About the role

AfterQuery is hiring a GTM (Go-to-market) Operations Lead to power the throughput of our revenue engine. Sales Ops at AfterQuery is accountable for the machinery behind every deal and for metrics like close rate and time-to-close. You will work alongside Engagement Managers (EMs), taking end-to-end ownership of the execution layer of that machine so the team can spend more time with customers.

What they're looking for

  • 5-7+ years of experience in sales operations, revenue operations, business operations, banking/consulting, or a similarly execution-heavy, analytical role, you’ve built sales or revops from 0 to 1, and/or have grown a similar team at a fast-growing startup
  • Proven high-volume execution: you can run ten workstreams in parallel, keep every ball in the air, and your error rate stays near zero. Detail is not a chore for you, it’s a reflex
  • Altitude switcher: equally comfortable doing data entry at 9am and proposing a process redesign at 3pm. Neither phases you
  • Systems thinking: you have strong opinions on a revenue tech stack, and learn AI-native tools fast (CRMs like Attio/Salesforce/HubSpot, billing systems, spreadsheets at an advanced level). You instinctively look for automation
  • Strong communicator: you’re a storyteller with numbers - i.e. clear, concise customer-facing updates, internal status reports, and clean documentation informing action
  • High agency, low ego. You don’t wait to be assigned, you see the gap, close it, and iterate
