In this lead-level role, you will partner closely with Channel Sales Leadership, Sales Compensation, and regional stakeholders across the US, EMEA, and APAC to design, analyze, and optimize channel programs, quotas, territories, and incentives. Success in this role requires not only strong analytical capability, but also the ability to influence senior leaders, translate channel strategy into execution, and drive measurable business results. If you have hands-on experience supporting, building, and scaling a B2B SaaS channel business, we'd love to hear from you.
Your Role Responsibilities? Here's What You'll Do.

* Analyze channel performance, pipeline health, revenue contribution, partner productivity, and market trends to provide insights that inform strategic decisions.
* Lead channel-focused components of annual sales compensation planning and design in partnership with Sales Compensation; partner with leadership to develop channel targets, quotas, and pipeline expectations aligned to company growth goals.
* Lead efforts to design and cascade channel quotas and coverage models, advising on territory and partner design based on performance and market dynamics; evaluate the effectiveness of channel incentive programs and recommend adjustments to drive desired behaviors and results.
* Develop and maintain reporting and analytics that provide visibility into channel performance (e.g., pipeline growth, revenue impact, NDR, partner effectiveness); transform data into clear, compelling insights and recommendations for senior leadership.
* Operate as a thought leader in channel planning and analytics, contributing best practices and external market insights; mentor and support other team members and influence cross-functionally with Sales, Operations, Compensation, Finance, and HR.
Role Essentials
* Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience; 7-10 years of experience in Sales Planning, Sales Operations, or Sales Compensation, with significant experience supporting a channel business.
* Proven experience working with B2B SaaS channel models (VARs, partners, distributors, alliances, etc.); strong understanding of channel economics, incentives, sales compensation, planning frameworks, quota, and territory design.
* Demonstrated ability to partner with senior sales and channel leaders; strong analytical, problem-solving, and data interpretation skills; ability to manage complex, cross-functional initiatives with minimal oversight.
* Excellent communication and presentation skills, with the ability to tell clear, outcome-driven stories; comfortable operating in a fast-paced, global environment.
* Experience supporting global channel organizations across multiple regions; demonstrated success designing or evolving channel programs that drove measurable revenue or pipeline growth; track record of influencing leadership and driving change through insight and execution.
What We'd Like to See (Preferred Skills)
* Demonstrated ability to act as a trusted advisor to channel leaders, providing recommendations grounded in data, best practices, and real-world channel experience.
* Experience supporting channel organizations across US, EMEA, and APAC regions with a strong understanding of regional market dynamics and partner ecosystems.
* Proven ability to influence without authority by partnering cross-functionally with Sales, Operations, Compensation, Finance, and HR to drive alignment and results.
* Track record of measuring the success of channel initiatives and programs, including business impact, ROI, and pipeline contribution.
* Experience mentoring and supporting team members; ability to contribute to the overall growth, quality, and maturity of the Sales Planning function.
