We are seeking a highly experienced Sales Operations Executive to take full end-to-end ownership of our Financial Services sales engine. This is a senior executive role for a proven operator who has successfully built, scaled, and optimised structured, high-performance sales environments within regulated industries.
This is not a regular leadership roll, it includes a systems and performance ownership mandate. You will design and embed the operating frameworks that drive consistent, predictable, and repeatable revenue delivery across multiple campaigns in a high-volume contact centre environment.
You will be accountable for operational integrity, commercial output, compliance governance, and scalable execution across a multi-layered leadership structure.
Core Accountability
Full accountability for revenue delivery across all Financial Services campaigns
Design and embed structured operating frameworks that ensure consistent, repeatable commercial performance at scale
Own the end-to-end sales operating model across multiple outbound campaigns, ensuring disciplined execution against targets
Establish and enforce performance rhythms across recruitment, onboarding, training, QA, dialler strategy, workforce planning, and conversion optimisation
Lead strict compliance governance and regulatory adherence as a non-negotiable foundation of operational execution and sustainable growth
Ensure all campaigns operate within defined regulatory frameworks, risk standards, and audit requirements
Drive performance through deep analytical insight, including conversion rates, revenue per agent, productivity, QA outcomes, and retention metrics
Translate data into decisive operational interventions and continuous performance improvement
Lead enterprise-wide continuous improvement across people, process, systems, and technology
Oversee campaign launches, stabilisation, and scale phases with operational precision
Build and enforce leadership accountability across all management layers
Engage internal and external stakeholders with strong commercial credibility and operational authority
What You Bring
8–10+ years’ senior leadership experience in Financial Services, BPO, contact centre, or high-volume regulated sales environments
Demonstrated success in building and scaling structured sales operating systems with direct revenue accountability
Strong capability in designing frameworks that drive consistency, productivity, and commercial predictability
Deep expertise in regulated environments, compliance frameworks, and governance-driven sales execution
Advanced analytical capability with a strong ability to interpret performance data and drive operational action
Proven experience leading large, multi-layered teams with strict performance accountability
Strong operational discipline with the ability to execute strategy at pace and scale
Experience in insurance, lending, or similar financial products is highly advantageous
Qualifications
Relevant qualification in Business, Operations, Finance, or Management (advantageous)
FAIS accreditation (required)
Experience as a Key Individual (preferred)
Exposure to Lean, Six Sigma, COPC, or operational excellence methodologies advantageous
Why This Role?
This is a rare opportunity to build and scale a high-performance financial services sales engine within a tightly regulated environment. You will play a critical executive role in shaping operational excellence, revenue discipline, and long-term organisational credibility.
If you are a systems-driven operator who builds structure, leads through data, and delivers commercial outcomes at scale, this role is designed for you
