This is an enterprise-facing role where you will act as a trusted advisor to senior executives, guiding customers through digital transformation and industry disruption while communicating Salesforce's differentiated value.

  • Collaborate with internal teams including Solution Engineers, Industry Leads, and Customer Success to deliver tailored, value-based solutions that address key industry challenges.

  • Meet and exceed pipeline and revenue targets, contributing to the growth of the Automotive and Aerospace and Defence vertical.


You're a Great Fit If...

  • You have extensive experience selling enterprise software at scale, managing large and complex deal cycles.

  • You understand customer business challenges and can clearly explain the value of Salesforce's solutions to address them.

  • You are a self-starter who is driven and motivated, with a track record of achieving significant revenue targets.

  • You are experienced working with partners, advisory firms, and cross-functional teams to drive results in fast-paced environments.


Even Better If...
