About the Role
The Sales Strategy & Operations team is a high-performance team chartered with helping senior executives drive the business forward. This role sits at the intersection of strategic planning, operational rigor, and data-driven insight supporting the Account Success leadership for EMEA Central.
You will partner closely with Senior Account Success leaders to own the business operational model, track performance against targets, and drive forward-looking planning across Go-to-Market strategy and cross-functional strategic initiatives.

We view this role as the start of a rewarding and highly flexible career at Salesforce — a key talent pool to nurture and develop into more senior positions within the organisation.
Responsibilities

Leverage AI in the flow of work — actively use AI tools, and AI-assisted analytics platforms (e.g. Slack, Claude or Gemini) to accelerate business analysis, automate recurring reporting, and surface insights faster; maintain a working understanding of responsible AI practices and contribute to the team's AI fluency by experimenting with emerging tools and sharing learnings across the COO Office
Support GTM planning processes and longer-term cross-functional strategic initiatives in partnership with Sales Strategy, Account Success Strategy & Programs, and Business Intelligence teams
Evaluate ongoing business performance against targets, identifying areas of growth, risk, and opportunity (e.g. consumption trends, Signature Success Plan adoption, AOV risks, product adoption impact)
Collaborate cross-functionally with Operations, Technology, and Business Intelligence teams to transform data analysis into scalable Tableau dashboards and datasets for "run the business" support
Build executive-level presentations and deliverables — from robust analytic models and custom performance analyses to polished, presentation-ready content for global leadership reviews and quarterly business reviews
Support FY planning processes and monthly/quarterly Sales Leader reviews
Requirements
Experience: 2–4 years in analytical roles (Consulting, Finance, or SaaS); 5+ years of professional experience considered for senior-level remit, ideally in consulting or sales strategy/business operations
Technical Stack: Advanced Excel / Google Sheets required; hands-on experience with Tableau, SQL, Snowflake, Alteryx; familiarity with AI-assisted analytics tools
AI Fluency: Comfortable working alongside AI agents and automation tools in day-to-day tasks; ability to evaluate, adopt, and advocate for new AI capabilities responsibly and effectively within a fast-moving team
Analytical Rigor: Strong logical reasoning; ability to spot trends and uncover "the why" within large, complex datasets; proficiency in data visualisation and translating sophisticated information into easily consumable insights
Communication: Excellent written and verbal communication skills in both German and English (required); ability to craft compelling narratives for diverse audiences and distill technical findings into clear executive updates. French is a plus
Stakeholder Management: Strong business acumen and demonstrated experience engaging with senior leaders; ability to build executive-level presentations and lead quarterly business reviews
Entrepreneurial Mindset: High autonomy, curiosity, and a "get-it-done" attitude in ambiguous, fast-paced environments
Team Player: Consistently champions others, leads by example, and thrives in collaborative, cross-functional settings
Flexibility: Ability to work across global time zones
Desired Skills / Experience
Management consulting background strongly considered as an asset
Fortune 100 management experience or deep understanding of Customer Success
Solid understanding of Salesforce products, platform features, and best use cases
Experience with enterprise CRM or customer service applications
