About the Role:

Motive’s Enablement Team plays a critical role in the strategic implementation of key business initiatives and driving meaningful business impact across our Revenue organizations (Sales, Sales Development, Sales Engineering, Customer Success). Every team member has a crucial part in helping us fulfill our mission: To ensure that new and existing frontline team members are equipped with the information and skills they need to win in their roles. Reporting to the Director of Enablement, the Onboarding Program Manager will own the onboarding experience of the dozens of Revenue team members that join our ranks every month, across all roles. The chosen candidate will take their global team of 5 to even greater heights. The team will create and refine onboarding to create engaging learning experiences that not only provide learners with the information they need to succeed, but lays the foundational habits that will make them successful revenue drivers for the rest of their professional careers. 

What You'll Do:

• Analyze the existing onboarding program by auditing existing courses, shadowing top performers, and interviewing execs, sales leaders and Enablement Business Partners; define a plan to implement a significantly improved and rigorous onboarding experience.
• Expertly improve the existing onboarding programs and build tracks for new roles.
• Align our onboarding program to revenue generating activities, getting reps to these activities quickly and ensuring they’re set up to hit early ramp benchmarks.
• Build accountability mechanisms (e.g. sign-off checklists, certs, etc.) and reporting to ensure new reps (and their hiring managers) are rigorous during onboarding and setting themselves up for success.
• Increase engagement by introducing new approaches and practices (i.e. video, virtual, gamification solutions)
• Set, measure and report on the business impact of onboarding. In particular, drive reduction of ramp time and reduced attrition during early tenure.
• Customize the Onboarding experience to the various roles and segments we support (AE, SDR, SE, etc.)
• Coach and guide a team of onboarding specialists (faciliators/coordinators)
• Design Onboarding Programs methodically, ensuring sustainability and guaranteeing that when changes are made at the company, onboarding is updated within a pre-defined SLA
• Actively engage third-parties in the onboarding process. Onboarding is a team sport and we need someone who can influence and bring in sales managers, top performers, SMEs, leadership, etc. in a way that enhances the learner experience and also proves value to these third parties.

• 5+ years of Sales Enablement, Performance Consulting or Learning and Facilitation
