Salesforce Salesforce · Enterprise · Indianapolis, Georgia - Atlanta, Washington - Seattle, California - San Francisco, IN

This role is a Manager, Product & Pricing Operations at Salesforce, focusing on Technical Project Management and Data Analytics within the Lead-to-Cash ecosystem. The role involves collaborating with product managers, optimizing processes, analyzing data, and leading cross-functional initiatives.

  1. Work with product, strategy, and finance stakeholders to design solution recommendations and detect operational gaps in delivering novel products.
  2. Deeply understand Lead-to-Cash operations to design and document scalable new processes, assist with release management, and produce comprehensive process documentation.
  3. Build reports and analyze large datasets to optimize system performance and drive informed decision-making.
  4. Act as a self-directed, team-oriented leader capable of translating the needs of technical and business users into successful project outcomes.
