The Professional Services Operations Manager is responsible for driving operational excellence across the services organization. This role ensures the business is set up to scale efficiently, optimize profitability, and deliver high-quality outcomes for customers.

• Manage billing operations and escalations, ensuring timely, accurate invoicing and resolution of customer disputes
• Identify and mitigate revenue leakage risks across the services lifecycle (from booking to billing)
• Own and optimize PS systems and tools (e.g., PSA, reporting platforms), ensuring data accuracy and usability
• Establish operational governance rhythms (e.g., forecast reviews, utilization tracking, business reviews)
• Lead cross-functional alignment to close process gaps and drive durable solutions - not just recommendations
• Drive change management and enablement for new processes, tools, and operational initiatives
• Continuously improve customer and internal experience by reducing friction in services engagement and delivery
Qualifications:
• 8+ years of experience in Professional Services, Operations, or related roles
• Strong understanding of services business models, including utilization, revenue recognition, and margin drivers
