Summary of the Role and Team

As Director of Deal Desk & Pricing, you will lead and scale Varicent's Deal Desk function, serving as the central authority for deal governance, pricing operations, quote-to-booking processes, and commercial execution. You'll work closely with Sales, Customer Success, Renewals, Finance, Legal, Product, and Revenue Operations to drive pricing accuracy, data integrity, operational efficiency, and compliance throughout the customer lifecycle. This role combines strategic leadership with hands-on execution — you'll establish the processes, governance frameworks, systems alignment, and team structure that enable scalable growth. This is a people leadership role: you'll manage and grow Deal Desk professionals while improving deal velocity, profitability, forecasting accuracy, and operational excellence.

What You Will Be Doing

  1. Lead and develop the Deal Desk team, including coaching, performance management, capacity planning, and workload prioritization.
  2. Establish and run Deal Desk operating processes: deal intake, approvals, escalations, service-level expectations, and stakeholder communications.
  3. Own quote-to-booking governance for new business, renewals, expansions, and cross-sell opportunities, ensuring pricing accuracy and policy compliance.
  4. Work with Sales and Customer Success on deal structuring, pricing decisions, exception management, and commercial approvals.
  5. Maintain data integrity and system alignment across Salesforce, CPQ platforms, pricing tools, and related commercial systems.
  6. Partner with Finance on forecasting activities, revenue recognition requirements, commercial risk assessments, and audit readiness.
  7. Build and maintain governance frameworks, policies, documentation, and enablement resources that drive consistent business practices.
  8. Lead process improvement and change management initiatives to reduce deal cycle times and improve scalability and reporting quality.

What You Bring

  1. Demonstrated expertise in Deal Desk, Pricing, Revenue Operations, Commercial Operations, FP&A, Commercial Finance, or related business functions (typically gained over 10–12+ years)
  2. Experience leading teams, programs, or cross-functional operational functions (typically 5+ years)
  3. Experience with complex B2B sales motions, including new business, renewals, expansions, and cross-sell transactions
  4. Expertise in Deal Desk operations, pricing governance, quote-to-booking workflows, commercial approvals, and process design
  5. Experience working with Salesforce, DealHub CPQ, or comparable CPQ/CRM platforms
  6. Solid grasp of how pricing structures, commercial terms, ACV, and contract structures impact forecasting and revenue recognition
  7. Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with a track record of using operational data to improve business processes and decisions
  8. Ability to influence senior stakeholders across Sales, Finance, Legal, Customer Success, Product, and Revenue Operations

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
