Why This Role Matters
Public Sector does not currently have a dedicated release marketing or insights function. Field Marketing and Content teams operate without upstream product visibility, customer usage insights, or roadmap context. This role fills that gap by connecting product → content → field execution, ensuring customers receive the right message and the right assets to adopt new capabilities. By driving clarity and alignment across teams, this role will accelerate adoption, improve enablement, and strengthen Salesforce’s leadership across global Public Sector markets.
