This is your chance to shape the foundation of a fast-growing, high-impact part of Gusto's business as a Senior Sales Operations Analyst supporting our Expansion Sales organization. You'll build the insights and AI-powered solutions that make a large, multi-team sales organization more productive — spanning our Platform Sales, Expansion AM, and New Expansion Advisor teams. You'll sit at the intersection of data, process, and execution;

you'll turn real sales challenges into the tools, reports, automations, and workflows that move the numbers.

You'll help grow revenue from Gusto's existing customer base through upsells and cross-sells. If you thrive where analytics, problem-solving, and supporting others meet, this role offers ownership, visibility, and the chance to influence how Gusto expands its relationship with the small businesses it already serves.

The Expansion Sales Operations team partners closely with sales leadership to support three dynamic, fast-moving sales teams that contribute meaningfully to Gusto's growth. We think of ourselves as builders, problem solvers, and strategic partners; we turn uncertainty into clarity and fragmented processes into scalable, repeatable systems.

Our work spans pacing and pipeline forecasting, quotas, trigger and backlog management, process design, data integrity, account and territory administration, rules of engagement, and increasingly, AI-driven optimization. We value curiosity, open communication, and a commitment to helping our reps operate efficiently and confidently across a multi-product, multi-team motion.
