Lenovo
Sales & Business Development, Operations
Farnborough, UK
Why Work at Lenovo
Description and Requirements
Lenovo continues to evolve how we sell by simplifying processes, modernising tools, and reducing friction for sellers. As a part of the ISO HQ Sales Transformation and Enablement organization, this role is designed to support and extend the capacity of the Revenue Enablement Director, with a particular focus on owning and progressing CPQ (Configure, Price, Quote) related enablement and process improvements.
The Sr. Program Manager plays a critical hands‑on role in driving CPQ transformation forward — partnering across sales, sales support, and digital teams to simplify workflows, improve adoption, and ultimately free up seller time to focus on customer engagement.
With a strong focus on collaboration, customer-centricity, and practical execution, this role helps ensure that sales processes, CPQ tooling, and enablement efforts translate into real productivity gains in the field.
What You’ll Do
- Act as a key execution partner to the Revenue Enablement Director, taking ownership of defined CPQ and sales process initiatives to reduce operational load and increase delivery pace.
- Support the design, rollout, and continuous improvement of CPQ and sales processes that improve speed, consistency, and ease of use for sellers.
- Work closely with customer‑facing and sales‑supporting teams to drive adoption of common, simplified sales processes across the customer lifecycle and all routes to market.
- Build a strong understanding of Lenovo’s global commercial sales model, including regional variations, dependencies, and constraints.
- Partner with GEO and regional teams to localise CPQ and sales process enablement, ensuring solutions work in real selling environments.
- Support data‑driven measurement of CPQ and sales process initiatives, helping assess impact on seller behavior, productivity, and key outcomes.
- Provide practical input into the design and evolution of sales platforms and tools, ensuring they support seller workflows rather than add complexity.
- Help accelerate seller ramp and productivity through clear, repeatable, and scalable CPQ-enabled sales processes.
- Collaborate closely with stakeholders across Sales, GTM, Product Marketing, L&D, Operations, Digital Transformation, and IT.
- Leverage data, analytics, and direct feedback from the field to ensure ongoing improvements are grounded in seller reality.
- Support alignment across the broader enablement and sales technology ecosystem, helping reduce manual work, duplication, and process overhead.
What the Position Needs
- 7+ years of experience in sales, sales operations, business development, or sales support in a complex, matrixed organization.
- Bachelor’s degree or equivalent practical experience preferred.
- A self‑starter mindset with strong follow‑through and ownership.
- Strong interpersonal skills and the ability to influence across teams without formal authority.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain complex topics clearly..
