Reporting to the SVP of Procurement and Shared Services, this Senior Director is the strategic architect connecting business stakeholders and shared services suppliers
Spearhead the transition to an "Agentic Enterprise"
Identify, design, and deploy Agentic AI workflows — autonomous AI agents capable of executing complex business processes—to dramatically improve operating margins, speed, and accuracy across Finance, Sales Ops, and Procurement
Define the vision for Agentic AI within Shared Services, moving from static automation (RPA) to dynamic, reasoning-based AI agents that manage end-to-end business functions
Serve as the lead advisor on how Agentic AI can reshape the "Finance of the Future," automating complex reconciliations, contract audits, and "Prospect-to-Cash" cycles
Establish the framework for "Human-in-the-loop" (HITL) protocols, ensuring Agentic AI deployments align with Salesforce’s Trust and Equality values, including rigorous accuracy and compliance audits
Conduct deep-dive process mining to identify high-impact areas where autonomous agents can replace or augment manual intervention in Procurement and Shared Services
Collaborate with BPO partners (1000+ staff) to transition labor-intensive tasks to AI-augmented workflows, shifting the partner value proposition from "headcount" to "outcome"
Develop sophisticated ROI models for AI investments, quantifying the impact of reduced cycle times, error rates, and headcount optimization on the enterprise operating margin
Partner with IT and Product teams to ensure Shared Services agents are seamlessly integrated with Salesforce’s internal "Agentforce" and core data architecture.
