About Salesforce

Salesforce is the #1 AI CRM, where humans with agents drive customer success together. Here, ambition meets action. Tech meets trust. And innovation isn’t a buzzword — it’s a way of life. The world of work as we know it is changing and we're looking for Trailblazers who are passionate about bettering business and the world through AI, driving innovation, and keeping Salesforce's core values at the heart of it all.

Ready to level-up your career at the company leading workforce transformation in the agentic era? You’re in the right place! Agentforce is the future of AI, and you are the future of Salesforce.

About the Role

Salesforce is seeking a dynamic and experienced Regional Vice President (RVP) to lead a high-performing team of 7–8 Platform Account Executives focused on some of our largest and most strategic Enterprise Financial Services customers across AMER. This is a remote position, with a strong preference for candidates located near New York, NY or San Francisco, CA.
This role sits within our Platform Specialist Sales organization and is squarely focused on our Trusted and Developer solutions — the product suite that helps financial services organizations secure their investments in Salesforce and Agentforce. Your team's mission is simple but powerful: help customers secure, access, and protect their data across the Salesforce platform.

What Your Team Sells

Your team of Platform AEs will be specialists in Salesforce's industry-leading security, compliance, and developer solutions, including:

Salesforce Shield – Event Monitoring, Field Audit Trail, and Platform Encryption

Salesforce Backup and Restore – Data resilience and recovery
Data Archive – Long-term data management and storage optimization
Headless & API-First Development – Modern, composable architecture
Vibe (Developer Experience) – Enabling developer productivity on the Salesforce platform

Together, these solutions form the backbone of how enterprises in Financial Services — banks, insurers, asset managers, and fintechs — protect their Salesforce and Agentforce investments and ensure their data is secure, accessible, and compliant.

Your Impact

As RVP, you will set the tone for how we engage with some of the most complex and regulated customers in the world. You will lead, coach, and inspire your team to deliver exceptional results while building deep, trusted relationships with C-level stakeholders in the Financial Services industry.

Lead, develop, and grow a team of 7–8 Enterprise Platform Account Executives covering AMER Financial Services accounts

Partner cross-functionally with Core Sales, Pre-Sales, Marketing, Alliances, and Product to drive customer success

Demonstrated success leading Enterprise AE teams, ideally in a specialist or overlay sales model
Deep experience selling into Financial Services organizations (banking, insurance, asset management, fintech, capital markets)

Excellent communication, executive presence, and negotiation skills
