Strategic Deal Manager

With 1,000 intelligence professionals, over $300M in sales, and serving over 1,900 clients worldwide, Recorded Future is the world’s most advanced, and largest, intelligence company!

About the Role

We're hiring a Strategic Deal Manager to help shape and scale how we structure, position, and inspect complex deals. As one of the first hires focused on building out our Deal Desk capabilities, you’ll be instrumental in improving win rates and increasing deal size through creating scalable processes and systems, refining deal quality, partnering cross-functionally, and direct client engagement.

You’ll sit at the intersection of Sales, Finance, Legal, and Order Management, acting as a trusted partner to reps while enforcing pricing consistency and approval discipline. Your focus will be on both utility (making deals happen) and structure (making deals scalable). This is a role for someone who understands the balance between qualitative deal experience and quantitative business rigor.

Key Responsibilities

Deal Structuring & Strategy

• Guide reps on how to position pricing and structure deals across various deal events including new business, renewals, and off cycle contract adjustments.


• Inspect opportunities for structure, terms, and compliance with internal policies.


• Partner in negotiations with reps and clients, providing strategic pricing input and contract recommendations.


• Problem-solve complex deal scenarios to create win-win outcomes for the customer and Recorded Future.

Pricing Operations & Enablement

• Operationalize and support new pricing and deal initiatives, including training reps on pricing rules, discounting, and renewal uplift standards.


• Create scalable documentation, tools, and guardrails to drive pricing discipline and deal quality.


• Ensure deals flow correctly from quote to order—spotting gaps and inefficiencies in the process.


• Surface insights from deal data to inform GTM strategy and deal management.

Systemize & Scale Deal Inspection

• Set up processes and approval chains to reduce friction and ensure alignment with internal controls.


• Work closely with systems teams to evolve CPQ tools and Salesforce workflows.


• Collaborate with Order Management to ensure clean bookings, particularly on non-standard deals or complex structures.


• Audit deals for completeness, compliance, and alignment with internal policies.

What You Bring

Must-Haves:

• 5+ years of experience in Deal Desk, Sales Operations, or GTM Strategy at a B2B SaaS company.


• Customer-facing experience in proposal delivery or deal negotiation.


• Deep understanding of SaaS pricing models, deal mechanics, and enterprise sales motions.


• Strong experience in Salesforce and CPQ systems (Salesforce CPQ preferred).


• Analytical mindset with strong attention to detail and ability to interpret complex deal data.


• Proven ability to build scalable processes while staying agile and pragmatic.

Nice-to-Haves:

• Experience standing up a Deal Desk function or transforming immature deal operations.


• Background in cybersecurity or other regulated SaaS environments.


• Experience with renewal pricing strategy and uplift mechanics.


• Prior experience in Finance or Legal operations related to contracting or deal approvals.

What Success Looks Like

• Complex deals are structured faster, with better win rates and consistent pricing rules.


• Sales reps are empowered, not just supported—because processes and training make doing the right thing easy.


• Pricing model updates are rolled out cleanly and absorbed across teams.


• The Deal Desk function evolves into a strategic asset that drives top-line efficiency.
