4How you'll be judged

The scoreboard, honestly: the hard targets, how often each one is actually looked at, and the quiet human signals that never make it onto a dashboard.

Content Upload Accuracy
The percentage of sales content pieces you upload or update that are correctly tagged, categorised, and linked in our content management system (like Seismic or Highspot).
Target · 98% accuracy

If you upload 50 new battlecards this month, we'd expect no more than one or two to have incorrect tags or be in the wrong folder.

Training Session Logistics Score
Feedback from attendees on how smoothly the administrative and logistical aspects of training sessions (scheduling, invites, room setup, materials distribution) ran.
Target · Average 4.5/5.0 on feedback surveys

After a new product training, attendees rate their experience with scheduling, materials, and communication as 'excellent' or 'very good' on average.

Report Generation Timeliness
The percentage of routine reports (e.g., training completion rates, content usage basic reports) delivered by their agreed-upon deadline.
Target · 95% on-time delivery

If the weekly training completion report is due every Monday morning, you'll have it in the manager's inbox before 9 AM, 19 out of 20 times.

Knowledge Base Update Rate
How quickly you update our internal knowledge base or FAQ documents when new information (e.g., product updates, process changes) becomes available.
Target · Updates within 24 hours of notification

When Product releases a new feature, you'll have the corresponding FAQ updated in our system by the next working day.

Proactive Support & Problem Solving
Your ability to spot potential issues (e.g., outdated content, upcoming training clashes) and flag them to your manager before they become bigger problems. It's about thinking a step ahead.
  • You'll bring ideas to weekly check-ins like 'I noticed this document hasn't been reviewed in 6 months, should I flag it?' or 'I saw two trainings are scheduled for the same time, should I try to move one?'
Stakeholder Feedback on Responsiveness
How quickly and helpfully you respond to requests from sales reps or managers for content, training info, or general support. Are you easy to work with?
  • Sales managers will mention in passing that 'Sarah is always quick to help' or 'I asked for that report and had it within the hour, brilliant!'. We'll also look at direct feedback from informal surveys.
Learning & Application of New Tools/Processes
How quickly you pick up new software or adapt to new processes within the enablement function. Are you keen to learn and able to apply what you've learned?
  • You'll be able to demonstrate new features in Salesforce or Seismic after a training session without much prompting. You'll ask smart questions that show you're really trying to understand the 'why' behind things.
Contribution to Team Efficiency
Your ideas or actions that make the Sales Enablement team's work a bit smoother or faster, even if they're small improvements.
  • You might suggest a better way to organise shared files, or create a simple template that saves everyone time on recurring tasks. It's about looking for small wins.

5Would you like it

The honest version. What people enjoy, and what grinds them down.

What people enjoy
Making a Tangible Impact (Behind the Scenes)

You'll feel good knowing that by accurately tagging content or perfectly scheduling a training, you're directly helping a sales rep close a deal or learn a new skill.

Seeing a new hire quickly ramp up and close their first deal, knowing you helped organise their onboarding materials, gives you a real buzz.

Learning & Growth

Every day is a chance to learn about sales, technology, and how a business runs. You'll enjoy mastering new software, understanding sales processes, and picking up new skills.

You'll actively seek out opportunities to learn more about Salesforce features or ask your manager about the 'why' behind a particular sales methodology.

Being Part of a Supportive Team

You'll thrive in an environment where people help each other out, share knowledge, and celebrate small wins together. You enjoy being the go-to person for logistical support.

You'll enjoy collaborating with the Sales Enablement team, helping them prepare for big presentations or ensuring their training sessions run without a hitch.

What frustrates people
  • Dealing with outdated information that needs constant updating.
  • Sales reps not reading the instructions you've carefully prepared.
  • Last-minute changes to training schedules or content requirements.
  • Sometimes feeling like a 'glorified administrator' rather than a strategic partner (though your work is crucial!).
What this role does not give you
  • Direct sales quota responsibility.
  • Leading a team or managing people.
  • Full autonomy over strategic decisions or budget allocation.
  • A quiet, predictable, and unchanging work environment.

6Who you work with

When you do this job well, our sales reps get the right information and training at the right time, making them more effective. That means quicker onboarding for new hires and better performance from the whole team. If it's not done well, reps waste time looking for information, or worse, use outdated materials, which can slow down deals and frustrate everyone. Honestly, your work helps keep the sales engine purring, even if you're not the one driving the car.

Inside the business
  • Sales Enablement Team (your immediate colleagues)
  • Sales Managers (the folks who need your support for their teams)
  • Individual Sales Reps (the people who use the content and training you help manage)
  • Marketing Team (they create a lot of the content you'll organise)
  • Sales Operations (they often need data from your systems)
Outside the business
  • Training Vendors (sometimes we use external trainers, you'll help coordinate)
  • Software Support Teams (for our enablement tools, if you hit a snag)

7What you need before you start

Not a wish list. The things you would be expected to already have.

  • Proven organisational skills, perhaps from an administrative role, project support, or even managing complex personal projects.
  • Experience using common office software (like Microsoft Office or Google Workspace) for document creation, spreadsheets, and presentations.
  • A genuine interest in sales and how businesses grow, even if you haven't worked in sales directly.
  • The ability to communicate clearly and professionally, both in writing and verbally.
  • A track record of being reliable and accountable for your tasks, even small ones.

8What to practise next

Where the job is going, and what to do about it starting this week.

Advanced CRM Reporting & Dashboarding

Beyond pulling standard reports, you'll need to learn how to build more complex reports in Salesforce, combining different data points to answer specific questions. This helps us understand the impact of our enablement efforts better.

Report Types · Custom Fields & Objects · Dashboard Components

  • This week: Identify three reports your manager uses frequently and understand their purpose.
  • This month: Try to recreate one of those reports from scratch in a sandbox environment.
  • Month 2: Experiment with adding different chart types to a dashboard.
  • Month 3: Propose a new report that could give us a useful insight into training engagement.

Quick win: Ask your manager to walk you through how they build their favourite Salesforce report. You'll pick up tips quickly.

Learning Management System (LMS) Administration

You'll move beyond just assigning training to understanding how to build more engaging learning paths, manage user groups more effectively, and troubleshoot basic issues within the LMS. This means you can take more ownership of our training delivery.

Course Authoring Tools · User Group Management · SCORM/xAPI Basics

  • This week: Explore the admin features of our LMS (Lessonly/Docebo) and see what's possible.
  • This month: Try to build a simple, single-module lesson (e.g., 'How to Submit an Expense Report').
  • Month 2: Help your manager set up a new user group and assign a specific training path to it.
  • Month 3: Research one new feature in our LMS and present its potential benefits to the team.

Quick win: Offer to take over the basic user management or course assignment tasks in the LMS. It's the best way to learn by doing.

9Staying current once you are in

What people here do to keep up
  • Attend internal sales team meetings and product updates to better understand the sales process and what reps need.
  • Shadow a sales rep for a day (or listen to their Gong calls) to get a real feel for their daily challenges.
  • Take online courses on platforms like LinkedIn Learning or Udemy about Salesforce basics, content management, or adult learning principles.
  • Actively seek feedback from your manager and colleagues on your work and areas for improvement.
  • Participate in our internal 'lunch and learn' sessions on various sales and enablement topics.

10How the AI economy is changing work like this

Before we ask anything of you, here's what we can already say about AI and work of this kind:

The new skill this role is being asked for: Basic AI Prompt Engineering for Content & Summaries

The ten Future Fluencies

Zavmo analysis

The credential is what you can do today. These are what keep you valuable.

A qualification proves you can do the job as it's defined today. These ten are what decide whether you're still the obvious person for it in five years. They're the capabilities employers are now writing into senior roles faster than people are learning them. Zavmo weaves them through whatever you study, so you come out with both: the credential and the fluency.

The highlighted ones are the Fluencies your role leans on hardest, from how Sales Enablement Coordinator is actually changing. In about two minutes, the free confidence check asks where you stand on each of the ten. That's the whole check, and it's what makes the plan yours rather than generic.

12The team that's yours

No two people are taught the same way. This is one-to-one, not one-to-many.

Zavmo is a hyper-personalised AI learning platform. Twelve virtual tutors, each with a different way of teaching, and one orchestration agent that picks the right one for the moment. So every single lesson is shaped around you, your role, and the way you learn. Not a course everyone sits through. A conversation built for you, and no one else.

…and nine more, matched to you after your first chat. Meet all twelve

13What it feels like

A conversation, not a course

Because your tutor knows your role, your projects and your last session, learning sounds like this. And it's different for every single person:

Obtaining and Analysing Sales Related InformationLevel 2

Applied to your work in Sales Enablement Coordinator

The objective of this unit is to provide learners with an understanding of how sales-related information is used to inform business decisions and how to analyse it effectively. Learners will be able to obtain relevant sales-related information and use appropriate tools and methods to analyse it, identifying trends and opportunities.

One to one, not one to many

No two people run this the same way

A course is written once and handed to everyone. This is assembled around you, and keeps changing as it learns you. Five things it reads, and what each one changes.

  1. Your actual work Every lesson is taught against a live piece of your own work, not a worked example from a textbook.
  2. What you already know The first conversation finds your starting point, so you skip what you can already do and spend the time on what you cannot.
  3. The conditions you learn under Not a learning-styles quiz. The evidence does not support those. The dimensions the research does back, read once and used to shape the plan.
  4. How far you got last time It picks up mid-thought. The tutor knows what you said, what you struggled with, and what it asked you to try.
  5. Which tutor suits the moment Twelve of them, each for a different kind of thinking. The one who walks you through a first idea is not the one who stress-tests it.

See how you learn, free. Eight questions, no sign-up. A directional taster; the diagnostic inside Zavmo goes deeper and keeps adapting.

Working with AI on the job

Working with AI

Where AI is starting to help

Let's be real, some parts of enablement support can be a bit repetitive. But what if you could offload those tasks to AI and free up your time for more interesting, impactful work? Our team is already using AI to make things smoother, and you'll get to jump straight in.

AI isn't here to replace you; it's here to give you superpowers. For a Sales Enablement Coordinator, that means less time on manual admin and more time learning, solving problems, and truly supporting our sales team. Think of AI as your personal assistant, helping you get through the grunt work faster.

Automated Content Tagging & Summaries

AI can scan new sales content (presentations, case studies) and automatically suggest relevant tags, categories, and even write a concise summary. No more manually sifting through documents to figure out where they belong or what they're about. This means content gets published faster and is easier for reps to find.

Smart Scheduling Assistant

Imagine an AI that helps you find the perfect time for training sessions across multiple calendars, sends out personalised invites, and even handles follow-up reminders. It can even suggest optimal times based on past attendance data, taking the headache out of complex scheduling.

Basic Report Generation & Insights

Instead of manually pulling data from different systems and stitching it together, AI can help you generate initial drafts of routine reports (e.g., training completion, content views) and even flag basic trends or anomalies. You'll then review and refine, rather than build from scratch.

Quick Research & FAQ Drafting

Got a question about a competitor or a new product feature? AI can quickly pull relevant information from internal and external sources, helping you draft FAQs or provide quick answers to sales reps, saving you time digging through documents.

The honest bit

You’ve started things before

Most of them were built for a room full of people who aren’t you. A cohort moves on whether or not your week allowed it, and by the third week the thing you’re behind on becomes the reason you stop opening it.

There’s no cohort here, and no timetable to fall behind. Before anything starts, Zavmo asks when you’re sharpest and how long you can realistically sit down for, then builds the sessions around those answers. A bad fortnight changes your pace. It doesn’t put you behind.

And you only pay once you start learning. Searching and planning are free, and you can cancel any time — so the cost of finding out is an afternoon, not a year.

What it costs

Less than one coaching session. Every month.

A single career-coaching hour costs more than a month of this, and it ends when the hour does. Zavmo doesn't. It's £70 a month, about £2.30 a day, for a companion that knows a Sales Enablement Coordinator, works on the job you actually do, and keeps going at your pace rather than a timetable's.

  • Searching and planning stay free. You only pay when you start learning.
  • Your credits are yours. Regulated, and they don't vanish when a subscription ends.
  • Cancel any time and billing stops. No notice period, no minimum term.

Your path, personalised

You have the map. Walking it is the part we do together.

This route runs to 13 national skill standards. That is a real journey.

Zavmo shapes a learning experience as unique as you are. It fits how you learn, your pace and the work you already do. Every step stays benchmarked to recognised national standards. That’s the plan for becoming a Sales Enablement Coordinator: personal to you, and it still counts. The first steps are free.

Independent research finds well-designed intelligent tutoring performs nearly as well as one-to-one human tutoring: VanLehn (2011), Educational Psychologist.

A private tutor in the UK averages £35–40 an hour . Zavmo is £70/month.

15Where to go from here

Other roles at Level 2

Same depth of qualification, different job. Useful if the work appeals but this particular role does not.

Other roles in Sales

Stay in the field you know and move sideways rather than up.

If you leave this industry

The skills you'll gain in sales enablement—understanding sales processes, content strategy, training, and sales tech—are highly transferable. You could move into broader learning and development roles, marketing operations, or even product management, especially for sales-focused products. It's a great foundation for a diverse career.
