Hey, you look like you might be our new  Manager, Sales Planning & Compensation Strategy

Sales & Merchant Operations

Full-time

About the Global Merchant Team

On the Global Merchant team, our mission is to have best-in class restaurant and store selection for consumers and build products and services for our merchants to grow their businesses profitably on Wolt. In doing so, we partner up closely with the commercial teams in our +28 countries.

 

Our five global subteams focus on distinct areas of the merchant lifecycle and experience but also our internal efficiency related to reaching our mission:

  • The Merchant S&O (Strategy & Operations) team is responsible for our merchant and selection strategy, merchant experience, planning and performance tracking, operating model design as well as commercial go-to-market approaches

  • The Sales S&O team owns and develops the goaling, sales operations processes, tools and enablement programs to support and improve the productivity of our local pre- and post-sales teams

  • The Merchant Operations subteam focuses on smooth execution of core processes such as onboarding, in-store flows, self-service tooling and integrations - this in a very tight collaboration with our product teams

  • The Enterprise team works directly with global current and prospective merchant partners to unlock and grow our joint business

  • The B2B subteam owns and develops some of our newer service offerings for merchants - such as logistics as a service (Drive)

About the Role

Wolt is looking for a strong individual contributor within Sales Strategy - Sales Planning & Compensation, to define our sales incentive strategy and planning roadmap–enabling Wolt to hit business goals. This role will be based in Helsinki or Berlin.

In this role within the Sales Strategy and Planning team, you will combine strategic planning and analysis with operational execution.

Responsibilities will range from strategic (designing incentives aligned to the company's goals and strategy, integrating new products into sales GTM strategy and building consensus among sales leadership) to operational/tactical (designing compensation plans, driving plan implementation and ensuring key metrics can be communicated, tracked and commissions calculated). You will ultimately design and administer a sales incentive program for our sales and account management teams, globally in the 28 Wolt markets–partnering with teams across analytics, compensation & rewards, product, and sales. 
 

You will bring a strategic mindset and deliver critical insights using analytical and technical support to the successful administration of sales incentive programs globally while proactively building partnerships, promoting open dialogue and creative insights expertise to issues in real time.

What you will be doing
