Sales Operations Specialist @ O.C. Tanner

About

With over 19 years at O.C. Tanner, I bring deep expertise in sales operations, strategic account support, and internal enablement. I’m passionate about helping sales teams thrive by improving productivity, streamlining processes, and removing friction from the sales cycle. In my former role as a Sales Operations Specialist, I supported global and regional sales teams with tools, training, and strategy — ensuring alignment across functions and delivering a consistently excellent experience for both sales reps and our clients. My background spans account development, program implementation, and cross-functional project management. Known for my high attention to detail, empathy, and collaborative mindset, I thrive in dynamic, remote-first environments. Whether helping launch a new recognition program or rolling out sales process improvements, I aim to build meaningful relationships and long-term impact. I'm always open to connecting and exploring how we might collaborate, whether through mentorship, networking, or future projects.
