About Salesforce

Salesforce is the #1 AI CRM, where humans with agents drive customer success together. Here, ambition meets action. Tech meets trust. And innovation isn’t a buzzword — it’s a way of life. The world of work as we know it is changing and we're looking for Trailblazers who are passionate about bettering business and the world through AI, driving innovation, and keeping Salesforce's core values at the heart of it all.

  • Strong interpersonal and communication skills
  • Training in a recognised sales methodology
  • Ability to develop business cases, define service requirements, and lead strategic alliances
  • Ability to work effectively in a fast-paced, high-growth environment
  • A track record of meeting or exceeding sales targets
  • Experience in the nonprofit, NGO, or public sector market, or equivalent B2B technology sales experience (approximately 3+ years)
