• Deploy the GOS Sales Squad: Partner with Commercial VPs to institutionalize GO&S participation in late-stage sales pitches, embedding a specialized "Sales Squad" into marquee enterprise deals to turn our redefined Five-Star Care into a primary selling point. • Build Strategic Alignment: Forge strong relationships and operational governance across global commercial leadership and Global Operations and Services to ensure a "CX-first" mindset across the sales cycle. • Govern Scope Boundaries: Standardize and govern the macro-level expectations of global Sales teams, prospects, and implementation partners regarding our operational scope of services and tier definitions. • Ruthlessly Simplify Tier Configurations: Partner with commercial pricing and marketing teams to collapse complex legacy service offerings into unified, high-impact packages that remove market confusion. • Serve as Executive Liaison: Act as the primary operational partner and definitive source of truth for Sales and Commercial leadership during high-value pitches, RFPs, and global go-to-market rollouts. • Optimize Time-to-Value (TTV): Drive structural process improvements and scale automated onboarding frameworks within Global Operations to compress the timeline from contract-signing to a client's first live booking. • Champion the Pre-Sales CX Lens: Serve as the organizational pre-sales customer expert, maintaining a deep understanding of complex market needs, tier economics, and localized global implementation trends. • Architect Data Strategies: Establish a standardized pre-sales data reporting suite (tracking TTV, launch velocity, and custom scoping drag) to drive data-backed commercial decisions. • Synthesize Complex Insights: Leverage a deep understanding of data, intuition, and customer feedback to rapidly extract actionable information and proactively modify the pre-sales operational roadmap. • Enable the Commercial Engine: Empower the Sales and Customer Success organizations with scaled enablement collateral and continuous updates so they can speak transparently, accurately, and effectively about our support ecosystem. • Define Metrics for Success: Partner with global CX and Operations leadership to define, monitor, and scale key performance metrics for the pre-sales and implementation lifecycle. • Ensure Day-1 Excellence: Recommend and implement process optimizations that guarantee newly onboarded clients successfully meet contractually established service level agreements (SLAs) from the moment they go live. • Protect Operational Capacity: Leverage data to speak fearlessly and confidently about operational boundaries, guiding commercial leadership on high-risk custom scoping or premature tier selling.

Role Description As the most experienced practitioner in our implementation function, you'll lead the most complex dealer onboardings in the pipeline while setting the quality bar for the broader team. This means: - Owning end-to-end implementation for our most complex accounts — large multi-rooftop dealer groups, multi-user CRM deployments, and OEM program rollouts requiring bespoke configuration. - Running structured kick-off calls and scoping sessions that accurately capture complexity and align stakeholders before configuration begins. - Configuring DP360 CRM and iMotor Dealer Websites to match each dealer's business structure, workflows, and integration needs. - Delivering hands-on training to dealership teams — from owners and GMs to sales and F&I staff — so everyone's confident and operational at go-live. - Coaching and mentoring junior Implementation Specialists, including QA-reviewing their work before go-live and supporting new hire ramp-up. - Serving as a named escalation point for L1 service tickets that exceed standard resolution capability, investigating root causes and feeding learnings back into playbooks. - Acting as a senior liaison between dealers and internal Sales, Product, and Technical teams on high-visibility, high-complexity engagements. - Owning and evolving implementation playbooks, onboarding standards, and QA frameworks used across the team. Qualifications - 4+ years of experience in software implementation, customer onboarding, or technical account management within a B2B SaaS company, including direct experience with complex, multi-stakeholder implementations. - A proven track record managing large dealer group accounts, enterprise clients, or OEM/manufacturer program implementations. - Demonstrated ability to train non-technical end users across seniority levels, from dealership owners to frontline staff. - Experience coaching, mentoring, or QA-reviewing junior colleagues in an implementation or customer-facing role. - Confidence serving as an escalation point for complex issues — diagnosing root causes and communicating clearly with high-value or frustrated customers. - Strong cross-functional coordination skills, with the ability to hold timelines across Product, Sales, Technical, and Support without direct authority. - Exceptional organization and attention to detail, with the ability to manage a portfolio of concurrent complex implementations. - A customer-first mindset paired with commercial awareness of what a delayed or poor-quality go-live costs the business. Bonus Points - Experience implementing or supporting DP360 CRM, Salesforce, HubSpot, or a comparable dealer-facing CRM in multi-user, multi-rooftop environments. - Background with OEM programs or manufacturer-driven deployments involving compliance and brand-standard requirements. - Familiarity with dealership verticals — powersports, RV, marine, equipment, automotive, or commercial truck. - Experience owning or contributing to implementation playbooks, onboarding standards, or QA frameworks. - Exposure to L1/L2 support escalation structures. - Background managing distinct implementation processes across multiple product lines in a SaaS environment. Benefits - An inclusive and supportive work environment where you can move your career forward and will have the chance to do work that has real, significant impact on the world. - The opportunity to be a part of a global group of digital marketplace businesses (CAR Group) located across Australia, Brazil, Chile and South Korea - collectively we have around 2,500 team members worldwide. - Plenty of flexible leave options and employee benefits including up to 31 days of paid time off in your first year, continuing education with access to LinkedIn Learning, a full benefits package including medical, dental & vision, 401K with company match, and wellness program.
