Team: Platform & Security Specialist Sales, UK & Ireland
Every enterprise wants AI agents in production, and business teams now build apps and agents alongside developers. Every new agent and app widens who and what can reach sensitive data.
Our team sells both dimensions - We help customers build on the Salesforce Platform and protect, govern and recover the data it runs on.
You will join an established UK & Ireland team of Platform & Security specialists and help shape how we go to market.
What you will sell- Build: Sell Add-on low-code and no-code tools and modules which help developers and business users build, test, and extend on the Salesforce Platform

What you will do- Carry a dedicated Platform & Security quota, team selling with the Core Account Executives (AEs) who own each account
- Build a territory plan with your Core AE partners, then find, qualify and close new business
- Lead the risk and resilience conversation with security leaders, and the value conversation with CIOs and business owners
- Grow existing customers which already run on Salesforce, so the question is what else they need to build safely and stay compliant
- Build business cases on risk, cost and time to value, and forecast accurately
- Work with Solution Engineers, security specialists and SI partners to design and deliver the right solution
