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.
Salesforce partners with UK nonprofits to drive social impact at scale. Through our dedicated sector expertise, we help non profits and charities modernise their operations, deepen constituent relationships, and focus more resources on mission delivery rather than administration.

Partner with internal teams (Solutions Engineering, Customer Success, Industry Specialists) to deliver comprehensive solutions
Understand and articulate the value proposition of our multi cloud solutions, including Service Cloud, Nonprofit Cloud, Field Service, Experience Cloud, Data Cloud and Agentforce.
Collaborate with housing organisations to build and share configurations and best practices
Champion customer success by understanding the unique challenges facing Social Landlords today
What You Bring:
Proven track record in enterprise software sales, ideally with 5+ years in a senior or named account role
Relevant Public Sector sales experience - an understanding of the social housing sector is strongly preferred! Sales experience within Local Authorities and government bodies is a plus.
Experience selling complex, consultative solutions to C-level and senior decision-makers
Strong ability to build trusted relationships and position technology as a strategic enabler
Demonstrated success consistently meeting or exceeding quota
Excellent communication, negotiation, and presentation skills
Willingness to travel to customer locations nationwide
Why This Matters:
Your work will directly impact how landlords serve vulnerable communities, modernise aging infrastructure, and meet evolving regulatory demands. Join a team that's passionate about social impact and growing fast!

Salesforce is an equal opportunity employer and maintains a policy of non-discrimination with all employees and applicants for employment. What does that mean exactly? It means that at Salesforce, we believe in equality for all. And we believe we can lead the path to equality in part by creating a workplace that’s inclusive, and free from discrimination. Know your rights: workplace discrimination is illegal. Any employee or potential employee will be assessed on the basis of merit, competence and qualifications – without regard to race, religion, color, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, gender expression or identity, transgender status, age, disability, veteran or marital status, political viewpoint, or other classifications protected by law. This policy applies to current and prospective employees, no matter where they are in their Salesforce employment journey. It also applies to recruiting, hiring, job assignment, compensation, promotion, benefits, training, assessment of job performance, discipline, termination, and everything in between. Recruiting, hiring, and promotion decisions at Salesforce are fair and based on merit. The same goes for compensation, benefits, promotions, transfers, reduction in workforce, recall, training, and education.
