About the role
Location: Hyderabad (WFO)Reports to: COO
Role OverviewWe are hiring a Head of Revenue Operations to architect and scale an automation-first revenue engine that powers NxtWave’s next phase of growth.
This is a systems design mandate and not just a reporting function.
You will own the complete lead-to-enrollment infrastructure across Marketing, Sales, and Business. Your focus will be improving conversion, eliminating inefficiencies, redesigning CRM architecture, and building a scalable operating system that enables revenue growth without proportional cost expansion.
You must think in funnel economics, system leverage, and long-term scalability and not just process execution.
MissionDesign and scale a fully integrated revenue infrastructure that:
-
Improves lead-to-enrollment conversion
-
Reduces operational inefficiencies and cost per lead
-
Minimizes manual dependencies through automation
-
Enables real-time, data-driven decision making
-
Scales revenue sustainably
-
Improve end-to-end lead lifecycle performance
-
Strengthen MQL → SQL → Enrollment transitions
-
Reduce response delays and funnel leakage
-
Standardize lifecycle definitions across Marketing and Sales
-
