• Lead Business Transformation: Partner cross-functionally with product, marketing, sales ops, and analytics to evolve the Flex partner journey and support Zillow’s shift to a fully integrated transaction model.

• Upskill the Organization: Establish ongoing training, enablement, and leadership development frameworks to elevate sales effectiveness, particularly around consultative, data-driven selling and negotiation.
