What does a revenue operations manager do?

Before looking at the figures in our Revenue Operations Salary Report, let’s quickly recap what a revenue operations manager does.

RevOps managers are the backbone of any good revenue operations team.

They’re responsible for a whole host of RevOps activities - the extent of these varies from organization to organization, and based on the size of the team.

Revenue operations managers work on supporting sales, marketing, and customer success teams by improving processes, managing training, and auditing data. Essentially, RevOps managers manage and deliver projects designed to enhance the performance and processes of customer-facing teams across the customer journey, thus driving revenue growth.

In a small team, or while working alone, a RevOps manager might be responsible for revenue operations in an end-to-end fashion, strategizing, managing, and executing projects (and putting out the occasional fire).

In larger RevOps teams, a revenue operations manager’s role might involve taking on more of the deliverable side of the projects, while a more senior counterpart such as a VP of Revenue Operations works on strategic initiatives and wider project management.

It varies on a case-by-case basis, which is why it’s important to read the job description thoroughly and ask questions in order to understand the scope of RevOps within an organization if you’re applying for a role.
