Revenue Strategy & Economics Director

1. Revenue Investment Scenario Analysis — End to End • Build and own the investment scenario models the Revenue org uses to evaluate GTM spend — headcount adds, segment and geo expansion, coverage-model changes, overlay and specialist roles, partner leverage • Structure each question as a set of explicit, comparable scenarios — base, upside, downside — with stated assumptions, sensitivities, and the break-even conditions that would flip the answer • Translate models into recommendations: what to fund, what to defer, what to stop, and the expected bookings and efficiency impact of each path • Own the analysis — partnering with RevOps Intelligence to source the data, building the model, pressure-testing it, and presenting it to CRO- and CFO-level stakeholders who will push back on the math 2. Capacity, Coverage & Headcount ROI • Model productive capacity by segment, geo, and role — ramp curves, attrition and backfill lag, quota coverage, and the gap between paper capacity and capacity that will actually carry a number • Quantify the marginal return on the next hire: where the next AE, SE, SDR, or overlay dollar produces the most incremental bookings, and where coverage is already saturated • Build the headcount investment case Revenue leadership takes into budget conversations — including what the plan does not fund and the quantified cost of that choice • Stress-test capacity plans against hiring reality: what the number looks like if recruiting lands 70% of plan, or lands it a quarter late 3. Productivity & Efficiency Economics • Own the productivity analytics that explain yield — time to first deal and to full productivity, attainment distribution, win rates and cycle length by segment, and the drivers behind each • Quantify the bookings cost of attrition and territory disruption, and the return on retention, enablement, or ramp-acceleration investments • Interpret the efficiency metrics leadership is held to — cost per dollar of bookings, sales efficiency, CAC payback — and explain what is actually moving them rather than restating that they moved • Separate signal from noise: distinguish structural productivity differences from territory quality, deal mix, and single-deal effects 4. Cost of Sale Economics • Own Coupa's granular understanding of what a dollar of bookings actually costs us — by product, segment, and motion — once the coverage model, specialist overlays, and center-of-excellence SMEs behind that product are loaded in • Compare cost per dol

The impact of the Revenue Strategy & Economics Director : Location: Remote (Americas time zones) — some travel required Type: Individual contributor (no direct reports) About the Role: The Revenue Strategy & Economics Director is the quantitative backbone of how Coupa decides where to put its next go-to-market dollar. This role builds and owns the scenario models behind the Revenue org's hardest investment questions: what does another ten AEs in a given segment actually return, and when; which segments and geos are earning their cost of coverage; whether a change pays for itself, and in what year. Core scope is the Sales organization; however, it is rapidly expanding to serve other parts of the business (e.g., Partners, Value Solution Advisory, and Customer Success). It is a modeling and judgment role, partnering closely with RevOps Intelligence and FP&A for data and decision-making. The deliverables are recommendations with the math behind them: sized, sensitivity-tested, and framed so the COO, CRO, and CFO can act on them. You'll work within the Revenue Strategy & Planning team that maintains the roster, quota, and bookings infrastructure and serve as RevOps's primary quantitative POV in the annual planning cycle. Your job is to make sure the investment decisions that flow into it are the right ones, and that the assumptions underneath the plan hold up What You'll Do: 1. Revenue Investment Scenario Analysis — End to End • Build and own the investment scenario models the Revenue org uses to evaluate GTM spend — headcount adds, segment and geo expansion, coverage-model changes, overlay and specialist roles, partner leverage • Structure each question as a set of explicit, comparable scenarios — base, upside, downside — with stated assumptions, sensitivities, and the break-even conditions that would flip the answer • Translate models into recommendations: what to fund, what to defer, what to stop, and the expected bookings and efficiency impact of each path • Own the analysis — partnering with RevOps Intelligence to source the data, building the model, pressure-testing it, and presenting it to CRO- and CFO-level stakeholders who will push back on the math 2. Capacity, Coverage & Headcount ROI • Model productive capacity by segment, geo, and role — ramp curves, attrition and backfill lag, quota coverage, and the gap between paper capacity and capacity that will actually carry a number • Quantify the marginal return on the next hire: where the next AE, SE, SDR, or overlay dollar produces the most incremental bookings, and where coverage is already saturated • Build the headcount investment case Revenue leadership takes into budget conversations — including what the plan does not fund and the quantified cost of that choice • Stress-test capacity plans against hiring reality: what the number looks like if recruiting lands 70% of plan, or lands it a quarter late 3. Productivity & Efficiency Economics • Own the productivity analytics that explain yield — time to first deal and to full productivity, attainment distribution, win rates and cycle length by segment, and the drivers behind each • Quantify the bookings cost of attrition and territory disruption, and the return on retention, enablement, or ramp-acceleration investments • Interpret the efficiency metrics leadership is held to — cost per dollar of bookings, sales efficiency, CAC payback — and explain what is actually moving them rather than restating that they moved • Separate signal from noise: distinguish structural productivity differences from territory quality, deal mix, and single-deal effects 4. Cost of Sale Economics • Own Coupa's granular understanding of what a dollar of bookings actually costs us — by product, segment, and motion — once the coverage model, specialist overlays, and center-of-excellence SMEs behind that product are loaded in • Compare cost per dollar of bookings across products and motions, and turn that into a point of view on where to invest coverage, which overlays earn their keep, and where the go-to-market around a product costs more than the product returns • Hold the seller-level detail that makes this real: role from the sales roster, coverage from territory assignment, the SKUs each seller carries in their bag, and actuals from RevOps Analytics and Finance • Because that detail lives here, this role produces the authoritative statement of who gets paid what at month- and quarter-end for the complex overlay and specialist cases standard comp plans don't cleanly resolve • That calculation is an interim anchor, not a permanent one — the goal is to hand it to Sales Comp following their implementation of Anaplan for commissions calculations, and this role builds the methodology that makes the handoff clean 5. GTM Model & Routes-to-Market Analysis • Model coverage and route-to-market alternatives before they become decisions — new-business/expansion splits, accounts-per-rep ratios, ove
