Manager, Revenue Operations

Manager, Revenue Operations, Boulder, CO (Hybrid or Remote)

The Manager of Revenue Operations is the hands‑on operator responsible for building and running the day‑to‑day commercial infrastructure that powers Ascend's revenue organization.

Reporting directly to the Chief Revenue Officer, this individual contributor will build, maintain, and run the processes, systems, analytics, forecasting inputs, and operational cadence that enable Sales, Account Management, Marketing, Customer Success, and Finance to operate as a unified revenue organization.

This is a hands‑on, execution‑focused role for someone who enjoys doing the work directly rather than directing others to do it. You will build revenue infrastructure, use AI to improve your own productivity, produce the data that drives decision‑making, and personally maintain the operational discipline that supports the company's next phase of growth.

Success in this role means enabling every commercial leader to make faster, smarter decisions while improving forecast accuracy, sales productivity, customer retention, and revenue growth.

Our team combines advanced analytics, cloud‑based technology, and deep market expertise to help our clients solve complex challenges across grid reliability, power market volatility, renewable integration, infrastructure development, and energy investment strategy.
