Global Head of Deal Strategy and Operations

From Fivetran’s founding until now, our mission has remained the same: to make access to data as simple and reliable as electricity. With Fivetran, customer data arrives in their warehouses, canonical and ready to query, with no engineering or maintenance required. We’re proud that more organizations continue to leverage our technology every day to become truly data-driven.

About Us

Fivetran and dbt Labs are bringing together two industry-leading companies with a shared mission: helping organizations unlock the full value of their data.

Together, we’re delivering the data infrastructure layer that helps organizations move, transform, and trust their data — from the moment data moves, through every transformation, to the context teams and AI systems rely on.

Fivetran helps organizations automate data movement across the systems, clouds, engines, and tools they rely on. dbt Labs pioneered analytics engineering, helping teams transform data into reliable, governed insights. Together, we support thousands of organizations as they build a trusted foundation for analytics, AI, and better business decisions.

As we bring our teams and technology together, we’re building on the strengths of both companies while continuing to deliver the products and experiences our customers know and trust. It’s an exciting time to join us: we’re creating a company with the scale, talent, and technology to help more organizations put their data to work with greater speed, confidence, and impact.

During this transition period, you may see references to both Fivetran and dbt Labs throughout our recruiting process as we integrate our teams, systems, and career sites.

About the Role

We are looking for a Global Head of Deal Strategy and Operations to lead the worldwide deal function for a rapidly scaling data and analytics business formed by the combination of Fivetran and dbt Labs. This is a commercial strategy role as much as an operational one with a mandate to make our deals bigger, better, and faster. The leader owns the deal structures, pricing inputs, policies, and governance that drive more revenue and higher ASP, cleaner and lower-risk terms, and real velocity across every region and segment, while de-risking the business.

This is a pivotal role at a pivotal moment. The business is integrating two commercial engines, two product portfolios, and two sets of systems into a single combined go-to-market. The role sets the strategy for how deals get structured, priced, routed, reviewed, and approved, and acts as a key commercial advisor to GTM leadership on the structures that drive growth, including ELA and commercial strategy, cross-sell, and new product launches. It leads a global team across the Americas, EMEA, and APAC and partners closely with Sales, Finance, Legal, Product, Systems, Pricing, and Partner Marketplace to keep decisions fast, consistent, and scalable.

This leader is an equal part strategist, operator, and trusted business partner. The ideal candidate moves fluidly between long-term commercial strategy and hands-on problem solving, has a proven track record scaling a deal function in a global, complex, high-growth SaaS environment, and leads teams through change with clarity and conviction.

Reports to the SVP, Strategy and Operations. This is a full-time, hybrid role based in one of our hub offices: New York, NY; Denver, CO; Oakland, CA; or Austin, TX.
