Role Overview
Factori is entering a phase where execution discipline matters more than ambition. We run multiple demand engines—Marketing, SDR/Inside Sales, Partnerships, Agencies, and Customer Success. While pipeline volume is growing, we face challenges in:
- Conversion consistency
- Forecast credibility
- Pipeline hygiene
- Decision-quality in leadership forums
The GTM Operations Lead owns the operating system of revenue.
This is a control tower role, not a tooling, reporting, or admin function. The mandate is to create clarity, enforce discipline, and ensure leadership can make confident, fact-based decisions every single week.
