About Salesforce

We’re Salesforce, the Customer Company, inspiring the future of business with AI+ Data +CRM. Leading with our core values, we help companies across every industry blaze new trails and connect with customers in a whole new way. And, we empower you to be a Trailblazer, too — driving your performance and career growth, charting new paths, and improving the state of the world. If you believe in business as the greatest platform for change and in companies doing well and doing good – you’ve come to the right place.

Our Small to Medium Business team is part of our wider Growth Business, focusing on working with exciting growth organizations. You will have the opportunity to work in a fast paced team with varied RCG customers and personalized training and career opportunities.

Retail & Consumer Goods

Salesforce for Retail and Consumer Goods vertical, allows our customers to support integral B2B and B2C processes on the world’s #1 CRM. Using our platform, our customers are able to use powerful insights to better support field reps, partners, and customers, ultimately creating a smarter, and seamless customer experience to win brand loyalty and earn new business.

This team is incredibly tight knit; we celebrate our differences and wins and learn from losses. You’re joining our team, and we’re all working towards the same goals. You will have the opportunity to work in a fast paced team with personalized training and career opportunities.

This role is the perfect opportunity to immerse yourself in all things Salesforce. You will get exposure to a range of internal teams and business units, so your overall knowledge of how we work and operate will grow very quickly.

Our RCG team is part of our wider sales team, focusing on selling into the RCG industry. The RCG space is particularly exciting at the moment as there are multiple industry disruptors entering the market. The barrier for entry is high, and the customers you will work with are highly intelligent and self motivated.

RCG is a high performing area of our business, and we accredit this to the leadership: They have been in your shoes, and they know how to motivate and champion their teams. We offer formal and informal training for all people coming into this role, and this will be entirely focused around your strengths and goals. We encourage 360 degree feedback, so you have the opportunity to take your own initiative and blaze your own trail.
