learning & Development team is second to none, helping ensure your journey is one of continuous progression. You’ll also have unlimited access to Udemy courses, monthly UDays (meeting-free professional development days), and a generous annual professional development stipend.

  • Our reason to exist is to revolutionize learning – that calls for taking risks and learning from failures. Whether it’s our hackathons (a company-wide effort to envision new possibilities for our product) or sharing our prototypes, we see experimentation as a crucial step on the path to success.

  • We’re committed to creating world-class employee experiences and are proud of the recognition of this by Great Place to Work.

Of course, the best thing about being part of Udemy is knowing your work makes a difference for people and organizations around the world. You’ve got the skills; why not use them to help others develop theirs?

At Udemy, we value diversity and inclusion and consider qualified applicants without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, ancestry, age, genetic information, sexual orientation, gender identity, marital or family status, veteran status, medical condition, or disability.
