Job Description:

We’re looking for a Director of Deal Strategy & Execution — a strategic partner to our Sales and GTM leadership — to design, optimize, and scale how Cresta wins complex, high-impact deals. This isn’t a process cop role. It’s a CRO-side consigliere role — equal parts strategist, operator, and creative problem-solver. You’ll shape how Cresta structures, prices, and executes enterprise deals, partnering directly with Sales, Finance, and Legal to make every agreement faster, smarter, and more profitable.

Job Responsibility:

  • Build and lead the Deal Strategy & Execution function
  • Partner with Sales, Finance, and Legal to design scalable deal frameworks
  • Develop playbooks, approval matrices, and pricing guardrails
  • Optimize quote-to-cash systems via partnership with the Revenue Technology team (Salesforce CPQ, CLM, ERP integrations)
  • Provide deal insights and recommendations to GTM leadership
  • Drive measurable improvements in deal velocity, win rate, and margin
  • Hire, coach, and scale a team of high-performing deal strategists

Requirements:

  • 8–12 years in Deal Strategy, RevOps, or Commercial Operations (SaaS)
  • Proven success building deal frameworks or functions from 0→1
  • Strong Salesforce CPQ and SaaS deal architecture experience
  • Exceptional cross-functional communication and executive partnership skills
  • Analytical mindset with focus on speed, scalability, and impact
What we offer:
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage with plans to fit you and your family
  • Flexible PTO to take the time you need, when you need it
  • Paid parental leave for all new parents welcoming a new child
  • Retirement savings plan to help you plan for the future
  • Remote work setup budget to help you create a productive home office
  • Monthly wellness and communication stipend to keep you connected and balanced
  • In-office meal program and commuter benefits provided for onsite employees
  • Offers Equity
