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.

At Salesforce, our Account Executives are more than sellers, they are trusted advisors who help organisations transform, innovate and grow.

About the Position:

As an Account Executive, you'll own the end-to-end sales cycle for Salesforce Customer 360, from first conversation to signed order , across our mid-market commercial segment. You'll partner with customers on everything from large-scale business transformations to targeted solutions that solve critical challenges.

No two days are the same for our Mid-Market Account Executives. You will sell the Salesforce Customer 360 platform into a diverse portfolio of mid-market commercial accounts across Australia (201-500 FTE), balancing both new business development and strategic account management.

You will:

• Build trusted, long-term relationships with existing accounts to identify new opportunities and expand Salesforce adoption
• Land new logos, driving growth and reinforcing Salesforce's leadership as the #1 CRM provider

• Maintaining regular customer engagement to nurture high-value, long-lasting relationships
• Conducting territory and vertical research to define a go-to-market strategy and build a pipeline of qualified accounts

About you:

This is a high-energy, high-impact role for a tenured, self-driven, strategic Account Executive with a proven track record of working with the C-Suite and selling complex deals into commercial accounts.

• Deep experience managing complex sales cycles, including navigating multiple decision-makers, solution selling, and driving deals from initial engagement to close
• A history of overachievement, with a focus on not just meeting but surpassing quota expectations
• Exceptional relationship-building skills, establishing trust and credibility with executives and key stakeholders
• Strategic thinking and business acumen, able to identify opportunities, develop territory plans, and prioritise high-impact activities
• Resilience and high emotional intelligence, enabling you to manage challenges, adapt to changing customer needs, and maintain a balanced mindset
• A growth mindset, constantly learning, seeking feedback, and planning for both personal and professional development
• Curiosity and passion for technology, with the drive to leverage Salesforce solutions to solve complex business problems

Preferred experience includes sales methodology training, CRM expertise, and strong customer references, but above all, your ability to deliver results, influence at the executive level, and thrive in mid-market accounts is what makes you successful.
