Job Details

The Slack Growth Business Account Executive role is part of the broader Salesforce ecosystem, where humans and agents work together to help customers succeed.

We’re looking for a proven sales professional who thrives in a fast-moving, high-growth environment; is energized by solving real customer problems; and can earn trust with decision-makers while consistently delivering measurable business value.

As part of Salesforce, you’ll have the opportunity to bring the power of the agentic enterprise to growing businesses—with Slack serving as the System of Engagement that connects people, agents, apps, and data in the flow of work.
