Sales Strategy & Operations Manager At Expedia Group, we help travelers explore the world, one journey at a time. As a global travel company powered by passionate people, trusted partnerships, and leading technology, we connect travelers, partners, and advertisers through our consumer brands, B2B network, and travel advertising business. Here, you'll do meaningful work that helps millions of people discover, book, and experience travel with more ease, confidence, and joy. Our five Behaviors-Traveler First, Think Big, Operate with Excellence, Ownership Mindset, and Succeed Together-help foster a supportive environment where people can grow their careers and have the flexibility, benefits, and support to do their best work. Join us and build for travelers everywhere.
The role: You will improve how the EGA sales organization runs. You will own initiatives across lead and opportunity management, account planning, go-to-market processes, workflow automation and reporting. You will use Salesforce and data to find what is slowing sellers down, design the fix, and drive it to adoption. You will influence stakeholders and senior leaders across the organization and help shape the future of our advertising sales operations strategy. This is a sales operations and business process role. It is not an ad operations or campaign management role, and it is not a quota-carrying sales role.
In this role, you will:
  • Sales systems and workflows
  • Design, implement and optimize workflows and operational processes that improve sales productivity, efficiency and effectiveness.
  • Lead initiatives in lead management, opportunity workflows, account design, account planning and go-to-market processes for new products and solutions.
  • Evaluate and implement automation, reporting and data-driven tools that improve operational performance and decision-making.
  • Analytics and insight
  • Investigate business challenges, analyze data, and turn findings into actionable recommendations and business requirements.
  • Measure the effectiveness of programs and process changes using data analysis, stakeholder feedback and performance metrics.
  • Develop business cases and size opportunities to support investment in process improvements.
  • Programs and change
  • Lead complex cross-functional projects: build project plans, define milestones, manage risks and budgets where applicable, and drive execution against business objectives.
  • Support change management and adoption by partnering with internal teams on training and enablement.
  • Create clear documentation, presentations, policies and training resources.
  • Partnership and influence
  • Partner with Sales, Marketing, Salesforce, Analytics and Ad Operations to gather requirements, identify business challenges and develop scalable solutions.
  • Act as a trusted advisor to stakeholders and senior leaders, providing operational expertise and recommendations.
  • Collaborate with Field Operations partners on sales planning, territory design, compensation, incentives and sales enablement.
  • Track advertising, technology, travel and media trends to identify opportunities for process innovation.

Demonstrated ability to influence and communicate with senior leaders and cross-functional stakeholders, including without direct authority.
