We are seeking a dedicated and experienced Sr. Program Manager to join the Sales Operations team.

How We Work:
We balance hard work and innovation through purpose driven, in-person collaboration. This opportunity is a 100% onsite role out of our Phoenix, Arizona location.
You Will:
- Lead Sales Operations projects from intake through requirements, solution design, UAT, stakeholder alignment, deployment, and post-launch communication.
- Own daily triage of ad hoc Salesforce, CFS, and sales operations system issues by monitoring production behavior, investigating root causes, creating solution tickets, partnering with IT, and driving timely releases.
- Identify and eliminate manual workflows, inefficiencies, and process gaps across Transaction Operations, Order Operations, and Title Operations.
- Develop and maintain analytics, reporting, dashboards, and operating mechanisms that provide visibility into open tickets, completed work, production issues, UAT status, and project progress.
- Maintain vehicle sales fee, discount, and incentive databases; execute monthly and ad hoc incentive updates; validate incentive accuracy across systems; and troubleshoot production incentive issues.
- Coordinate cross-functional implementation of new fees, discounts, incentives, and sales programs, ensuring system readiness and accurate launch execution.
- Lead User Acceptance Testing for Sales Operations, including test script creation, validation, release sign-off, defect follow-up, and stakeholder communication.

- Review and triage contract discrepancies and contract modification requests, including transportation fee removal, tax validation, and other fee adjustments.
- Maintain and enhance knowledge bases, SOPs, policy documentation, personnel maps, and process documentation for Transaction Operations and related Sales Operations workflows.
- Provide operational support for ad hoc business initiatives, intake requests, executive updates, and cross-functional project communications.
- Identify discrepancies, bottlenecks, and control gaps, then recommend process, system, or reporting improvements to increase operational efficiency and reduce downstream customer or field impact.
- Provide clear project status updates to internal and external stakeholders, including risks, blockers, decisions needed, and launch readiness.

You Bring:
