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.

The Role

The Senior Director, Global Migration Delivery is a high-impact leader responsible for transforming complex digital migrations into measurable business value for our most strategic customers. Operating at the "front-line" of the Global Migration Organization, you directly lead and scale a high-performing team of Migration Delivery Leads and Managers, ensuring they are equipped to navigate high-stakes technical environments. You serve as a critical bridge between internal Product and Engineering teams, Account Teams, and the customer’s leadership, acting as a trusted advisor and a fractional extension of the customer’s own workforce.

In this role, you are responsible for de-risking the migration journey by identifying technical roadblocks and business misalignments before they impact the timeline. You close the "Execution Gap" by operationalizing cutting-edge AI and automation tools—turning experimental R&D into predictable, accelerated results through your team of experts. By orchestrating a unified front between internal stakeholders and your global delivery squad, you ensure that every migration is delivered with the precision, speed, and technical integrity required for large-scale enterprise transformation.

• Partner with internal teams to drive adoption of internal tools (AI Agents, Assessment Sizers) to ensure platform stability and performance during transitions.

Technical Health, Adoption, and Risk Management

• Tooling Usage & AI Literacy: Drive the use of AI-driven tools to automate routine migration tasks such as account assessment, data mapping, health monitoring, and meeting summaries.
• Escalation Ownership: Serve as the primary interface for major incidents and technical roadblocks to protect customer revenue and project timelines.
• GDC Acceleration: Work alongside the Global Delivery Center (GDC) to offload repeatable engineering tasks, allowing field teams to focus on high-value advisory work.

• Industry Expertise: Deep understanding of the broad impact of cloud migrations on a customer’s business model.
• Communication: Excellent ability to articulate technical issues to diverse audiences and translate complex migration concepts into business terms.

Cloud/Platform & Technical Requirements
