Sales Operations Manager (CRM Owner) at SmartDev1

SmartDev is transitioning from a traditional software outsourcing model to an AI‑enabled, solution‑driven technology partner across APAC, the Middle East, and Europe. To support this shift, sales must operate based on accurate data, disciplined processes, and factual pipeline visibility. Although SmartDev already uses HubSpot, it is not yet functioning as a true operating system for sales. This role exists to take ownership of HubSpot operations, ensuring it reflects sales reality and supports reliable reporting and decision-making. The Sales Operations Specialist is responsible for controlling how sales actually operate through CRM governance, process enforcement, and analytical insight. This role goes beyond managing a tool or producing reports—it requires enforcing CRM discipline across BDMs, SDRs, and Account Managers, challenging incorrect or misleading data, and ensuring pipeline accuracy. The role demands strong ownership, analytical thinking, and the confidence to question inconsistencies and drive accountability.
