GTM Strategy & Operations Lead (Legal & Field Ops)

Job description

At Affirm, we exist for the moments that matter—giving people a clear, predictable way to pay over time, with no hidden fees, no surprises, and no tradeoffs on what matters most. **About the Revenue team** The Revenue team drives Affirm's top-line growth through strategic partnerships, growth initiatives, and go-to-market execution. We acquire, retain, and expand merchant relationships across eCommerce, in-store, telesales, and the Affirm app. The team leads onboarding, relationship management, and performance optimization to help partners succeed. We deliver value-added solutions, drive adoption, and support long-term business growth by connecting merchants and consumers through Affirm's products. **About the Role** GTM Strategy & Operations takes product and pricing initiatives and creates commercially viable, operationally sound go-to-market motions. We partner with Product, Product Marketing, Legal, Rev Ops, and Pricing to design rollout groups, coordinate implementation, and equip the field — CSMs, AEs, and TAMs — with the processes they need to create world-class go-to-market. As an individual contributor, the Lead owns the go-to-market operations for a specific product line or segment end to end. You're handed the objective and you decide how to execute: building the target lists, assigning appropriate account actions, segmenting customers by contractual and pricing eligibility, and tracking adoption. You turn high-level product and pricing inputs into a plan a rep can actually execute. **What You'll Do** - Own go-to-market operations for field teams executing on strategic initiatives — segmenting potential customers and managing the legal and pricing operations. - Turn inputs from cross-functional stakeholders like Product, Legal, Risk, and Pricing into an executable process. - Manage Affirm’s first-in-class AI contract dashboard for field teams to understand legal and pricing eligibility for product initiatives. - Build and maintain the tools and playbooks the field needs for strategic initiatives, including contract renewal planning, pricing standardization, and new product GTM. - Fluently navigate different perspectives on the same launch — the exec "why it matters," the customer value proposition, and the field-facing analysis. - Sit close to the field, and turn what you hear into recommendations for cross-functional teams. - Analyze performance data to find where a launch is stalling, and flag risks early. **What We Look For** - 6+ years of experience in business operations, revenue or sales operations, ideally in FinTech, SaaS, or another high-growth environment. - A track record of owning a go-to-market motion or customer-facing initiative end to end, rollout through adoption, within a defined scope. - You've been handed vague "go make this work" instructions, then built a solution that resonated with stakeholders and customers. - Experience working cross-functionally with Product, PMM, Client Success, Sales, Analytics, Legal, or Pricing. - Comfort translating product and pricing strategy into practical, field-ready execution. - Solid analytical instincts: you use adoption and performance data to decide what to do next, not just to report what happened. - Clear, action-oriented writing and speaking. - You do your best work in ambiguity and move fast without waiting to be told the approach. - Familiarity with merchant, payments, or SaaS sales motions is a must-have. - Experience using SQL to query, manipulate, and analyze data to support business insights and decision-making. - Demonstrated experience leveraging AI tools to improve workflows, automate processes, and drive efficiency, with an understanding of how to apply and validate AI-generated outputs.
