Position Overview:
RSM Defense manages a $25M+ active pipeline of complex MSSP opportunities across its full service portfolio. Scoping, pricing, and advancing these opportunities through multiple pursuit stages requires sustained operational discipline — coordinating across service lines, tracking deal health, and surfacing the data leadership needs to make informed decisions.
The Sr Associate, Sales Operations & Pipeline Analyst supports this mission by owning the day-to-day mechanics of pipeline hygiene, deal tracking, and data operations. This role sits within the Pipeline Management function, which is responsible for deal strategy, pricing model development, go-to-market materials, internal sales roadshows, and cross-functional partner relationships with sister services (MITs, Cyber Testing, and others). The Analyst will work directly under the Pipeline Manager and serve as a critical operational partner to that function.
This is a high-visibility, high-impact role for an analytically strong, detail-oriented individual who thrives in a fast-paced environment and takes pride in the quality and accuracy of the data others rely on.
Key Responsibilities
Pipeline Operations & Deal Tracking
- Own ongoing maintenance and hygiene of the RSM Defense sales pipeline in CRM (opportunity records, stages, close dates, revenue values, and key attributes)
- Track deal progression for complex, multi-service MSSP pursuits from initial qualification through contracting, ensuring records reflect current deal status at all times
- Coordinate with field sellers, solution architects, and the Pipeline Manager to collect deal updates and validate data accuracy on a recurring cadence
- Maintain and organize deal documentation including scoping notes, pricing workbooks, proposal drafts, and pursuit correspondence
- Flag pipeline risks, stalled opportunities, and aging deals to the Pipeline Manager with supporting data
Metrics, Reporting & Leadership Decision Support
- Build and maintain recurring pipeline reporting packages for leadership, including pipeline health dashboards, win/loss trend analysis, velocity metrics, and stage conversion rates
- Design and automate data collection workflows to reduce manual effort and improve reporting frequency and consistency
- Conduct ad hoc analyses to support leadership decisions on resource allocation, pursuit prioritization, and pricing strategy
- Maintain historical pipeline data to enable period-over-period comparisons and trend identification
- Contribute to the development of RSM Defense's pipeline KPI framework, including metric definitions, data sourcing logic, and visualization standards
Scoping & Pricing Coordination
- Support the Pipeline Manager and solution architects in coordinating the scoping and pricing process for active pursuits, including scheduling, document assembly, and input tracking
- Maintain pricing model templates, input logs, and version history; alert the Pipeline Manager to inconsistencies or outdated assumptions
- Assist in producing pricing summaries and executive-facing deal economics for internal approval workflows
- Track and document changes to pricing assumptions over a deal's lifecycle to support post-close analysis and model refinement
Cross-Functional & Internal Coordination
- Serve as a coordination point with sister service teams (MITs, Cyber Testing, etc.) for deals requiring multi-service scoping, ensuring deal data is synchronized across relevant systems
- Support the Pipeline Manager in preparing materials for internal sales roadshows, QBRs, and deal reviews
- Assist in tracking action items and follow-through on pipeline management initiatives and sales programs
- Maintain internal reference materials including deal playbooks, standard pricing assumptions, and pursuit templates
