Description

The VP, Capital Markets & Investments is a senior Treasury leader responsible for two critical pillars of Salesforce's financial strategy: capital structure and global investment management. This leader will be accountable for delivering a capital structure that provides the necessary liquidity and flexibility to support the Company's growth objectives while returning excess capital to shareholders — and for exceeding benchmark returns on Salesforce's global investment portfolio while maintaining the appropriate liquidity and risk profile.

Responsibilities

Capital Structure Strategy & Execution

• Lead share repurchase programs and dividend execution in alignment with Board of Directors and Audit Committee priorities

• Structure and execute debt financing transactions, including public bond issuances, term loans, and revolving credit facilities

• Manage Salesforce's banking syndicate relationships and serve as the primary point of contact for key financial institution partners

• Partner with Legal, Finance, and Corporate Development on M&A-related financing and capital structure implications

Global Investment Management

• Develop and execute global portfolio strategy across Salesforce's investment portfolio, optimizing for yield, liquidity, and risk — targeting returns that exceed benchmark while maintaining an appropriate risk profile

• Lead performance and risk management for the investment portfolio

• Drive liquidity planning to ensure Salesforce can meet its operational, strategic, and regulatory cash needs at all times

• Execute regional cash optimization strategies across AMER, EMEA, and APAC

• Partner with FP&A and the broader Treasury team to provide guidance on Operating Cash Flow (OCF) and Free Cash Flow (FCF) impacts

• Integrate AI and Agentforce capabilities into investment management processes to drive greater efficiency, scale, and data-driven decision-making — consistent with the Finance organization's Customer Zero mandate.

Leadership & Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Partner across Finance (FP&A, Accounting, Tax, Risk), Legal, Corporate Development, and Investor Relations to ensure cohesive capital and investment strategy

• Present capital markets and investment strategies and results to senior leadership, the Board, and external stakeholders

• Champion Finance transformation initiatives, including adoption of AI-powered tools and Agentforce across Treasury operations

• Foster a team culture rooted in the One Finance values: Trust, Ownership, Operational Excellence, and Equality

Qualifications

• 12+ years of progressive Treasury, capital markets, and investment management experience, preferably at a large-cap public company

• Demonstrated experience leading capital markets transactions (debt issuances, revolving credit facilities, term loans, share repurchases)

• Deep expertise in global investment portfolio management, including fixed income, money markets, and liquidity optimization

• Proven experience managing banking and credit rating agency relationships
