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.
Ready to level-up your career at the company leading workforce transformation in the agentic era? You’re in the right place! Agentforce is the future of AI, and you are the future of Salesforce.
As part of the Media Operations, Technology & Intelligence (MOTI) team at Salesforce, you will run paid media lead generation activation. This is a senior individual contributor role focused on practical and operational excellence—ensuring campaigns in this critical channel launch as planned, lead flows work as intended, and execution keeps pace as demand and complexity increases.
You sit at the point where execution pressures show up. When inputs are incomplete, priorities collide, or systems don't behave the way they should, you make the decisions that keep activation moving and protect delivery. As an individual contributor with high accountability, your job is about setting practical standards and making the calls that allow teams around you to rely on lead generation working consistently.
At Salesforce, we believe in harnessing the power of technology to drive business success. This is a role for someone who wants real ownership of how execution performs day to day, is comfortable being the person others turn to when things break, and takes satisfaction in making complex operational work dependable for the business.
