Description

Salesforce is hiring a Senior Specialist, Corporate Communications to serve as the operational backbone of our customer advocacy engine. Customer success is the foundation of Salesforce's market leadership—and this role is critical to ensuring we capture and amplify the stories of customers transforming into agentic enterprises.

As a core member of the product and technology communications team, you will orchestrate the logistics of campaign-centric storytelling. This includes managing high-volume customer discovery calls, navigating the tactical execution of customer announcements, and maintaining the internal systems that keep our global team aligned.

You're someone who loves creating order from chaos and understands that world-class customer storytelling requires both creative strategy and operational excellence.
