The Team

Our GTM Enablement team plays a critical role in helping Datadog’s Sales and Customer Success teams succeed by equipping them with the right skills, knowledge, and tools at the right time. We partner closely with teams across Sales, Customer Success, Product Marketing, Strategy & Operations and more to ensure enablement programs translate into real performance in the field.

The Program Management team within Sales Enablement is a group of interdisciplinary thinkers leveraging diverse business backgrounds in engineering, education, management consulting, business operations (and more!) to define, manage and measure Datadog’s global go to market motion. We solve complex, systemic challenges that impact go-to-market effectiveness by diagnosing root causes—whether behavioral, skills-based, or structural—and shaping the strategic solutions that resolve them.

Role Summary: As Manager, Sales Enablement Program Management – Sales Productivity, you will lead a team of Program Managers responsible for driving large-scale, cross-functional behavior change initiatives that transform how our Go-to-Market (GTM) teams operate at a systems level. As a member of the Sales Enablement Leadership Team, you will help shape the strategic direction of our enablement function while delivering high-impact programs that connect systems, processes, tools, and behaviors to unlock productivity at scale. This role requires a leader who moves quickly, thinks creatively and strategically, and analyzes complex challenges from multiple dimensions. Someone who understands how multiple, complex variables in a growing GTM org relate to each other in order to affect change, and who knows how to analyze hard data just as well as what's going on on the ground. Having experience directly in sales enablement isn’t necessary - we’re looking for someone with experience serving as both visionary and operator—building a clear perspective on how everything connects while inspiring meaningful behavior change across the organization.

At Datadog, we value our in-office culture - the relationships and collaboration it builds and the creativity it brings to the table. We operate as a hybrid workplace to ensure our Datadogs can create a work-life harmony that best fits them.
