Role
Who you are
- Exceptional leadership and people instincts — you build teams people want to be on. You develop talent, set a high bar, and create the conditions for a team to do its best work
- AI fluency and a builder's mindset — you are actively using AI tools in your own work today and have a clear point of view on how they change what's possible in RevOps. You don't wait to be asked to modernize — you lead it
- Proven GTM Operations leadership at scale — you have led a RevOps or GTM Strategy & Operations team of 25+ at a 500+ person company, with late-stage experience (Series D/E or post-IPO) in the last five years
- Deep quantitative instincts — you are highly analytical, own the numbers, challenge assumptions, and hold teams accountable to metrics that matter
- Executive presence and cross-functional influence — you interface directly with C-Suite, challenge up when needed, align across functions, and earn credibility through clarity and follow-through
- Bias for action — you raise the bar, move with urgency, stay resilient through ambiguity, and take ownership to deliver meaningful outcomes
What the job involves
- Reporting into the COO, the VP of Revenue Operations is a critical driver of Checkr's growth strategy. This leader owns the full GTM engine — spanning enterprise, commercial, channel, and self-serve — and is accountable for the systems, frameworks, and operational discipline Checkr needs to scale
- This is a builder's role. The right person is an exceptional people leader who can attract, develop, and inspire a high-performing team — and who is actively shaping how that team works through AI
- You will partner closely with Sales, Marketing, Customer Success, and Partnerships and collaborate cross-functionally with Product, Engineering, Finance, and Operations to deliver on our go-to-market strategy
- Lead and scale a high-performing Revenue Operations organization — owning Analytics, Enablement, and GTM Systems, and serving as a strategic partner to GTM leaders across new logo acquisition and existing customer management
- Build and lead an AI-forward team — establish an AI-first operating standard for RevOps at Checkr, where the team leads with AI to work faster, think bigger, and focus on what drives growth
- Drive growth across all GTM segments — understand the business deeply and identify levers to accelerate performance across new logo acquisition and existing customer management
- Own business planning, forecasting, and analytics — establish a rigorous analytical framework and cadence that gives the Revenue organization visibility, accountability, and confidence in its performance
- Own Enablement strategy and execution — equip GTM teams with the tools, training, and playbooks they need to perform at their best, and ensure that every new initiative lands effectively in the field
- Design the future state — define the roadmap for what Checkr needs to invest in now to support growth in the years ahead, and drive execution against the initiatives that will unlock that scale
- Partner with C-Suite and EStaff — shape go-to-market strategy, align on scaling priorities, and influence resource and investment decisions across the organization
Our take
Checkr addresses the unpleasant and time consuming process of background checks so that companies using on-demand employees can make safer, more informed hiring decisions in less time. Background checks are a critical part of the hiring process, and CEO Daniel Yannisse noticed that they were painfully slow, resulting in loss of work for candidates and productivity downturns for employers.
Before Checkr entered the market in 2014 with its innovative AI technology and a solid $50m in venture capital funding, companies were waiting upwards of two weeks for their checks. Checkr substantially reduces this time frame and has grown to receive a $5 billion valuation.
Checkr has accelerated growth by making several highly advantageous acquisitions of competitor companies, GoodHire and Inflection. As the world of work embraces diversity and inclusion, the company announced an end-to-end service for candidates wishing to expunge their criminal records, furthering the company’s ‘fair chance’ mission and clearing 1000s of candidates for free since 2021. New products launched at the end of 2023 include Checkr Pay (providing access to payment right after a shift) and Checkr Onboard (unified onboarding processes), exemplifying how Checkr is keeping pace with a rapidly changing, flexible, and mobile-first workforce.
