Advice for Sales Ops

Looking for some advice here on pivoting from Sales Operations, bit of background:

About a year as a contractor at a SaaS company where I didn’t have the Sales Ops title but was doing a lot of Sales Ops work as a generalist, forecasting, pipeline, admin, learned a lot and grateful for the experience.

Then started in a traditional hardware manufacturing company as a Sales Operations Analyst.

Def been a big change in the environment so far, things are a lot slower, monotonous, routine, but love the people and culture.

I want to keep learning new things and expand my breadth of knowledge, and hearing the team talk about Program Management got me really interested in it.

So am wondering:

  1. Has anyone here pivoted to Program Management or is from PgM but pivoted to SalesOps and how did you go about it?

  2. How easy is the transition or pivot to other analyst titles, like Business Ops, Product Ops, or RevOps, internally or externally?

  3. Any advice in general in Sales Operations is appreciated as I’m still fairly new to this function thanks!
