What if you were empowered to solve the most complex problems higher education institutions face today? What if you had the best social and mobile cloud technology stack to achieve that goal? What if you could work for a company that believes that top line growth is as important as giving back to the community? What if you could work alongside the best and brightest in the industry to craft innovative solutions and transformational strategies? All this in a driven, collaborative and rewarding environment... Sounds like fiction, you say? Absolutely not! Here at the Salesforce Foundation, we call it #DreamJob!
The Salesforce Foundation is committed to and focused on increasing the efficiency of the global social sector. To achieve this goal, we are building a social enterprise to deliver Salesforce's world class CRM and technology platform solutions to the higher education & non-profit markets.
We're looking for exceptional candidates to join the Sales Engineering team within the Salesforce Foundation. If you possess intellectual curiosity, great problem solving skills and an unwavering belief that the right technology can solve any problem including world hunger (no really, we mean it!) then you are the ideal candidate for the job. Prior experience with technology and enterprise selling in the higher education industry is highly desirable. Excellent communication and presentation skills are a must. Finally, the ability to take complex technology: explain it in a simple and easy to understand way to propel higher education and non-profit institutions in achieving their mission. If you believe you have these skills, we want to talk to you.
