**** 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.
As the Sr. Director of Enterprise Architecture & Org Transformation, you will be the architect of our future-state operating models. This is not a role for a traditional headcount manager. It is a strategic position designed for both a visionary and an operator who views a global organization as a complex, interconnected system. You will lead a multidisciplinary team including Capacity Planning, Location Strategy, Redesign, and Redeployment to ensure our workforce is structured for maximum agility, cost-efficiency, and AI-readiness.
You will focus on the How and Where of our global work, defining the macro-level blueprints that Business Units then execute against.### ##
** Key Responsibilities**
* ** Visionary Org Design:
** Design large-scale enterprise models, moving beyond simple boxes and lines to define modern operating models that leverage AI and automation.
* ** Enterprise Architecture:
** Own the Structural Health of the company, setting the global standards for spans, layers (8x9), and role density to eliminate shadow orgs and role sprawl.
* ** Value Chain Mapping:
** Conduct end-to-end mapping across major functions to identify cross-functional alignment opportunities and ensure the right roles are in the right places.
* ** Macro Capacity & Headcount Strategy:
** Own the enterprise-wide workforce planning cycle for both annual and quarterly periods. Instead of managing BU-specific spreadsheets, you will set the top-down constraints for capacity, budget, and headcount that keep the enterprise balanced.
* ** Location & Geo Strategy:
** Define the global hub-and-spoke strategy, optimizing for labor economics, talent supply, and geopolitical risk.
* ** Workforce Segmentation:
** Establish the framework for Critical vs. Commodity roles, determining our long-term build, buy, borrow, or bot strategy.
* ** Redeployment Governance:
** Oversee the framework for talent mobility and rebalancing, ensuring we can shift capacity dynamically as business priorities evolve.##
** Skills & Qualifications**
* ** Systems Thinking:
** The ability to see the Big Picture and understand how a change in location strategy impacts capacity planning and org health.
* ** Strategic Foresight:
** Experience translating business strategy, such as a pivot to AI-first, into a future-state organizational architecture.
* ** Financial & Analytical Acumen:
** Deep comfort with ROI logic, cost-to-serve models, and workforce analytics tools like Workforce Blueprint or Org Vue.
* ** Executive Influence:
** The ability to challenge the C-suite on structural inefficiency and build compelling business cases for radical change.
* *
* Experience:
** 12+ years in Workforce Planning, Org Design, or Management Consulting, with a proven track record of leading enterprise-wide transformations.### ##
** Your Team
** You will oversee a specialized group of leads including:
* ** Capacity Planning Leads:
** Managing the enterprise modeling and 4R framework.
* ** Location & Geo Lead:
** Driving hub strategy and labor market intelligence.
* ** Enterprise Org Redesign Lead:
** Executing on structural health and simplification.
* ** Redeployment Specialists:
** Scaling talent rebalancing and AI-enabled matching.
Unleash Your Potential When you join Salesforce, you’ll be limitless in all areas of your life. Our benefits and resources support you to find balance and
