Our sellers are key to how customers and partners understand Microsoft’s products and strategies, but how do we align the conversations of thousands of sellers with each other and with the company’s strategy? Making sure that the sellers are having the right conversations at the right time is key to the company’s success, and the Sales Design & Incentives team connects strategy to seller behavior in one of the most important ways: by aligning company aspirations with seller incentives.
Sales Design & Incentives (SDI) is the team at Microsoft that is responsible for the design, implementation and operations related to the sales and incentive plans across all of Microsoft, impacting 40K+ employees. Our vision is to embody best-in-class, design-to-deployment incentive compensation that inspires sellers to maximize their success and rewards and enables sustainable growth, share, and customer success.
The Sales Compensation Implementation Manager is the connective tissue of SDI plan execution—bringing deep understanding of incentive compensation processes and tools to enable seamless cross‑functional collaboration and flawless plan implementation. You will ensure first‑mile execution excellence by orchestrating the end-to-end implementation of approved incentive plans and programs, using the benefits of AI Agents.
