  • Represent Salesforce at industry events, roundtables, and stakeholder engagements.

  • Demonstrated ability to drive cross-functional collaboration with solution engineers, product teams, customer success, and partners.
  • Strong business acumen and ability to engage stakeholders across IT, operations, and executive levels.
  • A collaborative, high-integrity approach to sales with a team-driven mindset.
