Job Summary
Equinix is seeking an AMER Sales Strategy & Operations Manager to own the forecasting infrastructure, data analytics, and operational reporting that power the region's revenue decisions. In this high-visibility role, you will sit at the intersection of data, process, and strategy — translating complex pipeline and performance signals into clear, executive-ready narratives that help AMER Sales Leaders act faster and more confidently. You will be responsible for driving Clari and Salesforce excellence, enforcing the E.D.G.E. methodology, and partnering directly with Business Partners and regional Sales Leaders to build a more predictable, insight-driven revenue engine.
Responsibilities
Forecasting & Reporting:
- Support the AMER regional forecast end-to-end: consolidate territory inputs into a single regional view, ensuring accuracy, consistency, and clear commentary on key drivers, risks, and opportunities by product and Data Center
- Develop and maintain executive-ready materials for leadership reviews, forecast discussions, planning cycles, and strategic updates
- Set and enforce forecasting governance across the AMER SalesOps team: methodologies, assumptions, data standards, and review cadence
- Constructively challenge territory leaders' forecasts — identifying assumption gaps, outliers, and areas requiring further explanation
- Drive continuous improvement in forecast accuracy, comparability, and predictability through better process, analytics, and operating discipline
- Support pipeline hygiene initiatives, ensuring SFDC data quality underpins reliable forecast outputs
Data Analytics:
- Design, build, and maintain Salesforce reports and dashboards that give AMER Sales Leaders and Business Partners self-serve visibility into pipeline, performance, and forecast trends
- Enable Sales on available dashboard functionality — ensuring leaders and reps know how to use the tools built for them, reducing dependency on the SalesOps team for routine lookups
- Monitor AMER performance metrics continuously; identify trends, risks, and opportunities across the revenue base and translate them into clear, actionable insights with direct revenue implications
- Present revenue performance and outlook to senior leadership with clarity, confidence, and a consistent point of view
Business Partner & Stakeholder Management:
- Act as a trusted advisor to AMER Business Partners and Sales Leaders on all elements of forecasting, reporting, and pipeline management — bringing proactive insight, not just reactive support
- Engage with Territory and Regional senior leadership on key strategic initiatives and programs; represent the AMER region with credibility and preparation
- Collaborate cross-functionally to ensure all CRO teams are aligned — including Marketing, Customer Success, Channel, Revenue Operations, Compensation, and Enablement
- Consult on the execution of the AMER E.D.G.E. Methodology and help operationalize at the territory level, working directly with Business Partners to embed the framework into daily operating rhythms
Strategic Initiatives:
- Represent the AMER region in cross-functional programs and initiatives related to pipeline generation, funnel hygiene, and revenue operations effectiveness
- Lead regional cross-functional projects targeted at improving forecast accuracy, pipeline management, and sales productivity — from problem definition through implementation and measurement
- Identify and implement process improvements that enhance reporting efficiency and operational clarity; build interim reporting solutions where permanent infrastructure is not yet in place
- Evaluate program effectiveness through data analysis; present findings and recommended next steps to leadership with a clear point of view on impact and ROI
Qualifications
- 5+ years of experience in sales operations, revenue operations, or a high-performance sales environment — with demonstrated ownership of forecasting and reporting at scale
- Advanced Salesforce.com proficiency: ability to independently build reports and dashboards, manage report types, and troubleshoot data quality issues without admin support
- Advanced Clari proficiency: hands-on experience with dashboard configuration, forecast logic, and driving adoption of forecasting methodology across a sales organization
- Deep expertise in revenue forecasting, pipeline management, scenario planning, and executive reporting — including experience governing a forecast process end-to-end
- Strong analytical skills with hands-on experience in data analysis and sales performance metrics; proficiency in Excel/Google Sheets modeling; SQL or BI tools (e.g. Tableau, Looker) a plus
- Excellent communication and storytelling skills: ability to turn complex pipeline and performance data into concise, executive-ready narratives with a clear recommendation
- Strong stakeholder management and influencing skills — comfortable constructively challenging assumptions and driving accountability with Sales Leaders and senior management

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Green Card Sponsorship in Sales And Business Development
Document your degree equivalency early
If your business or commerce degree is from outside the U.S., get a credential evaluation before applying. USCIS requires proof your foreign degree is equivalent to a U.S. bachelor's, and gaps here can delay PERM certification by months.
Target employers with PERM filing history
Search the DOL's OFLC Wage Search to identify companies that have filed PERM applications for sales and business development roles. Employers already in the PERM pipeline understand the process and are far less likely to withdraw sponsorship mid-application.
Clarify EB-2 versus EB-3 eligibility before accepting an offer
Sales roles with managerial responsibility or specialized technical sales backgrounds can qualify under EB-2. Confirm the job description meets advanced-degree requirements before signing, because reclassifying the petition later restarts the priority date clock.
Use Migrate Mate to find sponsoring employers
Search Migrate Mate to filter sales and business development roles by employers actively sponsoring green cards. You can compare sponsorship history and role requirements, which cuts the guesswork out of identifying PERM-ready hiring companies.
Understand how PERM advertising timelines affect your start date
PERM requires your employer to run DOL-mandated recruitment for at least 30 days before filing. Factor this into your negotiation, since your green card petition cannot be submitted until that window closes, regardless of how quickly both sides want to move.
Verify the job description matches O*NET occupation standards
DOL evaluates PERM applications against O*NET occupation profiles for sales and business development roles. If your job duties or stated requirements deviate significantly from the O*NET profile, expect an audit that can add six to twelve months to the process.
Green Card Sales And Business Development: Frequently Asked Questions
Do sales and business development roles commonly qualify for EB-2 or EB-3 sponsorship?
Both categories apply depending on the role. EB-3 covers positions requiring at least a bachelor's degree, which covers most sales and business development titles. EB-2 applies when the role specifically requires an advanced degree or your employer can demonstrate the position warrants a professional with elevated credentials. Your job offer letter and PERM description drive which category fits.
How is green card sponsorship through PERM different from H-1B sponsorship for sales roles?
PERM sponsorship leads to permanent residency rather than a temporary visa, and there is no annual lottery at the EB-3 level for most countries. The tradeoff is timeline: PERM labor certification alone typically takes six to twelve months before USCIS even receives the I-140 petition. H-1B visa is faster to obtain but expires, while a green card, once approved, has no renewal requirement.
Can a company sponsor a green card for a sales role if it already employs me on an H-1B?
Yes, and many employers prefer this path because you can continue working in your H-1B status while the PERM process runs in parallel. Once your I-140 is approved and you have an approved priority date, you can extend H-1B status in three-year increments under AC21 portability rules while waiting for your green card to become current.
How do I find employers actively sponsoring green cards for sales and business development positions?
Migrate Mate lets you search sales and business development roles specifically filtered by employers with active green card sponsorship history. This removes the need to cold-apply and ask about sponsorship after the fact, which most candidates find wastes significant time during the job search process.
What happens to my green card petition if I change employers during the PERM process?
If you change employers before your I-140 is approved, the PERM application is generally abandoned and you restart from scratch with the new employer. After your I-140 is approved and your priority date has been pending for at least 180 days, AC21 portability allows you to move to a same or similar role without losing your place in the queue, provided USCIS accepts the portability claim.
